Oh, wait, we didn’t get the picture of you with it on…Go stand over there in the corner by the cookie jar…No, take your jacket off; there isn’t enough contrast, so I can’t see it.

How did it come out?

You have a goofy look on your face, but it’s OK.

I didn’t notice the greens growing out of his head till later.  I figure it’s my way of getting him back for the one of me in Catania with the fountain spouting out of my head. 

BTW, he called a while ago.  He got there safely, and when they were landing the pilot said it was 10 BELOW there (must be w/the wind chill).  I told him last night that I wanted photo proof of his actually wearing the scarf in Canada.  I don’t that that will be a problem.

 Yes, I’ve been hiding a WIP from you.  Oh, well.  This is for Baby Ian, who is now nine days old.  It’s made from leftovers of Filatura di Crosa Zara and Karabella Aurora 8.  I wish I’d been able to use all dark blue instead of the light blue, but I had to work with what I had on-hand.  I’m likin’ me this top-down stuff. 

My next baby thing will be for Baby Keiko, who is due to arrive via scheduled c-section tomorrow.

I also have to finish Nana’s wreath.

And then there’s Breeze for Thing One and Girlfriend’s School Spirit Sweater for Thing Two.  For Christmas.  Bwaaahahahaha!

…and just barely, at that!  I finished steaming this at 4:00.  Hubby’s plane leaves at 10:20 tonight.  We’re dropping him off at about 8:00 (it’s a school night, ya know).

Whew!

Maybe now I can take a shower.
