Shock and Awe
I actually still knit.
Sporadically. I find the only time I really have to knit is after the boys go to bed and, if I'm lucky, Baby Sister is chilling in my lap or her crib. And even then, a few rows or rounds, and I find myself dozing off!
I did manage to get something knit in about a week though.
Ok, so normally this would take me one or two evenings tops to knit assuming I received more than three hours of continuous sleep.
The details:
Pattern: On The Sunny Side (Ravelry link)
Yarn: Peaches n'Cream in "Black Cherry" purchased for a whole dollar at the Dollar Store.
Needles: US5
Notes: This was a cute little pattern. I suppose I should have blocked the brim before I popped it on her head for pictures, but I couldn't wait that long!! The only modifications I made was that I didn't knit the body of the hat 2" before I started decreasing. I only knit about 1.5". In retrospect, I should have knit it to the specifications.
She's going to outgrow this quick!!

Love the pics, esp. her obviously kicking her legs blurry bits :0)
She looks like she likes her hat! And she's right-little sisters do rock :)
The hat is cute, but she's even cuter!
Really cute! And her little outfit is adorable! I love the last photo, where it looks like she's smiling.
Look at those feet go. She's going to be running to keep up with the boys.
The hat is cute. I wouldn't think of making it out of cotton. I think in my mind it would be hard to work with. It would have the advantage of being totally washable and very easy care.
Good lord, that's so cute! The hat too :-)
