These hats are miniature—really home
from the hospital and won't fit in month hats.. Which is fine,
because when the baby's are a month old, it will be Valentines
day—and I will have heart hats for them, and when they are 2 months
old, they will be sporting hats with shamrocks, and the next month
hats with colorful Easter eggs. Not the I am obsessed with making
them hats or anything...
Good thinking--blanket 1 is likely
going to need ever inch of 4 skeins—and blanket 2 the same. Then I
will have 2 +2 skeins left over.. (for the spare blanket) --
There are still booties to knit, and a
nice hood with dickie—scarves are out for infants, but something
that covers head and neck will be useful—And I have some skeins of
Paton's Décor (acrylic) for baby sweaters, and I keep finding cute
patterns that I want to knit! And, and, and!
I treated myself to some wool, for me,
too. Lion Brand 1878 wool has been discontinued—I love this wool
and at half price—well-- a few cones (each over 2000 yards) have
found there way into my stash.
I love the green shell I knit for
myself in the Lion Brand sock yarn last year—and I want to knit
some more and I will-- But a charcoal grey sweater –knit with 2
strands held together—so it's not so fine as sock yarn—but finer
than DK, will be very useful and I now have the yarn for it. I
bought some cones of the white, too. No plans for the white—except
that some of the yarn won't remain white!
