Haven't been posting--too busy knittin'!

Sorry for the long break in posting...I've had a lot of knitting going on though and I'll get started with the
the overnight soaker I'm working on for my toddler...kinda goofed on the rise and made it too long. I'm going to frog out about 2.5 inches, add the cuffs and the decoration.













Next are the Jungle Longies I'm making for the boys.

These were so much fun to dye, but a little tedious to knit because the yarn was a little thin...so it seemed to take forever! I dyed them with lemon lime kool-aid and then over dyed them with splotches of green food coloring to get that "camo" look. I want to embroider a dino on the hip in brown.

I also knitted a little hat for a sweet baby girl born at our church, but I forgot to get a picture of it!



I've got three more projects on the needles: a tiny soaker for the above little girl made in acrylic since mom doesn't want the hassle of wool (my Sunday project), a bulky hat knit with two strands of yarn, and another pair of longies...this time in an Aran weight yarn that should knit up faster! I'll post pictures of these projects another time.
