I have been working for what seems like an interminable about of time on a very large baby order for someone. Normally, baby stuff is fun, quick, and well, adorable. I think I’m past all that and on to the annoyed and impatient. Can you imagine?
Picture yourself knitting 12 baby sets + six pair of the exact same leg warmers in different colors. Wait! Let’s make that 9 pair of the exact same leg warmers. All this should be ready for next Friday, September 15th. I’m half way. What do you think the chances are that I’ll be done? Slim to none. I wonder how she’ll take that.
Honestly, I’m SO over baby booties that it may be years before I agree to make another set.
Here’s a peek at what I’m talking about:
Cute right? Not really!!!
Dear socks: I miss you so much.
Sophisticate: I know you’re missing buttons… I’m so sorry. I promise that on the 16th, you’ll get buttons.
Felted Slippers (they have no name yet): I wrote out your pattern yesterday. I promise you’ll have your moment in the spotlight at my workshop on September 22nd.
In the meantime, back to my booties! Grrr.
