A bit of rest for knitting, not napping. I decided to forego today’s tasks (e.g., laundry, shopwork, household chores) in favor of sitting and knitting a bit while Gram slept.

Lately, we’ve had a bit of trouble putting Gram in his bassinet for his naps. The problem lay in the transition from arms to bassinet at which point he would wake up and the process of getting him back to sleep began again (and again and again and again). Bedtime is dreadful. We’re not sure what to do. Rather than trying for the uptenth time to put him to sleep, I opted to wrap him up in the sling. He fell asleep instantly, and I spent the afternoon knitting.

And making bread. The recipe can be found here.

Love that bread book, and love reading about your experiences with baby Gram. Put your feet up when you can…never did get that brioche stitch!
I sure don’t blame him for wanting to be in the sling…and the bread looks fabulous. Am going to head out to the shop soon to look for yarn for a baby sweater for a LA boy baby. Cotton maybe, though I don’t like to knit with cotton.
