What great costumes!!!! And such cuties! Those are definitely the most original I've seen. :D

I have a question for you- you hosted the first Sockpalooza a year ago- are there any Sockpaloozas to sign up for now?

Hi! I'm pretty new to this whole knitting thing and your blog but I just needed to let you know that your costumes are FABULOUS!! I cannot get enough of them. And you're boys are adoreable! I also echo the person above about any new Sockapaloozas. :-) Happy Halloween!

Those are really AMAZING!!! They look adorable on your boys, I wouldn't want to take the costume off either!

...and the Mommy of the Year Award goes to... Alison!

If my mommy made me a Thing One/Two shirt, I would never take it off either.

Heh... when I was younger, I wore a clown costume for Halloween one year, and it became my pajamas for the next year until it was so worn through I couldn't wear it any more. So, yup... no reason to de-costume just because it's not Halloween anymore.

I don't know how you were able to accomplish knitting those sweaters in the time given! Great job.

1. Your chillins are cute!
2. What a fabulous idea for a costume.
3. You did such a wonderful job.
4. I want to copy you, but I have no chillins of my own.

Wow.

Those are about the cutest Things I've ever seen. Loved the pic of them at somebody's door, too. Oh what a treat!

The costumes are so wonderful Alison! You did a fabulous job! Scott wants you to make him one.. he wants, "Big Thing"! How funny. Glad you had a great Halloween :)

The costumes are fantastic, and even better on such gorgeous boys. I assume you got big hugs and kisses in thanks?

I suspect you'll have a couple of Things on your hands for a while -- Enjoy!

Love the sweaters - they're almost as cute as the boys wearing them :-)

That's the true sign of a Hit Costume ... one that gets worn day after day after day after day ... what cutie pies your boys are.

I have to admit, I thought you were a bit nuts there for a few minutes (I'm guessing you thought so too on those late nights-I know from personal experience), but seeing how it all turned out, so worth it. Of course, I can only accuse you of the craziness because it takes on to know one! The stuff I've done for my kids that was really more about me than them. Heh! I love it!
