So sorry to be so quiet lately: I’ve been slowly working on this beautiful afghan for my friend Deb. There are eight panels, and I’ve three left to seam. After that, a pretty border is all that needed, and it’ll be ready for its recipient.

Poor guy is teething right now which has caused a few restless nights… and more to come since no pearly whites have yet appeared. However, he’s been great at maintaining a happy, interactive disposition. Just look!
As you can see, he also enjoys dropping toys and looking over the edge to see where they’ve landed.
Gram’s baseball raglan is finally completed. At the rate he’s growing, I project he’ll fit this 18m/o size by his 1st birthday in December. It amazes me how quickly he grows! The raglan was a fun knit, and Lorna’s Laces yarn made it even more enjoyable. Though it could technically be considered finished, I’m debating over whether to include a cute little pocket on the sleeves or elbow patches. No rush necessary; I have a few months.
In the end, I didn’t mind the hassle of intarsia because it just looks so darn cute. I may even make more sweaters with motifs, albeit small motifs.
Yarn: Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Worsted, one skein of each color
Gauge: 5.5sts/”
Size: 18 m/o
Pattern: own, may be available after July’s intarsia class
Yum!

Here we all are, knitting away on the wonderful shawl that Sandra designed for the knit along. We’re having a great time doing it!
Missing from the pics - a few other folks including Seattle girls, Debra, Siri and me. Oh, and Joelle is not knitting the shawl… she’s making a capulet for her little girl.
I’m Luvin’ It!
