Finally Finished!

Here are some projects I finally finished!

My brother's apartment warming dishcloths. Thankfully I could procrastinate on these because he does not have an apartment yet. :)

Another baby hat for a friend at church to go with the bib I made earlier. It still needs to be blocked, but judging by the way I am going, I will never get it posted if I don't post it now!

And finally...the Owlie Sack! This has been done for a few months but has been sitting in the "need to block" pile. Look at those pretty owls. I found a pattern for a baby\toddler vest that I may just "have" to do now because the owls were so fun! One of my friends who picked up knitting a few months ago is on an owl kick...come to think of it, her son is turning one in a couple months...hmmm. :)


I have actually been knitting almost every day again. Still working on the giraffe kit. I have the head, body, two arms and one leg done and am afraid I am running out of yarn. So, the adventure of finding matching yarn to complete the giraffe has caused me to put him on hold. I started a sun hat last night for our baby boy, who by the way should be making his debut in 5 weeks! He doesn't have alot of knitwear yet...I am sure this will change. :)

That's all for now, thanks to all of those who read this!

Time Flies...

Where did April go? I think I knit a total of 5 times in April. Things have been VERY busy to say the least. April included Easter and other family get-togethers, a wonderful baby shower with friends from high school (who thankfully put up with a pregnant lady with a rib out of place) garage sales and multiple trips to multiple stores for multiple baby items. I think we are about done with those. :0)

I also started couponing in April which took a lot of time at the beginning but I think I am getting better at it! No, I am not like those people on TV and do not aspire to ever be that crazy or insane. BUT it still has been fun and profitable! I got my mom into it...I think she is crazier than me!

May has started out just as busy including a trip to my friends house and re-painting the baby's room. One would think things have to slow down but in about a month, things will be even busier with a newborn! Looking forward to it!

Just a quick note to let ya'll know I have not disappeared and will post knitting pics soon. I finally blocked the Owlie Sack, finished a baby hat for a gift, and two dishcloths for my brother. I received a kit from my sister-in-law and her husband for my birthday that I started the other day. It is a stuffed giraffe and is my first project of its kind. I am looking forward to seeing how it turns out, will keep you posted! Hopefully better than last month.
