I am 3 months behind on StashDown12, and I can’t catch up. My spinning time is seriously limited by toddler interference, my own fatigue, and a busy family schedule.

I am, however, knitting TWO things at the same time. As a monogamous knitter, this is both exciting and terrifying.

A chunky cabled vest, both for me!

I have also had some stash enhancement lately… lots of BWM balls and cones!

Sometimes you just have to make it happen.

 

Hoot and Hootabelle are very happy. I wont post any more photos, because well, Hoot got a little amorous and well, yes.

A much-loved character by my now 2-year old.

A very quick crochet project! He is adored and loved!

Awful photo, thanks to the sky going dark at 3pm for a massive storm!

So glad these are done. I was a little over the glaring crazy neon by the end.

I have one more skein (very similar, if not the same) of this yarn up for grabs. If you want it. comment here and I will pick a winner :)

Sweet merciful crap.

Eyemeltingly bright.

But fun. Tadpoles pattern, again, quick and easy, and on one needle again.
