No More Nekkid-ness

Have I mentioned that I love Susan B. Anderson? Her designs, like this little guy and the sweater, are just too stinkin' cute!

Oh well. I think all my baby shower-type knitting is over and done. What's next you ask?

I'm actually thinking of finishing one of my hibernating projects.

(Gasps everywhere) No, really. I've had this hankerin' to finish a baby blanket that I had designed for a contest, but I got bored and didn't finish it before the deadline. I think it's cute! I just don't like big projects. But, I don't like UFO's (un-finished objects) either...

So what if I'm grumpy?

What? You'd be grumpy too if you didn't have any arms or legs...

I'm a Fearless Crocheter! No, wait. I'm a knitter!

Well, for this project, I was both:




I have NEVER crocheted anything before, but I was determined to do it around the petals of this pacifier clip. And it looks pretty good if I do say so myself :-)

It's the Flower Pacifier Clip in Susan B. Anderson's "Itty Bitty Nursery." Too cute! This goes with the Upside-down Daisy Hat from my last post to soon-to-be Baby Brooke. I'm pretty sure they actually CAN use pacifiers in SPRINGTIME.IN.TEXAS....

Already cast on from the same book: Grumpy Old Bear for the soon-to-be Baby Sophie...

I Have a FO, But You Can't See It.

Well, I did it: I finished a project that I modified. It's for the Ravelry group "Itty Bitty Knits" charity knit-a-long. I started with the hat from the "Pure and Sweet Layette" in Susan B. Anderson's Itty Bitty Nursery, and shrank the pattern for a preemie. Sort of. I guess.

I'd show a photo, but right now my camera is in Durham, probably forgotten during a Duke Blue Devils men's basketball game. I'll post a photo when my camera makes it safely home, with my boys :-)

Not a creature was stirring...

except maybe this newly completed mouse from Susan B. Anderson's "Itty Bitty Nursery!"



So, tonight the still-stirring mouse and I wish you a very Merry Christmas!!!
