The Wonderful Wallaby

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket


It seems as though everyone I know has made at least one Wonderful Wallaby. Except me. I'm knitting for the Afghans for Afghans project and decided that it was time for my wallaby. So, I went in search of the pattern, which I bought years ago. I had to stop looking for it. It wasn't where it was supposed to be--or anywhere else from what I can tell. Off to the LYS I went for a new one. Okay, I bought some booty yarn and a few other things as well. My Wallaby yarn should be here in a few days. Then all I have to do is find the time to actually knit it.

Wish me luck!

Ahhhh




I belong to a charity knitting group; okay, I belong to several. But the particular one I'm talking about is Knitting Hope. Each month a new charity is chosen, and we knit something for them. The August project was potholders/hot pads. For September it's baby things.

Now, I'm not a baby person, and I've never knitted for babies or children before. But I've had so much fun expanding my knitting horizons that I've signed up to knit for other babies and children charities. These are my very first booties!
