slow knitting

I've got a few knitting projects on the go in anticipation of keeping my idle hands busy while my newborn sleeps quietly in the next room and my toddler quietly plays by herself... 

Ha! 

I don't have a deadline for any of these projects precisely because it may take me a year (or more) to complete any of them. Oh I suppose it'd be nice if the vest fit my kid this fall, but it's coming out so large that I think I've bought myself an extra year without meaning to. 


a soft, soft alpaca cowl for me


a plum vest for the toddler (made before, but this time I'll try some mods)



and an orange and white chevron blanket, stroller-sized


And yes, for those of you keeping track, I'm still pregnant. I've become walking proof of statistical outliers.

Wait - when was the baby due? How much of an outlier are you?

Why didn't they induce you?

4 more days, and then they can induce, right? So much for my dream that you'd have the baby 3 weeks early - I've definitely lost the baby pool! :)

If it makes you feel any better, *I* always go late, and my SISTERS go a month early.
