This is not a normal Fast-Topic-Changing Friday. This is a Plow-Through-All-the-Knitted-Stuff Friday, which I just made up.
I haven’t been posting very regularly, but I’ve been knitting like a fiend. I’m going to keep the descriptions brief, because I have a lot of catching up to do…
 |
Central Park Hoodie! Love!
I’m wearing it almost every day (when it isn’t 80 degrees, like TODAY).
Next…!

New pattern available – Felicia Baby Sundress. Pattern includes instructions for both the knit and fabric skirts.
Next…!
|
 |
Tomato Baby Beanie! Free pattern, in my normal baby hat pose.
Next…!
|
 |
Another new pattern – Baby Hand Socks. Check back here (or on Ravelry) after February 1 for the free pattern.
Next…!
|
 |
Bella’s Mittens! Just like the movie Twilight, and a free pattern.
Next…!

The Hudson Hat!
Okay. Pant, pant. Enough knits for now. I’m caught up. Now for dog time.
|
 |
Dogs in the morning sun.
Have a great weekend!

Edith Bunker! Come on down! You are the first four contestants on The Fast-Topic-Changing Friday!
Can I still say Happy New Year? Happy New Year! Miss Manners can drop me a note if she likes. Let’s get started…
 |
First up – new foster dog. He’s a handsome one-year old named Leroy, wise and calm beyond his age.
If Ike could have been this good as a puppy, I’d have fewer wrinkles now.
He’s a FOSTER. Really.
Next…!

2008 Christmas knits. I kind of blew it with the photos this year.
I was so desperate to get everything blocked and sent to Alaska that I didn’t have time for nice photos. As soon as this stuff was dry, I had to send it out. Luckily, the package arrived in Kodiak on Christmas Eve!

Birfday!
All Basenjis are born in the weeks surrounding Christmas – it’s a weird thing. So they’re all having their birthdays about this time.
Abe just turned 5! I’m happy to say that he’s acting more like a puppy now than he did two years ago.
Next…!

Saartje’s booties. (pdf link to free pattern)
I knit these up for a class sample. Man, they’re cute.
Next…!

Now that I’ve finished my year-long self-portrait photo project, I’ve started a new photo project. This one is 365 Year in Photos, or YIP. I’ll take a photo every day, but I don’t have to limit it to selfies. Should broaden my horizons a bit.

I knit another thing…this is Just Enough Ruffles, knit with double-strands of Babyboo.
I highly recommend this pattern.

(Another blocking board shot…sorry.)
My Central Park Hoodie is mere MOMENTS from being finished. I’m trying to psych myself up to be excited about the seaming.
Yay! I get to seam! I love seaming! Oy.
Next…!

Ike is one of the few dogs I’ve met who seem to “get it” when it comes to photos. I’ll say Ike’s name and he’ll look at me, then I get a nice photo of his face. Every other dog gets up from their cute pose to come towards me, because they think I’m calling them. Leroy is no exception.
Have a great weekend!
