latest handcrafting project..



Second one in construction



I completed my last big project a couple weeks ago... knitting the comfort "blankey" in triplicate! for Mindy's new baby.  Number one and two were completed before Baby's arrival on April 24.  This is Mindy's third and with each she has made sure to have knitted blankeys in multiples so if one is soiled, left at Grandma's or whatever, there is an identical (or nearly) backup.  She also has a comfort plush animal for each child that is in multiples!  What a crack- up.... but oh, so smart! 



Love this simple pattern

She was able to find knitted blankets for her first, but was having a challenge when the second baby arrived.  I happened to have just finished making one and offered it to her.  I'd actually started another one already, using the same yarn... so finished that up for the back up.  Now a couple years later, the blankets are ready in advance for the newest member of the family!  My sister, Kelly Sue has gone in on it with me, with the financial end while I've put in the "sweat equity".  I love it when a gift can be just what is needed.

Katie all wrapped up in her own blankey!
