Jo Knits!

Sunday, sundays

Here's proof that I have knitted and completed half of something. Zoe's first clog went super quick and well. The clog took every single each of the 1st ball of yarn, so much so that some seams were knitting single strand. The second went bonkers, I started the short row shaping at the wrong place and it all went down from there. It's in a corner until I have the will to rip and remake. So, I did what I do best...

Started yet another project, big surprise! LOL! Wednesday Carl and I went for a wonderful walk at Westmount Park. We stopped by the library and I finally got my hands on The Baby Knits Book from Debbie Bliss (be sure to check the erratas). I started the Alphabet blanket right away, this is for Carl's boss and they are expecting in May, I really want to finish this prior to the birth of the baby. They are having a surprise baby and painted the room yellow so I am using the soft yellow colorway in honor of their favorite color. There's a beautiful sweater called Cable and rib sweater with hood in the book and I hope to knit it for Lucas. The pattern goes up to 4years, Lucas is 5 but not on the big size. I think it would suit him really good too, perhaps knit in a cotton blend so he could wear it on chilly summer nights. :)

As you can see, sunday cartoons are much more interesting when you can cozy up too daddy. Today Carl starts work later so we make this big sunday breakfast. Sundays are special that way, we always look forward to an enjoyable meal together. :)

hugs,
