Heartbreakingly cute

The Mason-Dixon phase continues! This is the Heartbreakingly Cute Baby Kimono, knit in Sugar and Cream, colorway Something Ombre. I twisted every single purl stitch without realizing it, but I rather like the effect it had on the fabric. This was a new-baby gift for my aunt and uncle's fourth child -- they and their first three children gave me a place to stay last summer when I was working in California.

The Warshrag Phase

Last October, Mason-Dixon Knitting took over my brain (as it does with most knitters sooner or later). Of course, I had to start with a warshcloth. In fact, the warshcloth urge was so strong that I negotiated my beloved sidekick into stopping at a craft store with me on our way to visit friends 3 hours away. It took me quite some time to realize how deeply this book had embedded itself in my brain: I honestly thought that I had discovered a creative and interesting color combination. Which was true, except for the "discovered" part, since Ann and Kay put the exact same warshrag in their book. Only they got a better picture of it.
