Happy Spring!

It's finally here, although, it has been around for a couple of weeks.  We are 26 degrees above normal here in Central IL.  We've got the windows open and the dirt is flyin in the windows.  Thats what I don't like about Spring. 

I'm in baby knitting mode and last night ordered from both Jimmy Beans Wool and Webs some yarn for a couple of projects that I have my eye on.  When I get the yarns, I'll blog about them.

For now, enjoy the Spring evening!

On My Way To Bed Last Night

I thought I would just surf Ravelry for a bit, to pull up this pattern for a little kimono that I had been thinking about.  Wouldn't this be cute in a couple of cottons for Baby H?

But, then I started seeing this Moses basket liner.  How cool would that be?!  I realized I have some of the same yarn this  liner is made out of.  So, this morning I hauled it out and have been working on some gauge swatches out of it.  But, tonight, I've decided to order a more pinky color for it. 

 Best of all, both of my want tos are from this book.  And there a couple of other cool baby quick knit items in it too.
I'm off to order the yarn for it now.  Won't be using stash on this one!  There are so many baby things swirlin around my head.
