I'm an Ambitious Girl

There's a big to-do list in my head for today. A little voice tells me it's probably too big for one day, but there is no success without an attempt. I've been away from the blog for far too long. This little post will let me put a mental check mark on something on my list. Vova takes care of the baby while I'm at work, so when I'm home caring for him takes top priority. I love that people read my posts, but not as much as spending time with Axel. That includes cleaning up poopy diapers.

Jenny asked about the reference to the Doggie Booties pattern in the translation of the Car Booties pattern. Not to worry; all the instructions you need to make the little cars are in the translation. However, if you'd like to see Marina's page, click here. I feel guilty for not having answered that question sooner even though I'm back back at work full-time with my killer commute.

There are a couple of finished knits lurking in the background. I'm not ambitious enough to try to bring everything up to date today. On the other hand, I'm confident that this weekend I can finish, at least, one little knit for a co-worker who's expecting. She's moving to a different city and Monday is her last day in the office. It's the Baby Bonnet from Joelle Hoverson's More Last-Minute Knitted Gifts. Yes, it probably would be going faster if I had stuck to a single color. My optimistic nature collided with neurotic love of intarsia to produce this little hat that looks like a rosebud with the sepals still curled around it. I'll give more details next time. I may be ambitious, but I do have some sense of time management.
