I do still knit, and not just in extreme ways
I'm back in the northern hemisphere, and back in Philadelphia, where it is quiet and uneventful, even in the wake of xmas. In the interest of my laziness and the motivation-suck that is living with my folks, here's what I've done since I've been gone. With notes! Because I care.
Before I start, though, I would like to note that I am not pregnant. To reiterate, me = not pregnant. Okay! Moving on.
A wee tomten jacket! Made of NZ wool in "Haven." It just needs a closure of some variety. I was thinking a zipper, but my mom suggested a button-and-loop.
Another bebeh shedir! Also NZ wool, but I don't remember the brand.
A very, very modified Cardigan for Merry, which is so modified I've been calling it "Cardigan for Pippin." It's drop-shoulder instead of raglan, and the cable doesn't meet up at the top so I just did a three-needle bind-off and it may just stay that way. Otherwise it's finished.
Bebeh surprise! Just needs to be blocked and sewed up. SO cute. Made from Lorna's Laces Purple Club. I finally found a pattern where the yarn didn't pool.
Snowflake star ornament for mom. I made two, blocked them, and sewed them together. I'll get a picture of it finished. One day. Hopefully before it gets packed away.
Dylan's Hat from Alterknits. The polka dots in the book/pattern are painted on, which is okay, but kind of weak, so I embroidered them on instead.
I also tried to knit socks but they thwarted me at every turn and are in my bag, thinking about what they've done. The jerks.

You've got some good FO's there. Baby knitting is reported to be quick and easy (relatively speaking), but since there are no small ones in my group of extended friends and family, I've managed to avoid it.
Those are some great projects. I love the color of the cardi for pippin.
And good for you showing those socks who is boss!
