Scarf for a Friend

I have been working on a scarf for a friend who turns 40 in early April.  I love the lace pattern. I hope that it holds its shape after I block it. Right now the points have curled in on themselves while I'm knitting, so I pinned them out so  you could get the idea of what it will look like finished. I think that I have about 10" left to go, to make it a nice long scarf!  I should finish it by the end of the week, so I have plenty of time to block it properly.

I have also been working on the February Lady Sweater. I have about 5" left on the body and then I can start on the arms!! I cannot wait to wear this sweater. It is going to be hard to sit there and look at it while its drying during blocking. I will just want to wear it straight off the needles.

Maybe I will learn a little more patience this month as I finish some awesome projects. Or maybe not. I am very impatient by nature.

Baby Shower

I can't wait for to go to the baby shower this weekend! I have been doing a little knitting to welcome the new boy into the world.

As I was working on the Fresh Picked hat I left the couch for five minutes to make some tea and the dogs proceeded to take over. So I figured I'd take some pictures of the dogs with my knitting! haha. Good thing they are cute dogs because they sure do take up a lot of room no matter where they lay down.
(Oh and excuse my yellow floral couch, it was free...)

I am almost done with the hat and thumb-less mitten set. They are turning out very well and I love the change of color in the yarn!

We cannot wait for the new addition to our small community! Bring on the baby boy!
