posted by Jackie on october 30, 2005They look great! I posted a picture of my Rainbow Brite costume on my blog, if you want to take a look, I just realized I'd been posting here under my old blog address, so now the right one is linked.
posted by Jessica on october 30, 2005Man they look cool! Looking forward to seeing finished pair together.
posted by purlpower on october 30, 2005Go, Alison! Those are going to look adorable. I laughed last night when I got to the door of a friend's Halloween party: she and her husband were dressed as Thing 1 and Thing 2! Thought of your boys and smiled :-)
posted by Kathy on october 30, 2005I've said it before and I'll say it again, these are the best Halloween costumes I've seen in a long, long time! Great job and have fun trick-or-treating on Monday. Will you be dressed as the Cat in the Hat?
posted by nona on october 30, 2005I am in awe. They look fantastic! And they will be adorable post-Halloween too.
posted by Lauren on october 30, 2005Awesome Alison! Gives a whole new meaning to home made costumes. Although, I think you maybe in trouble for next year!
Happy Halloween!

posted by Erin on october 30, 2005Awesome!Those will be the coolest costumes ever! It has been great watching them progress along. Can't wait to see the final picture! You deserve a good break after that! Whew!
posted by Zonda on october 30, 2005Yay! I knew you could do it! I wish I put some effort into my costume, every year its last min. Your boys will love those shirts untill they grow out of them, and even then they will want you to make more ;)
posted by Karen on october 30, 2005You're officially the best mom ever! Can't wait to see them in their awesome costumes :)
posted by Vicki on october 30, 2005Amazing!!! I can't believe you actually knit TWO COMPLETE Halloween costumes. I'm stunned, completly.
I'll be going to my room now, feeling bad about myself ;-)
Best wishes
Petra
Great job! They look fantasic--I can't believe how fast you knit them.
posted by Janice on october 30, 2005Hi Alison! Love the costumes... they are SO great, and look like a lot of fun for your boys to wear as well. :) Just wanted to thank you for forwarding my name to Bliss as my Sockapal2za Sock Savior... she sent me a lovely pair and yarn to make another. Both of them are beautiful! I appreciate all of your hours of coordinating, to make this such a fun exchange.
posted by AmyB on october 30, 2005Cutest THINGS ever! I can't wait to see pictures of them Trick o Treatin!
posted by Dani on october 30, 2005Lucky lucky boys and you are one great Mom!! They look wonderful!
posted by Gracie on october 30, 2005Your knitting pace is just mind boggling. These are terribly cute. I can't stop ogling them! What an awesome idea and even more impressive execution.
posted by Amanda on october 31, 2005Good luck, you're almost there!
posted by Monica on october 31, 2005Oh, you are such a wondermom for these costumes! If I had kids, they'd probably end up in plastic drugstore costumes or sheets with holes in them.
There are pictures of the completed Hogsmeade Snowball Fight hat on my blog today, but the pattern will have to take a while to get written up!
They are so adorable! I can't wait to see the photos:)
posted by Deb on october 31, 2005Lord, your boys will be the cutest. ever. in those outfits. You are the coolest mom I have ever known! ;-)
Happy Halloween to you and S. and B.!
posted by Jenny on october 31, 2005Just lovely!!! and what a great balancing job between thing 1 and 2...btw, which thing is the "older" thing?
posted by Orli on october 31, 2005This is ingenious! I can't wait to see the completed costumes.
posted by Becky on october 31, 2005Wow... S & B are great little models! :) Hope they get lots of treats tonight! I have to say, the sweaters look fantastic! (oh, and btw... I say if they want to wear the fun fur hats... let boys be boys!)
Happy Halloween!
:) Kate
Wow they look awesome! Now can you imagine a big fluff of blue roving for their hair? lol
Sorry that image just popped in my head.
:)
Happy Halloween!
I love the graphic on the shirts, Alison. Way cool. Wait until Pete sees these ... he's a huge Suess fan. :)
posted by Kerstin on october 31, 2005Wowowow! Ignorant me. I don't know the 'things' and we don't have Halloween over here, but I CAN adore those costumes! F-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c! I hope the little 'things' appreciate their supermom. Have a lot of fun and relax your wrists after all this speed knitting!
