The other night Jim was doing dishes and chucked a wet, slimy paper towel at me. I peeled it off my arm and chucked it back at him and of course, missed. I went to go clean up my arm as he continued to do dishes and I assumed that he’d peel the towel off the wall. He didn’t. I just found it today. yuck.

placket neck sweater

Here’s one off my list of baby sweaters to make. I gave this to my friend Kari, Saturday at her baby shower.

The pattern is from Last Minute Knitted Gifts, but if you plan to knit it, please check the website for corrections. Basically the whole pattern is wrong. It was totally silly of me not to check the corrections first, I knew that the book has lots of mistakes. So I pretty much knit this sweater twice.

The yarn is Rowan Cash Cotton, oh my is it soft! (35% cotton, 25% polyamide, 18% angora, 13% viscose, 9% cashmere) and most importantly machine washable. I made the 2nd biggest size, so it’s about 12 months.

I’m working on my knit list, wow is it long! I’ve still got 3 baby sweaters to go (although two are in various stages of completion.) The rest of my list can be found here. There needs to be more knitting time in the day.
