Knitting

Yes, I am 27 and I love knitting.  I'm secretly a fat old Italian lady... (the fat because I love to eat... Italian because I LOVE Feeding people and well, the old lady is the knitting)  And this is the reason why I have been neglecting my blog for the past week or so... my friend Amy and I are knitting this sweater together and I have become completely OBSESSED.  This is the first time attempting anything that wasn't straight knitting and I think that I'm doing fairly good at it!  I have spent a lot of time watching YouTube Videos and bugging Amy about how to do a lot of stuff but I think it's coming along quite nicely.  Hers is looking awesome and I can't wait to see the end result!  There was a little bit of an issue with the pattern but with some brainstorming on our part we figured it out :)  And if this sweater works out for me my poor kids are going to have a lot of funny sweaters ;)  You know which ones I'm talking about!  haha

Probably why I'm sleep deprived... just one more row...

What the sweater should look like when I'm done... except mine is pink

The very beginning...

I have just taken the sleeves off... the lacey part in the middle is the back and the two lacey parts in the front will make up the front :)

Gaetan had also started a project and finished.  He started knitting at the end of my pregnancy and finished his scarf!  :)  Very proud of his first project and it looks very nice.  Good work Babe!
