Two posts? In one day?

So, here's what I knitted for the Knitty Another Knitted Thing Swap

FUZZY FEET! Knit out of ONE SKEIN of Cascade 220. How COOL is that? ONE FREAKING SKEIN!

Also knit out of ONE SKEIN of Cascade 220 is Maya's xmas present.

Since she's only two months old, I think it's safe to say I won't ruin xmas.
I used the Knitting Pure and Simple Babies neck down cardigan in 6 months Size. The pattern called for 400 yards of worseted weight. Now, how the hell did I knit this with only ONE SKEIN?? This is how much I had left from the first one.Three and a half yards.

It's magic I tell you. Well, my theory is that I didn't knit the hood. If I had, I would have needed more yards. I think it's a sound theory.

I think I may knit my next conception sweater out of the leftovers. It worked last time for me, so I hope it will work again. But this time I'm sewing buttons on right away.

Ive been knitting my Mom's second Hedra sock. And let me tell you. I hate HATE hate knitting heels. I like every other part of sock knitting. But the heel flap. It sucks. Sl 1 P1. Knit your way back. Do this one thousand times. ARGH! I think I'm half way done with it, so then I will be on to the fun parts again.

Up next to knit? An Ipod cozy for my brother. Because he claims I've never knit for him. Like eleventybillion mittens for his wedding don't count enough. Or something. ;)

Oh. And to prove we actually work around here....
Here's a picture of Cleo. Hard at work at the Gallery.
