january to february knitting

so my yarn didn't come in for the Elizabeth Zimmermann's January Aran sweater, so I am moving on to February Baby sweater. I think Katrina and her doll (if I have time to make one) will like this sweater - very nice - garter stitch yoke and a nice pattern for the body of the sweater. I will be making it two tone and hopefully will start in a couple of days.

knitting in 2011

i have to say i can't believe it is 2011 and I can't believe my first baby is 13 and my newest baby will be 3 this year.

so this is the year of knitting for myself apparently! I have knit myself the EZ swatch cap while I am waiting on my sweater yarn to come in and kind of see where my gauge is for the aran sweater. This is my newest baby modeling it for me! :)


i am also knitting a hooded cowl as a KAL with my friend Sandy with some yummy yarn I got from sheepytime knits as part of my speshul snowflakes club - here it is so far.........


and.......I am knitting my 2 1/2 year old a "spring butterfly" and have the bodice done and am now working on the body of the button sweater. I'll post pictures later........so what do you have on your needles?
