Yippee Just in time>>>
Baby B is due Tuesday !
I picked this color because it is a favorite of the parents. I just gave it to her a minute ago. She was over joyed.
There is a certain feeling you get went you make and bestow such a gift. The recipient is usually so grateful that you fell a little guilty. You know you want to say "aw shucks weren't nothin'". There is a pleasure in the giving that is sometimes a little too delicious.
Well one down, 3 to go. Baby sweaters that is. The pink EZ is done but for a little finishing. I intend to make another one in Lamb's pride superwash in the colorway Purplexed.
I am working on another BJS in kelly green and birght teal. Yowzer ! Plus I have a red sweater on the needles with a delightful bulky got out of the sale bin at Patternworks during my birthday trip. I am using the the Budd Book for that one. It is baby sweater central at Chez Hammer.
I am coming around the bend with my Black Bamboo T. I am just tingling about it.
Do you know that ridiculous feeling, I mean if you ever get it, where you are reluctant to finish an object, because you so enjoyed the knitting of it, that you linger , dawdle toward the end ? I am getting a little misty at the thought of finishing this project. But I will be wearing it at the end of the month.
I am working on some socks for myself as well. I forget the name of the yarn, a DK weight,but the colorway is called 'Hot Mama'.
But of Course.

Of course you are working with "Hot Mama". I mean, so obvious.
Very cute baby surprise! Is that the one I saw you finishing up on the T?
Any dawdling I have at the end of a project is not because I'm loathe to see it go - it's because I can only get myself to do a row at a time before something shiny and new takes its place!
The baby sweater looks great! Congrats on getting it done in time.
Yes I definitely think there's something about being reluctant to finish a project. With me it sometimes comes from being a little afraid that it won't come out the way I hope, but more often it's because I've been so involved with working on it.
But in my day job they say "Software means you never have to say you're finished."
... which by the way is a snowclone, a word which I only know because of surfing around Wikipedia yesterday because of something Crazy Aunt Purl said
