It's been a mad house around here. All I can say is do not attempt to sell and buy houses at the same time as your workplace is being restructured. I have still been crafting, otherwise I would have gone completely bonkers by now! On the knitting front I now have 5 socks requiring a friend. I have a partially completed sock project patchwork bag on the machine and today I made a slip cover for our ottoman - here is the photo especially for Carol;
and just to prove I still knit, here is one of the 5 mateless socks (although I am just about to turn the heel on number 2). Also for Carol, in Trekking XXL;
And now it is late and our 2 year old is still resisting bed (while we, his poor parents, are`ready to drop!). Fortunately this is not a common occurence. Would definitely be bonkers if it was. Sigh.







OK, you have definitely got busy down to a "T"! :~)
As far as 2 year olds go, I know how you feel. I went through it with my oldest and my youngest who isn't quite 1 yet decides from time to time that she doesn't need sleep. Like you, I'm glad it doesn't happen all the time.

Hey the ottoman cover rocks! Very flash and a good use of your creative talents. Liking the look of my sock too!

Oh my gosh, you poor thing! I hope you find some rest and respite soon. With all you've got going on, nobody would balme you if you *did* go completely bonkers. Thank goodness for the crafting outlet. The slipcover and sock look amazing!

Wow girlie, so good to see you here again. What a wonderful job you did with that cover! And hey, I am wearing my orange socks as we speak! :) They're my best friends...
Miss you, girl! Lots of hugs!

Stopping by to say hi. Really nice blog! Your knitting is just lovely and so is your sewing. Ah, 2 year olds and bedtime. What until he's a teen, and you can't blast him out of bed with dynamite.

I just sent you package today. I hope that its contents reach you intact and that the warm weather here in the US doesn't ruin it. I hope you are doing well!
