This is another WIP I have going. I am only working on this one and my CPH.  This one will actually be done first, I think. Because I am giving it to my sister when I go to Michigan (hopefully it will be done by then!).

Front:


Still need to do the eyes and ears on the front, but...

Back:


I really wish I could have finished this when our youngest was littler. (I started it for him.)  But, now that we're here... I don't think he would need a sweater in this desert heat.

Thank you, Kathy.  I think it will be done soon, I am really enjoying knitting this (now, after three years, that I have figured out what I was doing wrong...) :P

I don't know what it is, but I just can not seem to get the hang of knitting.
I can do just the basic, but it's the patterns that goof me up.
They are all written so differently from one another...makes it a lot harder to learn to knit something.

I have all the pieces knitted up for this, just needs to block them (have never blocked a sweater this big so I'm not quite sure how to go about it...)   and sew them together. (Then make the hat.)  I think it will be done in time though since he is still only four months old.     (It's a size 4T.)

You just soak the pieces then take roll up in a towel get some water out. Then pin it to the size you want, just make sure that all seams match up.
Let dry. It's blocked...
Can't wait to see it done....

Where do you put your items you are blocking?    I have only done baby items, on an ironing board with a towel underneath.  I don't have any fancy blocking boards (is there such a thing), or anything...  Thanks.

I use a large bath towel and a bed.. Or an old bedspread and a bed..
I use to just pin it on the carpet but I have a hard time getting up after being on my knees for so long.. Need work done on my right knee for a while now but keep putting it off..
