Row, Row, Row your boat.....

The Baby Boy Kelly Baby Blanket (lots of B's) is well under way and on block 48 out of 55....  Then there's the 800+ stitch border to do...  and of course the baby is being induced early - on Thanksgiving Day in Bermuda....  COME ON....  My fingers are swollen from the amount of knitting being done (but sooo happy to be knitting like crazy!!!)...  Here's an updated picture (with lots of loose ends behind it (each block has two - and this time I knitted in the beginning strand with the 2nd row so now I only have to weave in one for each block....  55!)

 

The blanket is made with Rowan Cashsoft DK and Baby DK wool...  Total skeins used to follow with finished picture... 

I know I haven't posted in a while...  but the beginning of the school year is always so busy until the first marking period is over...  My older son is applying to a few high schools and taking the entrance exams for them, so we have been busy traveling into NYC for two of the high schools.  There is also the dreaded Science Fair and that is always interesting to have to do TWO science fair projects (6th and 8th Graders in the house).  Liam's Science Fair project (8th Grader)is finished and graded - "How Does My Garden Grow?".  He wanted to know if Compost or Fertilizer had an effect on the pH of soil and the Nitrogen, Potassium, and Phosphorous levels of soil and which one would make the plant grow better.  Eamonn's Science Fair project (6th Grader) is being done this weekend.  He is doing it with a friend and they want to know if you can tell whether or not a dog will be aggressive with you by the side that his tail wags to (since the right brain is associated with fear) and the right brain controls the left side of the body - so if a dog's tail wags more to the left when you walk up to it, it would likely be aggressive.  Anyway - that one is being done this weekend....  ugh...  I'll keep you posted!

Also - Eamonn had his first football season as the quarterback (and one of the smallest kids on a team of HUGE kids)...  here's a photo...

  He's TINY number 7...  So...  I'm in the middle of My Scarf - which got put on hold for this baby coming so quickly... 

  It is being knit "Magic Loop" method on a long circular and is reversible...  Of course in Rowan!!  I have to get back to my husband's Argyl sweater too...  Like Nemo the Fish...  just keep knitting....  just keep knitting.....
