Almost Ready

I'm almost ready for March since I've cast off my new design to celebrate ShaliMarch.

The tween loved the hat so much she even volunteered to model it and (gasp!) appear on the blog....haha! Hopefully the pattern will be ready in the next two weeks...I just need to finish writing it up, taking pictures and getting the baby hat version done. It's a quick knit, so I'm hoping some of you will still be able to cast on in the month of March if you are participating in ShaliMarch (for more details, check out this ravelry thread). Don't forget, I'm offering a discount code from now until March 7, for 20% off any IGK pattern from my ravelry store ($6.00 or less) with the coupon code: shalimarch2014  That way if any of you want to start planning your knits for Shalimarch you'll be good to go!

We are finally getting some rain around here. I couldn't stay home and knit that day, isn't that what you want to do on rainy days?! Anyways, I made the best of it by knitting a bit at the cafe that morning.

The yarn is Weepaca, a new yarn from Big Bad Wool. The yarn debuted at TNNA in January and was at Stitches West this past weekend. It is so soft and squooshy, perfect for baby.


I had a fabulous time this past weekend with Lil' Guy, but I'm sure looking forward to a relaxing and quiet weekend catching up on knitting and sleep! But boy, he sure is fun!

Are you guys looking forward to anything fun this weekend? Finishing up any knits? Or like some of us bay area knitters who went to Stitches West, casting on something new? I know, I know...I still owe you pictures of my Stitches West goodies :) Coming soon!

Happy Friday!!

I have a couple blog posts to write and my laptop is being a bit wonky right now so I don't know how that's going to go. I should be good to go by Monday, after Husband replaces my hard drive or fixes it.

In the meantime, I've been knitting a bit more. I only have the two WIPs right now and if I keep going at the rate I'm going, I'll be down to one and I'll have to find something new!

Also, I'm impressed with Lil Snowboarder's hair. She's getting so big!

I'm looking forward to knitting on a cowl I cast on tonight - the Summer Wind cowl! Hope you have an awesome knitting weekend :)

Love the new hat!

DS3 has his last HS hockey game tonight. It's very bittersweet. I'm sad to see this part of his youth end, but excited for his future!

Knitting-wise, I'll be working on my Color Affection shawl, but I'm also itching to start a new sweater... :-)
