This was my discovery for the day. Not the lonely like "being by oneself" kinda lonely. But lonely like no really knows what you think about every single minute of the day. The all consuming thought of the child you are growing. I wonder if my beloved feels lonely. Probably not. 'Cos he's got me. Men are wired differently. Not that I don't have him, I do, but he gets to go to work and have an external life besides me and JB. So to him, we're his extensions. As for me, I live inside my own head alot lately.
Yeah, I worry too.
Anyway, here is a picture of the Pebble Vest with wooden buttons. Told ya, this mama is one big sucker. Also lazy lah. JB's worn it once because it's stil only April, but no one would know it is autumn with the way the weather was going, all hot and sunny. That's Melbourne for you. The vest is too small now, so I am giving it to my beloved's cousin's baby.
Lesson to learn here? Do gauges. Else nothing will ever fit. Knitting gauges are what I call "lost knitting time". I can't possibly count that in as part of the project, 'cos then my slow knitting will become even s l o w e r. Boy, am I slow. You know the story you read as a kid about being slow and steady winning the race? Skip that story. It's all about teaching kids all sort of life traits. Slow and steady never really got me anywhere, except coming last in all my running heats.
And here is my latest project. Something I have gauged and started knitting. Using the same alpaca wool sis gave me. Let's hope JB gets more than one wear from it. Better get crackin' eh?
Have a great weekend xx
