Good Day Sunshine

We interrupt this bad mood with a ray of sunshine.

I got my Ravelry invite yesterday and am adding projects as fast as I can. I always thought the invite part of Ravelry sounded quite snobbish, but, it's just a way to slow things down while they get the Beta version worked out.

A few things I noticed about my projects:

1) I don't invest brain cell on remembering what yarn I used. I think Ravelry will help me with this.

2) I crochet a *lot* more than I knit. I'd like to knit more, so that I can make up my own designs.

3) I like colorful projects. Who would have thunk?

4) I like to make up my own designs. I didn't realize how many times I've done this.

5) I don't write those designs down. Sad.

So, if you are already at Ravelry, make me a friend and I'll make you a friend. And, if you are not there, go sign up for an invite. They're real nice.

You too! I will eventually join because I don't think I will ever stop clicking on people's ravelry links, only to be confronted by the "front page." Such a tease!

Is it a cape, or a bib? It's waaaaay too adorable to get food on it! I can't tell you how much I love those happy colors. I think winter's getting to us all.

Your son is quite possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. I want to eat him up! :)

I found you via the Sew Mama Sew blog, and I love your projects. From you I found your sister's 'worn' series...my god, she is my new style icon. You are two cool chicks.

You will find my melted brain pooled with futuregirl's on the floor. Mmmm. Pooled brains.

Voodoo economics. I just read your ravelry profile. lol

You must get stopped in public all the time so people can discuss that bundle of cuteness.

It's a bib, but a knit supercape is a great idea, Mimi.

Maybe the cute factor = melted brain is what's wrong with me. ;)

Thanks,

I added you as a friend! What I love about ravelry besides the whole organization thing is that you can see what others have done with patterns you want to make:: really a priceless feature! And your son is tooooooooo cute my dear!

I love the bib! I needed some inspiration to use up some of my Peaches N Cream yarn, bought in a frenzy immediately after I bought MasonDixon's book. Now I'm so tired of seeing it in the basket. I want to knit it on size 10 needles or something to make it go away fast! Found your blog through swallowfield. Will definitely be back!

Oh I love your bib...or cape (or whatever your heart desires for the moment...I am sure superman could have used a bib sometimes!)

We are adopting a baby from Ethiopia, I'd love to make some of these...do you have a pattern you could share?

That baby is so adorable! I knit a cotton sweater for my guy who just turned a year old. it isn't seamed yet, because it doesn't fit yet. i started the sweater before he began eating solid foods, and the yoke is a double-seed-stitch texture. all i can think now is Food Catching Super Built in Goop Magnet. I bet this ridged bib does its job!
