2nd time’s the charm?

We’re getting our second ultrasound today. Yee-haw!

Sorry, my sis’ has been living in Texas for close to a year, and she’s started throwing around all sorts of Texas-talk. I love it, quite frankly. It’s fun. But a single email from her gets me drawlin’.

Ok, so, we’re gonna take another look and see if the baby will give up the goods. Even though we already have a good idea that it’s a boy. I’d just as soon know for sure.

As for baby knit-alongs… I was thinking about a Superman knit-along. Mainly because if it is a boy, I’m going to be knitting baby stuff with superman logos on it. I don’t imagine this knit-along will be very popular, but it could be fun. (And of course, my witty husband said it should be a KAL-el). We talked here awhile ago about a Baby in Koigu knit-along. I’m still open to that, because that’s the other thing I intend to knit for the little one. Koigu hats, mainly. Koigu’s expensive.

What do you think? (Those of you who expressed an interest).

Now, for the Interlocking Balloons Scarf.

It’s about as long as the railing on my front stairs. And it’s luscious, no? The weird thing is that when I touch it with my hands, there is nothing softer on the planet. And when I wrap it around my neck, it itches. What’s up with that? It doesn’t itch bad, I’ll still be happy to wear it, but I find it very strange indeed.
