Baby Hats!
my faux-flap hat. it incorporates “ear flaps” into the design (sort of like ganomey). It’s worked top-down in DC throughout.

here’s my updated list of to-do’s before Andrew gets here:
so, in the past 5 days, I’ve only finished the shorts and made progress on the blanket. However, I’ve also made 2 pairs booties, a hat, and a bonnet (for another baby). that’s 4 things that weren’t even on my list! The offer was made on the house we were looking at, yesterday, so I suspect I’m going to be knitting, crocheting, and sewing a TON this week and next. I am SO nervous.

I’ve made some pretty good progress on my projects the past couple of days. See, we’re in the process of buying a house. We found one we love, but there has been set back after set back and that produced a ton of anxiety and general “OMG WHAT TO DO” in my head. to keep my mind occupied, I tackled my list and even started [and finished!] other little projects.
here’s my updated list of to-do’s before Andrew gets here:
#s 5-8 are still not done. I need some more double-sided tape for the announcements and I need some old receiving blankets or other flannel for the nursing pads. I can’t relax. nope!

so, I had the great idea to make some mug cozies as gifts for people on Christmas. I made 3, thinking that’s all I’d need for my son’s grandparents. Well, Jason saw them and said that I should make them for so and so and by the time he finished listing names, I needed to have 14! I started on Thursday and only need 2 more to make. The photo on the right shows my original 3.
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas! stay safe!

Pattern:
My own. chullo-inspired.I really, really, loved the colors choices here. They rang in autumn verrry nicely for me. I hadn’t even realized it was already fall until I started making these. I hope their recipients get good use out them. The sweater should fit a 3+ month old, while the hat will fit a 3+ year old.

i was informed, on saturday, that my cousin’s baby shower will be THIS WEEKEND! total craft chaos ensued, today. i made a sweater! i finished a [little] blanket! i nearly killed myself (or rather, i slipped on my messy floor) trying to get a good photo. i did not succeed. but i want to show you guys, because i’m really excited.
i started and finished a little star blanket because i have a HUGE crochet blanket in progress for the new bub. it’s about half way done, but i wanted to make a different blankie, just in case i don’t finish the other.

this time with initials! he somehow lost his other one already, but i’ve received unconfirmed reports it’s behind the downstairs television. i asked him if he wants another and he said “a pink one!” haha i think it might be because i had some pink thread (yes, it’s embroidery cotton my needle is 1.75mm) in sight. i’ll probably make it entirely pink.
