Joining in the Yarn Along this week with Ginny.
I just finished a Plain Vest for Nalah last week and a pair of mittens for Solomon.
I have been using up a lot of yarn from my stash. My goal is to only use my stash yarn, but I have case of one skein syndrome..you know where you just buy one skein because it's pretty but you really don't have a plan for how or when your going to use it. I could make a lot of hats, I guess but I have been wanting to make larger projects lately.
I won 100$ gift card from a local yarn shop when I was pregnant with Nalah and I have hoarded it until this past weekend. I finally decided what to make...something for me! I have just started this sweater the last few days. I am using Cascade Yarn Eco + wool in a pretty rusty orange brown color. I am reading on Ravelry that it is a quick knit, but I disagree....with 3 kids I can only knit this in the wee hours of the night when I can actually concentrate. Hopefully I finish before summer ;)
Not reading anything exciting. I am desperately trying to end our seemingly endless money troubles and this book has been spoken of very highly so I am giving it a shot. Financial Recovery by Karen McCall.

The vest is SO cute!(and so is Nalah!). That vest is on my to-knit-someday list.
your knits are so sweet, but your baby, oh my! she is the cutest little thing ever!
i think aidez is said to be a quick knit because its made with bulkier yarn and large needles. have fun making it!
Love seeing your sweetie in her new vest!
I've been loving the Aidez pattern for a while now. My friend recently knit one in Eco+ and loves it! Happy knitting!
I love your plain vest! I just finished one last week for my toddler. You can scroll back to last week in my posts to see it. How lucky to have won a gift certificate and such a good decision to make yourself something with it!
That vest looks lovely as does your LO. Hope you find some knitting time.
