Little Pretties

Yarn-y goodness...
This is the delivery I got last week from Knit Picks. It was my first order from them and I was thoroughly impressed. So cheap! So woolly...and cottony! I was a little disappointed, though, b/c the colors didn't look to me exactly how I thought they would be according to the catalog. But that's ok, I'm sure they will look quite fetching knitted up as socks.
By the way, this year is officiallly "The Year of the Sock." Didn't know that? You thought it was The year of the Dog? Well, not around here, friend.
I was thinking concentrating on socks would be a good way to keep knitting with two little ones running (and crawling) around. I thought little=easy to pick up and put down. So, we'll see.
So, after I declared it Year of the Sock, I decided to start my projects for the new baby --due to arrive in 5 short weeks. And now you think it's socks or bootees, right? Logically enough, I'm making a stripey romper and a pullover vest (that's what the red cotton is for.) So glad that I'm already veering from my goal.
