I think a family of tribbles has moved into my head. I feel fuzzy and stuffy, with a lot of pressure behind my eyes. I slept until after noon today, and I feel like I could go back to sleep anytime and not wake up until tomorrow. Thankfully Emily is wanting to play by herself a lot today, and Steve is, as always, a super dad so he’s being sure she gets some quality time with him.<\/p>\n

The next hat in the queue is for a baby. I know that my germs wouldn’t travel with the hat, but I’m a mom, so I’m paranoid. That hat can wait for a day or so. The baby isn’t here yet, so there’s time.<\/p>\n

<\/a>When I’m doing baby hats, I like to use a different yarn than Lamb’s Pride. Baby heads can be delicate. I had thought Karabella Aurora 8<\/a>, but the only orange I could find in person or on the Karabella color card was traffic-cone orange, and I don’t want the parents’ retinas to burn out while they’re looking at their child. So here’s Karabella Aurora Bulky<\/a>. The orange is a little more melon than my usual orange, but still within the realm of acceptable. And like all the Aurora yarns, this 100% wool is incredibly soft and machine washable. Both very desirable features in baby clothing!<\/p>\n

I’m looking forward to getting started on it. In the meantime, since Emily took over my spot on the couch, I’m back in bed with a Chloraseptic “relief strip”<\/a> on the back of my tongue. Those things work great. I may knit some on my socks, but usually when I work on them tired, I tend to screw up somewhere. So we’ll see.<\/p>\n

I did manage to get a few things photographed<\/a> yesterday to go up on eBay (unless someone’s interested) so maybe I’ll try to get some of that listed too.<\/p>\n

Actually, the longer I lie here, the more I think I may just go to sleep.
