Stitch and Bitch has been a great source of making new friends after moving. I love the company, the laughs and seeing what everyone is working on each Wednesday night. What I also love is watching the pregnant bellies of a few of our knitters grow. Its so much fun when its not you!
Without sounding ancient, it was more unusual for people to find out what sex child you were carrying when I was having my girls. I remember picking a both boy and girl nursery accessories and layettes and then having my mother call to tell the stores which to deliver. Of course knitting anything for a baby that wasnt yellow, white or green was a gamble – so I didnt do much baby knitting – which of course meant I missed out on all the fun of knitting little tiny baby sleeves and backs of sweaters that are the size of a dishcloth. I felt like I was working in miniature land!
First up – Raquel’s baby boy due next month. Navy blue Baby Yeti in a nice washable boucle
Two more bellies to watch grow – two more patterns to pick…
