so, just want to post, and can’t think of a super pertinent topic, so here is some random pictures from random days. yay.
washcloths:
sweater i worked on for katie a year and a half ago and finally last week put the second sleeve on and wove all of the ends in….
chickens at the window….telling me to feed them
baby adrianna – raaaaa!!!!
and then, just because i like this picture….
hope everyone has a lovely monday
Since Allen is in Kindergarten this year, we’ve had a lot of fun trying to be crafty and make valentines for his class….I have to say, I think it’s been way more work for me than him, but he is so excited about hole punching that it’s just fun…..Here they are:
I stole the idea from the Purlbee (both ideas really) – the little hearts are for each kid in the class and we’re going to tie them to bubbles – the big cards are for the teachers and I haven’t figured out what to do for them exactly, but it will contain either caffeine or chocolate because that is what i would want for valentines day 
(maybe flowers if you’re reading this scott….:P)
So, Happy Valentines day to everyone because even if it is just a Hallmark Holiday, it’s so fun to be crafty with kids and just show someone (or everyone as the case may be in kindergarten) how much you care for them.
So, all the sudden I just want to knit things that my kids can wear – way to start early huh?
I’ve made this last week:
a pair of socks and matching mittens for katie (almost made, the thumbs need to be finished on the mittens)
I’ve finished a hat for my self, I’ve been pouring over knit pants patterns and finally decided on good old Elizabeth Zimmermann’s longies for baby pattern which i plan to start tonight……Allen has requested socks and mittens too and I plan to make them each a sweater by next winter….
maybe it’s just the season – the cold is finally settling a little bit and i miss that there is no snow so in dreaming about it I want to knit warm things for kids…..hm. oh well.
Pictures later.
