Spring is HERE!!

I cannot express how much I hate winter, and how much I LOVE SPRING!!! So I was pretty excited when my sister needed a shower gift and said I could do whatever I want to do. My tulips started pushing through the soil last week, so this is what I did. I love it! It's in Berroco Ultra Alpaca except for the yellow which is Di'Ve Zenith merino wool.

Owie's Monkey Pants!

My sister Michelle has been bugging me about these for MONTHS.  Since I only reserve Sundays for knitting for family and friends, it took much longer than my projects normally do after they get on the needles. I'm so very pleased with how they came out, and I'm so happy they went to my sweet nephew so I can visit them all the time!! :)  Thanks for the inspiration Shelly!! You inspired me to make some of the cutest longies on the planet! And yes, they're made with my very favorite Berroco Ultra Alpaca, the DK version.

And because he's mine and he's SO DARN CUTE, here's Lucas modeling Owie's pants. He LOVED them and didn't want to take them off!
