FO Friday #5

First up, my Knit It Tonight Cowl from Caron's site. I had originally planned on doing the lighter turquoise with a purple Simply Soft that I had but with Simply Soft super cheap last week at Michael's, I spotted the darker shade and had to have it. I do still have about a half skein of the darker shade, half skein of purple and a small amount of the lighter turquoise left so those three will likely be used for another small, quick project of mine. These quick projects have really been keeping me motivated on the larger projects I have (although I'm anxious to finish my one blanket so I can start the queen sized one for the master bedroom)!

I also realized I never even got to take a picture of myself sporting the cowl! Hubby saw it and said "I'm trying it on, give it here" so I may have to make that second one quickly if I want to have one for myself! We also amused ourselves by showing the dual use of a cowl:
BABY SKIRT!!
She was just plain confused when we put it on her thus the blur in the bottom of the picture from those little feet kicking away. It was still amusing though!

I did do three small projects (all the same pattern) last week during the car ride but I haven't made it to the craft store this week as I had planned in order to pick up buttons to complete them so they'll have to wait until next week!

  7. @Shateen'' She'll be 4 months on Wednesday. I need to make more things for her, I'm just always afraid she'll grow out of it before I finish it!!
