I’ll begin by highlighting my Vivian, my most important and consuming WIP.
She’s awesome.
She’s also not the only baby in the family, my cousin had baby Ryan three weeks later. I started a simple log cabin baby blanket for him (based on How to Log Cabin in Mason-Dixon Knitting) shortly after Vivi was born. It is excellent maternity leave mindless knitting.
The floor tiles are 12-inch squares, so you can see that it is about 2 1/2 feet to a side now. I feel like I should add at least one more strip to each side. That would make it a small but respectable stroller blanket at 32ish inches to a side. I’ll see them at Easter, I can finish it by then.
Meanwhile a good law school buddy had baby Andrew, and I started a Moderne Baby Blanket (also log cabin style) for him. I’m thinking this as a color scheme.
Vivi is starting to sleep for longer stretches, and a couple hours of garter stitch and stupid TV after she goes to bed does wonders for my outlook.
OMG those cheeks! She is adorable and the blanket is lovely. I loved mindless knitting when my son was an infant. Heck I still like it and he is 4 now.
Oh MY! She is absolutely beautiful, congratulations. Love her name, too!
She’s *so* cute! The blanket looks great too.
beautiful baby! beautiful blanket!!!
