Abby’s sweater photo

Abigail allowed me to take her picture today in her new sweater, tho’ I couldn’t get her to be serious.

The sweater is a little big for her. She’ll probably be able to wear it for a couple of years.

Not that it’ll get much use, because it’s “itchy”, which totally sucks, for both of us.

I’ve started on Liv’s sweater, but since it’s going to be random stripes of about 7 yarns to use up more stash, I’m thinking it’ll be less headache if I knit it in the round. I can only imagine how old counting rows to match stripes will be by the time I’m done. So I’m going to rip and redo, as I’m only a couple inches into it.

I’m not feeling very motivated though.

I need to clean my house, and throw away about half of my girls’ bedroom, since they clearly do not have enough drawers to contain their possessions. Once it’s more organized around here, maybe I’ll be able to relax enough to knit again. I have a stack of projects promised to my children in front of me. They all want legwarmers, fingerless mitts, sweaters, etc.

And we’re getting to that time of year again. Clark needs a christmas stocking.
