Small = Fast
This knitting baby stuff is a kick. Even using DK weight yarn I've got the body of the Little Zander Cardi done in just a week and after I snapped this photo I got to chugging down one arm. Hey, when sleeves are only 4" long (10cm-ish) and 39 stitches around it takes no time at all. I need to start thinking of buttons.
Then there's the Flakey Baby Socks. Sock #1 is begun... maybe that's what I'll work on today. I want to see the whole flake emerge. And I am knitting it inside out which seems to be working quite well. What isn't working as well is holding yarn in each hand to speed things up. I can only do this if I drop one and pick up the other. *sigh* Someday I'll be a grownup knitter, all cool and two-handed like the big kids.
