Look who arrived today from Hop Skip Jump all the way in Australia: Winifred and Werner!!! Isabelle seems to like them!

Well here are the earflaps and ties for the Miss Dashwood hat. Ummm…but where’s the hat? I can’t find it. Does anyone know what I did with it? Guess that’s what happens when you don’t touch a project for months.

However, I did find my lace pattern scarf that I haven’t touched in TWO years. If I can find the chart I’ll work on that.

Isabelle’s hair is getting so long. We’ve been putting it up in barrettes…well most of the time. Maybe we should cut it?

The other night I went to give Isabelle a shower and I tried to take off her onesie. But I couldn’t get it off her head. I guess I must have been tired because I thought has her head gotten bigger? which you know is an absolutely ridiculous thought. I guess it would have helped if I had unbuttoned the buttons by the neckhole. If I had, her head would have fit just fine.

Go read silly parent #9, water on the baby.

I couldn’t find the chart I was using originally for my lace pattern scarf. It was a photocopy with the corrections on it and post it notes to mark my place. Luckily, back then, I used to use a row counter (which is still on the needles) so I knew which row I was on.

I want to finish this before I start a new knitting project. That will take about 20 inches. It’s really strange knitting it again. I started this back when I first started to knit. This was the first chart I had ever used. There are mistakes and my knitting tension wasn’t as even. It almost makes me want to pull it all out but there are roughly 82 inches done so that’s not going to happen!
