27 weeks

(27 weeks last friday)

& a reversible diaper bag.




I knit this as an extra diaper bag for our boy.. so I'm pretty proud of it, little flaws and all!
I still want to add a few more details but I've learned a lot from this project. One thing being to listen to your husbands combining method rather than the professionals video =] Who would have thought?
Now I'm on a mission to finish my babes little blanket before we get busy with the nursery at the end of the month.

24 weeks & a sneak peak

24 week bump!

[He's beginning to wonder what's going on in there]

I'm working on a little knitting project, I'm really excited about this little gem of mine and can't wait see how it comes out. I should be posting an update with a picture of it sometime in the next week! I love knitting & have so many potential projects lined up, but for now I'm a full time working lady until our boy comes so my crafting time is really limited.
Here is a little sneak peak at the two colors I'm using...
Black & Wheat
I absolutely love all Lion Brand yarn. This chunky yarn comes out so nice with size 10 needles. It's really thick and heavy! The other week I ventured out and tried another brand of yarn, after wasting so much of my time on that project I had to unravel it because the yarn was so inconsistent and would go from thick to very thin- making the knit look terrible. So I tossed it in my little yarn collection & went back to the faithful Lion Brand. It gets a little pricey, but I never go in Hobby Lobby without their 40% off coupon. Project update coming soon:)

Yay! I finished knitting the first piece to my baby boy's blanket. I was a little hesitant wondering how it would turn out & if I could even finish it, but it's perfect and now I am so anxious to get the rest finished. 
6 more pieces to go!
