PW/AW My knitting projects
I decided to try some new patterns for knitting soakers and longies. This is my first attempt at these patterns so I used some cheap yarn. Here's how they came out:
Shorties:
Soaker:

My very first try at longies:

I've watermarked my pictures because there has been a big issue with photo-stealing on TB, and I trust all you ladies but who knows who's lurking!
And because I'm an AW, here's DS in the backyard last Wednesday:
Re: PW/AW My knitting projects
Gah, he's so freaking adorable! I get jealous every time I get a glimpse of your backyard. Are you sure you want to move?!
You're doing much better than I am in progressing with knitting. I'm still working on my first sweater and have had to rip it back so many times now. But I will conquer it!
So freaking cute!
Did you use a self-striping yarn or did you do the pattern that way?

Rock, thanks! And we have the house hunting on the back burner at the moment. We're going back and forth on waiting. Things are finally "normal" and we aren't sure we want to shake it up. So it looks like we'll have at least this summer with our yard!
Dr L, thanks! It's self striping, I wouldn't have the patience to knit that pattern LOL
OMG those are awesome! You must be so proud of yourself! He looks adorable.
People are stealing photos on the bump???
That is SO not a thing! What a freaking nutbag.
I swear to god, the Bump has to be one of the craziest places on the internets. (Aside from Mothering.com - that's the earthy-crunchy one, right?)
Also, your son is adorable, LadyE! And so are those pants - so freaking cute!
OMG the dimples! He is so cute!!!
And great job, I have zero skills when it comes to knitting and things like that.
Thanks ladies!
I'll AW my current projects when I finish. I'm working on a blanket for DH (which is probably 10 minutes worth of work left, but I ran out of yarn!) and really cool longies for DS. They're going to be too big because I may have sized them a little too generously, but I'll put him in the bulkiest diaper I have in my stash before putting them on him haha
