Wip and finished projects

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!!!!   Well due to the holidays I have not been keeping up with posting at all.  For that I apologize!! I haven't really sewn and knitted in 2 weeks either but since my last post I have finished and started a few things.  First for knitting projects.  I knitted 2 pairs of those mitts for Christmas gifts and yes one color is the same one I seem to keep knitting. 

 



 
 The gray mitts are a size medium that is why they look big on my hands!!  In addition to knitting and finishing my knits I have also finished the sweater I was knitting for our baby!! I am pretty happy with it, the only thing I forgot was to buy buttons so I will purchase those in the next few days.

 I can't wait to put it on the baby!! Since I finished this sweater I started knitting a hoodie blanket for the baby. I haven't gotten to far but hope to pick it up over the weekend.


 Finally, I have finished sewing the letters on my baby's bedspread 2 weeks ago. Today I finally order the applique`s that I will sew on the blanket. 
I have also cut and pinned some bibs that I did not take a picture of . In addition to this I have bought 10.5 yards of diaper cloth , washed and cut the fabric for burp clothes.  I hope to get them ironed, cut, and pinned this weekend. I should have more to share with you later this week. Happy New Year!!!

WIP just knitting!

Well sorry it has been a while. I have not been knitting  that much, unfortunately. I did however finish a few projects that I had discussed in the previous post.  First I finished the fingerless mitts for my sister.




Next,  I finished both polar bear hats I was knitting for a friend. One was for her daughter the other was a gift for a newborn.  The first set is the one made for her little girl which I made for 3-6 months.
The second is for the newborn. and the last pic is of the two next to each other!


Finally, I worked just a little on the baby hat I am knitting for our baby. Its looking mighty nice!!!


I am sorry this was not a more exciting post, but  I will have more for you in a few days. Hopefully it will be more exciting. I am just tired and its getting late. Until next time!!!
