This has been a busy week for my family. Nothing exceptional, just a busy time of year. I was not able to get as much done on my baby blanket that I shared last week. I finished attaching the border strip from last week. I knitted one more and added it to the left side. Slowly but surely I will complete this blanket.
I usually do not post my projects until they are complete, but I thought I would change things up for this project.
Back in early 2013, I completed a letter B dishcloth. The pattern came from a dishcloth set of the entire alphabet. At that time, I thought that they could make a delightful baby blanket. However, no one in my family is expecting to have any more children.
Recently, a friend announced that she was expecting. In addition to being delighted for her, I wanted to start on a baby blanket for her.
I began by designing my project in Excel.
I think I am in love! Don’t tell my husband but I love this little hedgehog. He is currently sitting on my mantle.
As a mother, I constantly feel like I am juggling many plates. There are so many things that need my attention and everyone feels their item is more important than anyone else’s. This is a problem most of my friends experience at some point in their life. However, I have no solution to offer you. If you are in a season of life where the juggling seems hard, know that you are not alone and one day this season will end.
Juggling the plates of motherhood is not where I was headed with this post, and I’m not sure exactly where it came from. Rather… I wanted to share with you a set of juggling balls I knitted for my son. He has managed to teach himself how to juggle by reading a book that came with an inexpensive set of balls he received a few Christmas’s ago. He has gone through two sets of balls, but they do not seem to last. I decided I would knit him a set that will hopefully last longer. With tomorrow being World Juggling Day, it seemed the perfect time to share these.
I am working on a set of music themed dishcloths. The final designed dishcloth is a Bass Clef.
