Eyes open and content to be. Gotta love it.
This is the blanket I knitted for him. I actually knitted it twice. The first go it was super wide and skinny. I would have rolled him up in it and it still wouldn’t have covered his toes. I think I had 180 stitches across and gave up trying to make it square, so bound it off and ended up with a shawl. But I wanted a blanket. That’s what I get for not using a pattern.
I began again, casting on about 80 stitches the second go ’round. I knitted the even rows and purled the odd until about 70 rows. Now it’s the perfect size and oh so soft.
Congrats on the arrival of Zed. He’s a gorgeous baby and I’m loving the images you’ve taken. Especially the before and after shots. Well, the striped blanket/orange rug ones are divine too. Okay, I’ll admit it – I love them all.
Big hugs!

So handsome! I greatly admire your knitting, photo AND baby-making skills.
Way to go on the knitting — woot, woot! Maybe I should try that again…
Beautiful sweet baby nephew, I want to cuddle.
Please keep putting up more pictures of your sweet children. I love to see them more than any other strangers you photograph!
So we’ll for sure be in Maryland around 4th of July. We’re planning on having Eliot’s 1st birthday party once we get there. Let us know what your plans will be.
Congrats on sweet little Zed! I love the name! I hope all is well and you’re getting some sleep at night. Keep taking these amazing photographs, Stacie!
