I'm taking a chance here that a certain someone who is expecting her first child is too busy dialating to check out my blog today. I made her a few goodies that I put into the post today.
This is elephante! He is cute. and purple. If I ever make one of these again I will use an even smaller needle size because I don't like how visible the stitches on his trunk are.
I do like how cute his ears turned out...the patetrn called for crocheted ears and I don't know how to crochet. The whole guy was finished when I got to that part, and my first thought was "Great. You've got to be kidding". But I used my fantastic knitting knowledge (read:I got lucky) and came up with a solution. Viola!
His little tushie is very cute. I had to add a button to his tail. Very Eeyore.
And my first baby beanie! Seriously. Incredibly fast to knit and cute as can be. I will make more of these for sure.Bart's birthday is on Monday so we are having a brunch for the families on Sunday instead of a dinner. (That sounded very 'Sopranos'. We aren't Italian.) At first I didn't relish the idea, but It grew on me. I'm running out of things to feed people that are different every time, so brunch works. I'm going to cook up a lot of it tomorrow after soccer and reheat in on Sunday morn.
It should be a chilly soccer weekend. Gonna have to pull out my Uggs!
Have a good one!
