There's Something About Baggy

I don't have much knitting to show ~ yeah, yeah, what's new?

A Bib O' Love from Mason-Dixon.




And a receiving blanket trimmed in crochet for the girl who is having a baby at work. i hope she doesn't have the baby AT work This is why I work here and she's invested some time showing me the ropes.



I'll also get her diapers. She's going to need them. A lot of them. For a long time. For all my friends over 40, this is why we have biological clocks. There are other reasons too, but let's not go there right now.

This is the Bag Boy as I now call him. Linus is 12 and never quite got what the catnip thing was all about. I wasted more money on catnip toys that went unused for years. ok, so it takes time to train humans We found this "bag" in our local PetCo wherein we ALMOST came home with a conure. I swear, he is only 3 months old and he already plays peek-a-boo and plays dead! I flipped for the little guy, but back to the Bag Boy. The bag is all fabric with a furry rim that bends to hold it open and it's very crispy. It also, unbeknown st to me is laced with catnip.

Linus always loved bags that's THE reason I bought it.

Hello bagggg.



I like this... what's tha....

It crunches and there's something about this bag nomnomnomnomnomnom
This bag makes me tired.

4 Days later...


After I knitted his little a$$ a Kitty Pi Bed, that he doesn't use. Should have washed it in catnip.
Tomorrow, toys!

iKnit



iKnit. Sounds like new wave technology for knitters, when in fact, it doesn't get any slower than this. The Betties are knitting a Log Cabin blanket for a specified charity. I just don't remember which one it is at the moment. I just knit, I leave all the remembering to the girls.
iKnit my loggy part and will pass it on to the next logger. iMay see this again and anticipate the next log will take a bit longer to roll.

In other knitting news, iFinished my second Clapotis!






iKnit it with US size 8 needles and Peaches n Cream bought through their online store. Say it with me. Elmore Pissssssgahhhhhhh it's known in my circle that I love to say that and I usually giggle after I do. But really, iLive in Florida and need cotton. Where else are you going to get a $6 Clapotis?

Mods: Only one. For the straight rows iDid 6 repeats instead of 12. iJust wanted this a little shorter and got a 45" x 27" wrap with more than plenty of yarn to spare. i'llMake a tote bag out of the remainder because iLove the comfy blue color of this yarn.

The new job is going great, how lucky am I to be fed lunch every single working day of my life? And if that were not enough, my boss always says as she's leaving for the night, "Don't be late for quitting time!" A real culture shock iTell ya. I was getting used to coming home feeling less than zero, now it's a whole other sunshiny story. Even the old man has noticed a pleasant difference. Speaking of nice work environments, the girl who I'm replacing because she's having a baby, will get a couple of knitted gifts for her little one.

For starters, the Baby Bib O Love ala Mason-Dixon.

Other small knits to come. And maybe, another Clapotis.


Can you tell iShopped for a phone recently? No no no not the iPhone, just Kid M's 4th cell phone in 2 years. iEyed it though. Per itty cool stuff.
