And one last minute BSJ for a surprise baby boy!



I was convinced my entire pregnancy I was having a girl. I would have bet my yarn on it! I even had my mother knitting a pink baby blanket. Then surprise: It's a boy!!! So I did a very rushed last minute BSJ in blue. Of course by the time I got it finished it didn't really fit anymore. sigh (a knitters lament)

BSJ Mania




Here are three more BSJs I recently finished. I have to stop myself--all my other knitting is suffering. However, I do have one more that is almost finished that I will post soon. I knit it for my brand new baby boy!

Waiting til the snow


I did finish a couple of months ago, but have just now re-took the picture. I just need to sew it & put on buttons. I would just love to make this out of wool!! I will probably wait til it really gets cold to actually finish. Thank you for this knit along, it helped me and encouraged me that I could make another one!!

Really, truly, finished!


Sometimes Wal Mart comes thru! Found awesome bags of buttons in all kinds of colors for very cheap. So my first BSJ is done. I have to say I am a little proud of myself as this was the first time I ever sewed buttons and it came out perfectly.

I'm Done!






I have to say, the adult version I made for my 18yo (it fits ME!) was LOT more knitting than the smaller version! It took me FOR ever, but I love how it turned out.

How is everyone doing? I'm going to start #3!



My soon-to-be 18yo wants one too He wanted the colors in my "Merlin" yarn, so I dyed up a bunch of coordinating Full Belly Farm organic...and started.

It will be wee!


Well I haven't finished seaming but it is basically done.  This was so much fun and amazingly satisfying.  I am already planning another one!  It came out fairly small--I used size 4 needles.  I think this would be perfect for 9 to 12 months.
