You’ll have to forgive me if this post is short. I’m just getting off my last night shift before our SPINNING WEEKEND! I’m excited, tired, and a bit stressed. I haven’t packed a single thing. I’m going to get up in 5 hours, pack for my spinning weekend in White Lake with the spinning guild girls (+my mom cause she’s super-special) and pack for the two-day conference I’m heading to the minute I’m back from the spinning weekend. Damn! I need to focus a bit on better time management.
So, in the last few weeks, I’ve worked on the monster truck some. I finished the tires. They’re hilarious! They look like giant, floppy dumbbells. I’m still not finished. But, I choose to look at it this way: I’m closer than I was last week.
I also started a pair of socks. I don’t NEED more socks. I lost count at 30. Seriously right? Every couple of weeks, when I do laundry, I have enough hand-knit socks for an entire load. Can you imagine having enough wool socks for a whole load of laundry all to themselves?? I don’t care. I’ll never stop knitting socks. Maybe I should start making them for sale. There’s an idea.
I also made a bunch of baby things. My “client” always sends me pictures of things she likes on Etsy. I look at them and try to replicate those items the best I can. Let me know how I did.
Etsy links:
Boy’s Football Hat
Girl’s flower hat
Mine:
I think they turned out really perfect. I’m feeling very smug after making those. I used NO pattern. I’m not a crocheter but I just made these up as I was going. I think that makes me very smart, clever and creative. I’m totally tooting my own horn right now.
I also started (and finished except for sewing) a baby dino hat. It’s so freaking adorable, I’m not sure I can stand it. I got the pattern on Etsy. It was super-easy. I’ll post a picture when it’s all done.
For now, I must sleep. I’m pooped!
Have an awesome weekend everyone! I can’t wait for mine.
