It wasn’t but a few months ago that I could barely cobble together a baby cap without making a bazillion mistakes. And now? I can craft beautiful works of art in record (for me) time. Yesterday, I finished a pair of small knit shorties in roughly 24 hours. True, I barely did anything else besides change diapers and eat, but the fact is, I DID IT. Tuesday night, I had started the waistband on this project shortly before going to bed and got about an inch of that done. The rest was done yesterday. I finished around 11:30 last night. Okay, maybe it was closer to 12. The point is I FINISHED IT. And they are too adorable to believe. I feared that since they were going to be a plain color, that maybe they wouldn’t be that exciting. But they may just be my favorite completed project yet. There’s something about the heathered yarn, the lush green colors, the cute smallness (without being UBER TWEE like the newborn longies were)… See for yourself!
Aaaand for those of you who are sick of all the knitting talk, I WILL get that craft blog going and I WILL keep posts like this to there (unless I have something notable to discuss in the realm of crafting). But I just had to share my accomplishment. Not only are they ADORABLE, but I finished them damn quick. Go me!

Good job! They’re beautiful!! I can’t knit to save my soul LOL. But are you making any money doing this? You don’t charge much for them, and if you can do one in a day, that’s not much income, is it?
I bow to the knitting goddess.
Holy crap – you ARE a knitting goddess. I am truly impressed with how prolific you have been! I am not so good with getting things done – ask Brit. Heh. I tend to knit when I am stressed and I need to relax. Oops.
Okay, since we are friends, I can ask this without it coming across the wrong way. I don’t understand longies and baby legs. Explain it to me. I just put Anjali in regular leggings and off we go. Is it a cloth diaper thingie? Since I am a Landfilling Water Conservationist, maybe I don’t understand?
Dang shebang! You’re amazing! I’ve been knitting for 10 years and I can’t do that! (that speaks to YOUR knitting prowess and MY ineptitude)
Oh yeah, and I love the word twee thanks to Paul McCartney
