november!

really, november??! i can't believe it! i have been very busy, as usual. i am working on some toys for a hand made toy swap i am participating in with some other local mamas~ it is just another attempt to avoid any toys made in china this holiday! we are also getting ready for niko's 12th birthday. she will be 12 on the 12th!




and i have a couple knits in the works:




this is a wooly wonder everlasting soaker. it is supposed to fit up to 40 pounds so we will see how it works for my chunky boy! i am knitting it with gradient dyed peace fleece in my woodstock colorway.

and this is a pair of knucks! i took this pic a couple days ago and actually have this knuck completed and will cast on the second today... i hope! i LOVE this pattern! it is really easy and quick and i predict a pair of knucks for my whole posse this season! this is cascade 220 in heathered lime. i am knitting them on size 5's and they are perfect!


both of these wonderful patterns happen to be written by the same mama! pamela, have i reminded you how cool you are lately?!
