Let's see...on the knitting front I have two projects going simultaneously. I have been working on a sock pattern called Hedera, by Cookie A of Knitty.com. It is such a great pattern. I don't have the proper yarn to shoe off the pattern though. It is a lovely lace, but my yarn is variegated, so the pattern isn't really visible. Alas, my feet are too big to fit in the socks. ~Sigh~ I suppose I'll have to develop my own pattern one day, so my huge feet will fit into handmade socks. I have also begun a baby sweater for a friend. She just found out she is having a girl! So I thought I'd make the same sweater I made for Hannah and Abby. I'm using a white and yellow variegated cotton. It should be soft and comfortable for the baby. I hope she likes it.
Speaking of babies. I've been loving on Cohen, the baby of our friends who own the coffee shop. The same coffee shop so near and dear to our hearts, because we met there. He is just the cutest little guy. He's always smiling and happy. Today I played with him while his daddy was eating and mommy was napping. We went outside in the sunshine and attempted walking. Then we went and sat on the swing. He LOVES to swing. I'll bet he would have been content to sit there all evening. I had to stop because I was getting some serious motion sickness! LOL He's my little buddy.

Oh, how I would love to learn how to knit. I would love to learn how to crochet too. I know how to tole paint, which some people would love how to do also, so I guess each one of us has talents that others would like to learn. But knitting and crocheting is something that's been on my heart to learn for a long time. I guess I could get busy and get a video, DVD, or book on it, now couldn't I?!! :-)
Have fun on your knitting projects~
God bless your hands as you knit~ Andrea
