bought the yarn 2 years ago

and started one for my college roommate’s new daughter in a pretty seafoam green. now to actually finish it before she goes into kindergarten….



made 2 years ago

a very glamorous potholder on saturday. Hardly a full baby blanket, but at least I dragged out the yarn and made something for the first time in months. yippee!



he's home!!! 3 years ago

After 5 weeks and two days, the Little Fellow is home and well with his Mom and Dad. Bless his adorable little second cousin heart! Now, back to that blanket- lol.



Made some progress 3 years ago

Spent an hour or so crocheting last night so that maybe when Tyler comes home in a few weeks he’ll have something to keep him warm. I started it really wide though, so I may be doing more work than I planned on this.



the baby is still in the hospital 3 years ago

due to some lung difficulties, but little Tyler is getting stronger every day. His blanket should be done ny the weekend if I am very diligent, which means I can still send it in time to have it serve as a “welcome home” gift. All positive vibes, prayers, candles, chants, or other personal blessings are welcome for the little second cousin of mine. I know his parents are looking forward to getting to hold him more once he recovers from the lung surgery and bringing him home as soon as possible.



The baby came early!!! 3 years ago

By a month, so now we’re in full-on crunchtime. The little guy is doing well and was quite the screamer when he joined the world- good for a baby they thought might have lung problems! Hopefully I can finish up by the ned of the week and send it as a “Welcome Home” gift! My mom suggested I make him a first day of school outfit, as slow as I’ve been moving on this- lol.



ok- I'm totally sidetracked 4 years ago

I have crocheted a scarf for myself, tested out my new silk ball yarn, and gathered a pile of projects. All while the blanket sits 1/4 done. This baby’s coming in February, so I need to ramp it up.



bought new yarn 4 years ago

and started over today- I’m about 1/4 of the way done on this one… it’s soft a delightful. Maybe grown-ups need baby blankets too. I could use one some nights.



It's a boy 4 years ago

she e-mailed over the sonagram pics today. I can’t believe my cousin (only two weeks younger than me) is about to be a Mom. i can’t even keep plants alive.



ok, the baby is actually 4 years ago

not due until February or March, so there’s still time. But, I would like to finish this up before school starts in the fall and I become a raving idiot with no soul struggling to finish law school.
