\"\"<\/a>This is one of those projects that has been taking much longer than I expected. \u00a0I think it is all the stockinette stitches, which tend to bore me. \u00a0Or maybe I shouldn’t be blaming the poor stockinette and just confess that I have the attention span of a door knob these days. \u00a0It is going to be something for Laloo like she is calling herself these days. \u00a0She might be 2 and a half but boy does she have enough attitude to fill up 2 s ix year olds. \u00a0This is my first knitted garment and I am working on it only when she’s asleep or at preschool because she usually loves to try on the stuff I make for her while I am still working on them. \u00a0I am loving how it is turning out but I am kind of worried it will be on the short size so I am thinking of working a few extra rows at the end. \u00a0I love the color. \u00a0It is a deep rich red which I usually wouldn’t have gone for but I took my husband with me to pick out the colors. \u00a0It is soft and lovely to work with too, I used this yarn before but to crochet with and loved it. \u00a0It is a little harder to knit with because I keep feeling that it will just slide off my needles and since I suck at picking up dropped stitches I am terrified of that fact. \u00a0I should have some left after I am done so I am hoping to make leg warmers or a hat. \u00a0 Here’s to hoping that it will turn out as cute as I am already imagining it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
