The right front of the Must Have is progressing nicely. I got a good chunk of knitting time ('good chunk' of course being relative; when you have two little boys, 'good chunk' is far less than it may be for others) last night while the boys were playing. Actually, the boys were walking, hand-in-hand around the house together. Spencer has been 'cruising' (a.k.a. walking the furniture) for months now, and just recently started walking short distances on his own. Concurrent to that autonomy, he's started walking a lot more holding my hand, and last night, the boys rounded the dining room through the kitchen and back into the living room hand in hand for the first time, both of them beaming as they came into my line of sight. I was beaming, too. It was just the sweetest moment, and my heart swelled watching them. I knew they were coming because Matthew had called out, "Mama, we're doing something special" before they got to the doorway.
The glow of motherhood still strong, I got a few more rows in on the cardigan before Matthew decided he really needed to go draw a picture of him and Spencer walking together. So cute.
The photo above/right is a close-up of the yarn I'm using for the Must Have. This actually seems to capture the colorway pretty accurately.
Curious minds want to know...
- How did Chibi's become so popular that the discontinued pink ones started selling at black market prices before I'd ever even heard of them?
- Who came up with the idea for glow-in-the-dark pins?
Speaking of balls...
awww, what a sweet moment! that's one to definitely remember and retell in later years. just reading it, i was beaming right along here with you!
yeah, what's with those pink chibis! they have a huge cult following!
