the blue blog archives: one last kiss

I finished the last of the x's and o's on the hugs and kisses baby sweater! I'm happy to have the finish line in sight finally, especially as this is officially the first of my holiday knit gifts and it'll be nice to cross that first one off the list. But I'm kind of missing it already. It's been such a sweet little knitting companion in my extra time at the playground or in the doctor's waiting room. But soon it'll be companion to another little sweetie.

The tech guy socks are also linked to at boingboing.net, where my fiance has seen them and now requested a pair. :) I think he'll need both versions though, since they're such cool looking socks.

A perfect confection to wrap an angel in love.

Just what I needed to see to make me feel better about this first week of morning sickness. I can get through it. I. CAN. DO. IT.

The color looks great. Baby knits look like a lot of fun to do. It looks that you have been getting a share of them! Really pretty sweater!

Lovely, sweet sweater. Ms. Baby is going to have many wonderful handknits. I think I may need to make this for my daughter in the same colour.

I am so happy for you and so in awe that you are still knitting up a storm, raising two boys, whilst pregnant. And, you take care of hubby too.
