My Turtle sweater !

Look at this, I have been hard at work knitting and finishing this pullover. The turtle design was giving me such problems that I had to just put them aside for a few months. Finally last weekend I declared to myself that it's not going to get done sitting there in my yarn stash box. So I worked diligently for 2 days straight and got it finished. So in love with it! And I also burned the pattern so as I will not get tempted to do another one. However, I've already promised my niece that I will make her a Totoro pullover. I know, what have I done right.

Meanwhile, I've been knitting the Turkish bed socks one pair after another since my oldest keeps stealing them from me. Somehow he loves wearing them so I'm going to have to knit up some hot pink ones so I can have them to wear.

I'm also working on fingerless mittens for lena. Will have to get some pix up to show you the design. I've been absolutely in love with it but after having done one in blue sock yarn, I forgot the name of yarn, I decided that it didn't match her at all and it was too tight. So I spent a few more days contemplating on a different yarn and finally decided to use my lovely Madelinetosh Merino Light on her. After all, lena is my favorite niece.

Anyway, have been quiet in the blogging world because Adam has been teething like crazy and have been cranky and clingy and therefore I could only sit and hold him and not get anything done. All those teeth better grow in quickly and give me back my sweet boy.
