Pear, done

Finished :) It's huge, but pretty!




Now... to work on some other things!

Pear

I'm whipping out a "Per Orla" dishcloth as a wedding gift for a friend... we are going to the ceremony on Sunday so I have a few days left, but I'm almost done! As with the original ballband dishcloth, this is HUGE. I'm thinking I will call it a trivet... or maybe a wall hanging. :-)

Lull

Sorry for the lack of exciting knitting content, but lately I've been in a bit of a knitting lull! I'm not sure if it is from the new lovely weather that makes me want to go outside, or from the extremely cute and ever-growing baby that I care for. :-) She isn't mobile yet, but I'm guessing in the next month or so I will be in trouble!!!

I have done some minor home decorating. I put some fabric in embroidery hoops (How easy is that? I never knew!). Some for our master bedroom, some for a hallway...



I have cast on and knitted the sole for a pair of slippers for my MIL! No rush on those as she won't need them till it's cold out again :) I'm doing the Mary Jane slippers that I had made a couple years ago for my mom.

One of my friends is having a wedding-ish party this weekend, and I'm just thinking about whipping something up for that... so we will see???

Dear knitting motivation, COME BACK!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
