CrusterRuster and MommaBear Still Doing Very Well

I started out with my Baby "K". Did the #'s, worked out the pattern in all 5 sizes (Preemie; 3 mos; 6-9 mos; 12 mos; 18 mos). One would expect that to be it, done, finished, onward and upward to another project. Not!!!!

Next I got the idea that the #'s should work for lots of other designs, both cardigans and pullovers. So I dug right in. So far I have Baby "K"; basic cardigan and basic pullover. That was not enough. Next I started a cardigan with a very grown up look. It contains knit/purl diamonds and knit/purl stripes. Sample in progress below and above. It is in size 18 mos and worked in Sirdar Country Style DK.

The blue pullover is in size 3 mos. worked in Berroco Comfort DK.

The tiny green cardigan is size Preemie, also in Berroco Comfort DK. I plan to do several in all the sizes, some will be striped, some with a colour pattern, perhaps lace, definitely cables, even girly ruffles if the mood strikes me. Until we meet again, CrusterRuster is keeping my bed warm, patiently waiting for me to put those sticks away and WALK!!!!
Remember, MommaBearKnits on and on.
Retirement here I come, more time to knit;
I hope.

It Worked, Why Did I not go Green Sooner?

Spring is really trying.
I am wearing my sandals,
a sweater (handknit of course)
No Coat
&
my very colourful and kooky socks
Green is coming
White is going
MommaBear will soon emerge from the den
&
enjoy the space around her

I am (V)knee deep into Deb's Baby-V and am making progress
Oh yeah!
I still have to finish Baby "K"
Creativity will keep me young
&
of course I try to take a different route home every day
just to keep me on the edge.

MommaBearKnits on and on and on!
&
She still walks the dog, in the woods
Each
&
Every Day

Socks and Baby Sweater

I have finished a size 3 mos. baby sweater, already I have changes that I intend to incorporate into the final version. I have also finished my multi coloured socks. I like them, I guess that is all that matters. I of course am always accompanied by my beloved grandpet. My cold is gone, I am back to walking the bugle every day. The cough is settling down. Life is good in my world.

As always MommaBearKnits Too
