hey, baby!

I'm so glad I didn't go into work (thanks, Claire, for your support in the matter!) because if I had I would have missed the phonecall to tell me I had a new nephew who turned out to be a niece!  That is the sort of confusion that arises from letting a three year old girl spread the news...  Yes, I have a new niece!  I'm so excited that I thought I'd share a sneak peek of my knitting which I really will have to press on with now.  I was worrying the colours were looking a bit girly but now that I know it's for a girl, I can go ahead and increase the purple stripe ratio!  Yay!  My new niece doesn't have a name yet but Kim (her big sister) has suggested Rapunzel and apparently the baby does have quite a lot of hair so....?  Hee hee!  Okay, back to the clacking of needles :)

  2. Thanks :) I'm so excited to slip into auntie mode again. I will need to start thinking of good boy presents as I fear my nephew's sadly sexist neglect might become more obvious now he has TWO sisters. Poor Angus - I would buy/make him things if only I could find anything THAT good. Suggestions?

  4. Girly crafting - it's so exciting! I've made so many handmade gifts for my older niece so there's a definite benchmark to live up to... but I am willing to accept the challenge! Gladly! Yay! Exclamation!
