OMG. I can’t believe it’s after 5 pm and I
just realized it was Wednesday, and I forgot to blog.
It’s been a busy week so far, out running
errands on Monday, a writing session with a friend at McDonalds yesterday, so by Tuesday
night I was whipped. Had a 2 hour nap at dinner time and was a bit disoriented
the rest of the evening. Today was laundry, as I had put it off too long and
was out of the essentials.
I started to crochet while I was over at
the main building doing the wash, and kept right on going when I got back. Not
sure what finally trigged my memory about the blog, usually I'm better organized.
I’m making a baby set for a friend, a special
order for her to give as a gift at a baby shower. I’m making a baby cocoon,
with matching hat for the new baby, plus a hat for the baby at age one, and a
matching one for the older sibling. The theme is white, green and yellow with a
Green Bay Packer logo. Don’t know who’s the football fan in that family, for me
it would have to have been double blue, for the Toronto Argonauts, my Dad’s
team.
I love these baby cocoons, the possible
themes are unbelievable. They’ve become very popular with photographers as
props when taking photos of newborns.

Check them out on Pinterest, either by a
search of knit/crocheted baby cocoons, or baby photography, there are sites
galore.
I love crocheting for babies, it’s such fun
and there are so many choices in the patterns to try, from sweaters, to afghans
and toys.
It must be the time change and a few days
of sun that have thrown me off. Even though it called for rain/snow today and
tomorrow, so far it hasn’t amounted to anything. You can just feel the
difference in the air. Winter will soon be over, weather wise as the days
progress, and officially when Spring arrives tomorrow according to the calendar.
It can't come soon enough.
