Two sleeves down..

posted Saturday, September 29th, 2007 by Sarah

..and I think my finger is paying the price. It doesn’t help that about a week ago I got superglue on my fingertip (I was fixing my sunglasses). Then my skin cracked at the edge of the glue – right where I tend to push on the tip of the knitting needle to scoot stitches along towards the tip. It doesn’t help that the options tips are REALLY pointy. Well, it helps while knitting, and I really like them, normally, but now I’ve got a major ouchy spot right where I *really* don’t need one. So I think I’m going to take a break from the tangled yoke for a few days so it can heal some, unless I am magically able to find a thimble that works for me.

But it’s hard to believe it’s over halfway finished now! I know I still have quite a bit of knitting left to do, but I’d estimate that I’m actually 60-70% finished… that’s pretty good, I think, considering it’s my first sweater for me, I bought the yarn just two weeks ago, and I’ve got the “fun” part still to do (which motivates me to keep knitting)!

And, with relatively short notice.. we picked up our bunny this afternoon!

Aww :) Bunny

DH is quite amused by him… I don’t think he quite got why I wanted this bunny and he’s still a bit confused as to why he looks so ‘goofy’. He is so much smaller than he looks, too.. under all the fluff he’s still a tiny little baby bunny! He’s two months old today, which makes him exactly 3 weeks younger than Odin :)

  2. I found you through Ravelry – just wanted to give a shout out to a neighbor Georgetownian. Cute babies and nice knitting.

  3. Hey, thanks for the comment! I used the shine sport on the knitted pocket diaper, and I did a smidge of measuring and mostly made it up on the fly. I did sketch it first. If you look in my projects on Ravelry I have a diaper cover that is really frilly that I lined. It was a lot less annoying to create a lining that way than the way I did it on the pocket diaper.

  6. What a cute little guy! I hope he is as cuddly as he looks! There is a house rabbit association that provides a lot of help for people with pet bunnies. I don’t know the exact URL but you can probably find it on Google.
