29 hours

Deadline knitting. Secret deadline projects have been my focus for the past two weeks, but my best friend's baby shower is today! Had to whip up something quick.

So....

I cast on Thursday night around 8pm.

I was making pretty good progress on my lunch break at work Friday.
And then this happened.

I know what you're thinking Puddles, who took over my house?

Cupcakes. Its what aunties are for, right?

bedtime stories
At least I didn't have to read the bedtime story.
Knitting resumed at about 10pm and the vest was done at 1:00am.
29 fun-filled hours.

Then we were back at it bright and early to the farmer's market. They were happy, but man, Auntie Irishgirlie is exhausted!

Now I need to take a shower and get pretty for the baby shower!

Wow. I'm impressed! That's some grand deadline knitting, in the face(s) of serious cuteness even.

I hate deadline knitting. Something always goes wrong. I'm happy it didn't with you!

"A" is for Auntie and Amazing! Good work. Love the cute pup wondering what in the world had happened.

Very impressive, C! I would've tapped out at that point and made a run to Target for a backup. ;)
