I just can't stop myself

Finished the Turkish Slippers in about 5 days - you just can't beat that! Then my little man wanted a pair just like Dad's. Except he wanted to choose his own yarn. So he picked this, which as you can see, is not blue or cotton. Olive green merino. I've adapted the pattern to fit his little feet (by trying them on as I go), and I'm almost done with number two. Love, love, love the speed!!!!!

Oh what a feeling!

The baby boy is feeling better, or at least his mood is improved. Little man still has a cold, but he's always the sweetest thing ever.

I was prowling around the yarn closet last night, and pulled out one of the (four - ouch) boxes of UFOs.

I FINISHED TWO HATS!!!

The cloche is made out of Blue Sky cotton



and this hat... is made out a very soft yarn. It's been years since I started it (shame, shame), and I set it down because it was puckering and I didn't know how to fix it. I can't find the original pattern, and I have a tendency to modify every pattern I use (which I vaguely remember doing with this one).




I'm not a big frogger in any case. I like the planning and starting out parts best (hence the four (ouch) boxes of UFOs).
