Pattern:  Lacey Round - mid-March KAL at the Monthly Dishcloth
Yarn: Lion Cotton
Needles: Clover Bamboo US6
Start/Finish:  Mar/Apr
Notes:  I made the green one first then made another in yellow because I thought it would look like a sunshine. =)  The yellow cloth used a provisional cast-on and a three needle bind-off.

Here is the start of my pinwheel blanket (started Apr 4th).  Since it has so many colors in it I figure I when I finish I’ll add a border in what ever Project Spectrum color is current.  Clear as mud?  

Like the basket?  I found it Trader Joe’s on clearance . . . woohoo . . . I’m planning on making a cloth liner for it too.  I have a weakness for baskets, especially if they’re cheap.

. . . the pity party, that is.

Frack ‘em!  No baby knitting here, at least for them.  I’ll spend a few dollars and get them a token gift, and if I am invited to the ‘family baby shower’ I’ll be so sorry that I already had plans and, gee, we just can’t change them.

If the furniture isn’t picked up by the end of the month I’ll list it on Craigs List and I think I’m just gonna list the clothes on e-bay, unless there is anyone out there who is preggo or just had a baby that needs them.  If so just leave a comment and I’ll e-mail you.ÂÂ
