Anyway, I imagine everyone who was a live in the '80s knows how mermaids are supposed to talk. In case you forgot... here's what it sounds like:

Baby Jeans Part 2

Dusting off this poor neglected blog.... wow, it's been a while.

I have to post this follow up to one of my last finished projects. Baby jeans are even cuter on baby butts. This boy is such a chunk, I hope he can wear them again - if it ever gets cold enough!


Maybe it's the crisp fall air, a new job situation or a little more sleep now that Cormac is older, but I'm getting back to the knitting. I started my first new serious project since Cormac was born, inspired by all the trendy knit hats that are all over the fashion mags. The Zigzag beanie from Interweave to cover up messy hair. I might actually finish this one before the month is up. Although, I worked most of it during the Texas v. Tech game.... my gauge is probably way too tight...
