Ginny over at
Small Things has started a new meme - Yarn Along, a photo of what you're reading and knitting/crocheting.
I have the
granny shrug by
Kootoyoo on the hook at the moment (it's been on there for a while), and I'm reading
The No Cry Sleep Solution by Elizabeth Pantley, trying to get a little insight into the sleeping habits and needs of babies.
Aparrently the wee man could be giving me another 5 to 6 hours a day to catch up on sleep and housework (16-17 hours a day instead of 12). Things have gotten better though and I think 5 years of night-shift at the Mail Exchange are finally paying dividends.
Pop over to
Small Things to check out other crafty readers.

You project looks like it is going to be beautiful! I am going to pass on the book idea to my son. He has two little ones who could both give their parents a little more sleep! :)
ReplyDeleteI just ordered that book. I'm on baby #3 (due at Christmas). We have always co-slept and nursed for a long time...I will read the book to see what they say. I'm just such a softie and love cuddling with my babies.
ReplyDeletewonderful pattern! I need that book too!
ReplyDeleteThe shrug looks great. I love the colour. I found this book to be helpful when my youngest was just a wee one who didn't like to sleep as much as his older brother had.
ReplyDeleteIts going to be beautiful! I am on sleep catch up right now, and years of sleep deprivation are just not helping...but a glass of tea is! I hope you feel rested soon!
ReplyDeleteI love the shrug. How hard is that pattern?? I will check it out!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your finding those extra hours..that will be a GREAT blog post to celebrate!!

That book is the bomb. It has been a tremendous help to me and my 3 little people. I haven't delved into your blog too much - but when you get a moment - get yourself a copy of Buddhism for Mothers. Superb reads.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your little man. He is divine. Welcome to this special world of motherhood.

That is the cutest idea for a meme.
ReplyDeleteReading and crochet are two of my favourite things.
Ohhh, I'm gonna have to re-read that one. I dont' remember it anymore and could use it for the new baby. Love the color you are knitting with and yes, "Modern TopDown Knitting" looks sooooo good! I was impressed as well with the amount of good patterns in it! Happy Weekend!
