I really love that it’s back to school. I really don’t like getting everyone ready for 8am.
Yea for knitting with wool!! It’s chilly at night now, so I appreciate have a nice article of wool sitting in my lap.
This is the sleep sack progress.
What’s that hole for? A buckle from the car seat and/or stroller. I don’t really know if it’ll will work, or if I put the hole at the correct length. We shall see.
I also finished this baby hat. Doesn’t fit my 16m old. I guess I imagine her as a little headed baby, when in fact she is a big headed toddler. Sigh.
And my mother wants me to make a vest for her. I’m honored that she thinks my knitting is wearable by her. She is an excellent seamstress and I don’t even come close. She has made her fair share of clothes for me and my family so this is definately owed to her.
With that said. She has no concept of knitting. The cost, the time, the shaping. So I’m trying trying to be patient. I feel like I’m 7yr old sewing a felt pillow for Mother’s Day.

Oh dear, it sounds like your mum is full of expectation. Luckily my mother is not – she can knit for herself. But my sister, well, we give hand made Christmas pressies, and I asked her if she wanted anything in particular. She asked for a Rose Red beret – at least a week’s knitting for me in that hat! I love the pattern, just as well. But it takes the same amount of time as a seamless sweater!

LOL, my mom is always dubious when I tell her I’m going to sew / knit something for her
It looks like your projects are progressing brilliantly ^_^
