It's beginning to look alot like....

Glengarry and Yorkshire for Brooke - Discontinued Jaeger Roma

Lionbrand's One Stitch Baby Cardigan for Peyton - Cotton Ease

Yankee Knitter's Child's Cable for Makayla - Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece


Here are the Christmas Stockings for Peyton and Makayla! Cigarette pack added for size comparison hehehh... They're too young to have picked up this bad habit! - Red Heart Super Saver



I made two of these hats in Caron's Simply Soft...the second hat is the opposite of this one, white with red norwegian snowflakes :)
I'm also in the midst of "un-designing" chair pads for our dining room. Lou and I were looking at the ones in Target and Wal-Mart, so our chairs dont get more scratched then they already are, and I was NOT impressed. The pricing is just plain silly...$10.00 at a minimum for simple circles? Yeah.. I dont think so. I'm taking Elizabeth Zimmerman's Pi Shawl idea and just 'finishing' it wayyyyyy smaller. I have one completed, but I'm not going to post pics until I get the "Lou Approval" tag LOL I've got to weave the ends on that one and throw it into the washing machine to see if the edges will even out. Right now, the edges are rather on the wavy side and while I'm okay with this, to an extent (Red heart super saver is phenomenally cheap and has gotten softer over the last few years, so I'm looking at like $5.00 total for three or four chair pads. Hella better then the minimal $40.00 I WAS looking at.
