oh baby baby

I've been finishing up big projects, which is such a relief.  However, I don't think my stash of crafting goodies is getting much smaller.  I thought I'd go ahead and put up two of the projects now instead of waiting until the end of the month. 

Sunday night I finished a baby boy blanket.  It's not for anyone in particular.  It was to use up as much boy yarn as possible.  I still have enough left to make this exact blanket.  This is yarn (and same pattern) from this blanket I made last year.  I'll put the specs up on ravelry for all the curious knitters.  You can't tell here, but I haven't woven the ends in yet (as with another completed blanket) because I like to feel like I made something especially for someone.  When it's time to give these blankets away, I can weave in the loose ends to feel like I worked on the blanket for its recipient.

I also had another order for onesies.  Another girl.  Making little girl things is so much fun!  The bird is my favorite.  The cupcake is cute, too.  I learned a lesson from the cupcake that I'll apply to the next one I make.

yippee! we get a close-up too!
I hope both of the babies who receive these gifts know how much they are loved as they grow up.
