Hoping for a cold snap

13 October 2009

OK, it's a long story, so get a drink and make yourself comfortable.

Before we were born, Mum didn't have much time to knit. Well, she did, but she knitted for other people. Then when she was preggers with us, she was too tired. Then we were born, and she was too tired. Then we started sleeping through the night and so she took some time to catch up on sleep (and on adult conversation).

So in March this year, Tapestry Craft had their big sale (it's on again now see http://www.morrisandsons.com.au/catalog/index.php?cPath=1_1460) and Mum got excited and Gran got excited and Mum blew the credit card on wool to knit for us. And an incredibly XXX-y but VVV-NICy Debbie Bliss pattern book. Sigh. And so now, 6 months later, she and Gran have finished knitting and what would you know the dresses are beautiful and they fit like a dream, only now.... it's almost summer!

We are hoping for a cold snap.

In the meantime, Mum has bought up big (again) and has started new projects for Baby Puelma and Baby Spencer!
