I completely missed world Wide Knit in Public Day! How is that even possible?! I did knit on Great Gran’s front porch in front of a large contingent of my family, but they are used to it so it probably doesn’t count.

Rookie Mistake

I increased the length from the beginning of the armhole to the shoulder. Sadly, I did not increase the sleeves accordingly.

And I thought I was almost finished.

I wish I had noticed the two inch disparity before I wasted all that time on the edgings. Would it be completely lazy to make this a sleeveless romper? I could just do the little picot stuff all around the armhole edge. It gets real hot this time of year…

den

I’ve been looking at new rugs for the den. It doesn’t seem like jute is very encouraging to crawlers. This is my favorite option so far. And I am thinking of slipcovers for the couch and chair.

Hot Tamale Train

I just finished the second sleeve less than five minutes ago!

I’ve only been working on it since March.

I’ve figured out when I get to knit. Now, when do I vacuum? I can’t do it while she’s asleep because she’s sleeping. I can’t do it while she’s awake because it wastes Ellie time. I think I have to go old school and get out the broom.

Speaking of sleeping, I stopped to check on her on the way to the computer.

I love this baby.
