August 15th Day 15 of cast on mania

Yesterdays project was a size 10 langston for Bella in a gorgeous deep red :0)  I am really enjoying knitting this pattern to the point that todays project did not get very far as when i wanted to watch a movie and knit along i ended up picking up langston again as I had the pattern printed out ready and it was enjoyable, I did however start todays project as required.
this is where I got up to last night with langston
Todays cast on was the sleepsuit for baby pebbles.
Love mel x

Todays project was the Slope hat by Susan B Anderson, it was a lovely quick knit and I was able to complete it whilst having a knit with my friend Kylie and Kylie managed to cast off her project as well so a very satisfying knitting session for both of us :0)

August 11th Day 11 of cast on mania

Hi all,
I have pictures of yesterdays project as promised, but unfortunately I ran out of puff and it isn't a complete project quite yet, almost though :0)
Meet Fat Robin, another of the wonderful Susan B Andersons creations :0)  this one is a free pattern on the fantastic site Petite Purls which is a childrens pattern site-love, love, love it :0)
Poor fat robin still needs his eyes and beak and half a nest and I better not forget some eggs either, I am going to have so much finishing up all these projects after the cast on mania challenge is completed :0)
Tomorrow you get to see my jungle gym overalls :0)
