The family that knits together, stays together. The every day rants, raves and regular activities of a family that refuses to be anything other than who we are which is just a little rebellious.

WIP weekend, new baby style
Poor little Cosette has had a time with jaundice meaning lots and lots of time laying naked in UV light. Our heat has been boosted up considerably and the rest of us feel like it is the middle of summer. Only more dry. A lot more dry. This has given several of us time to sit next to our newest little one and knit or read while keeping her company in the light. I have to say my knitting has slowed down but like my blogging, I promise I have a good reason.
Daddy keeps watch while working on a belated Christmas gift for a friend, another elf hat ornament which is now a FO.
My WIP (one of them and the only one I photographed) has been frogged TWICE since this photo and it is just a simple little baby cap. Driving me crazy. I'm about to frog the body of it again and instead of following the pattern this time I'm going by my gut and see if I can figure out what is wrong. It will be an adorable little pilot style cap when I finally finish it (again) and is part of a set for Miss Cosette. Some of my other WIPs include gifts for the birth team and I'm probably going to cast on another pair of newborn pants just for something easy to knit.
No photos of any other WIPs though O and L both have things going. Jeremy just finished a great pair of pants for E that I'll photograph tomorrow to share, they are simply brilliant and lots of fun.
I've noticed on the blogs of other knitters, those far more prolific than I in their knitting and blogging, making a list of your FOs (finished objects) is the thing to do at the end of the year. Being the rebel that I am, I shan't be doing that. It would be depressing, I can't even remember what I've done and figuring it out sounds like work. So no, there won't be a FO list here. There wouldn't be much on it anyway. Instead, I'll leave you with a bunch of new baby photos.

Beautiful photos! Truly. You have quite the eye for composition.(you don't need me!)
ReplyDeleteI do need you! You have so much more to bring with your beautiful work. Besides, can you imagine how the photos would have turned out if I was taking them last Monday? Laugh your head off now please. Thank you for the compliment. It is the eye that made me a decent gallery curator, unfortunately, having the eye for composition isn't all that is required to be a decent photographer, there is a lot more involved that I don't have.
ReplyDeleteI love these!!! I can not wait to meet her.
