groovy baby
september 15th, i'm going to have my own groovy baby. grandbaby that is :-)
whoohoo!!!! i can't wait!
needles on fire, i'm channeling austin powers -
with this psychedelic baby blanket -
or maybe rowan and martin -
look at the groovy colors of this superwash sock yarn dyed by claudia, regenbogen colorway,
maybe cream -
or peter max -
raja approves, or it could be the catnip ;-)
the center mitred squares are finished, and claudia has shipped some skeins of rittersporn (larkspur) for the garter border. i used the basic mitred squares from the koigu book.
dd's feetsies looking cosy in anne's red mountain pass, er shingle creek trail socks. these are going in the christmas prezzie box.
i've already pre-ordered the new boudica socks kit.
every day i count my blessings that my children are safe.
my thoughts and prayers are with the parents of the virginia tech tragedy. i cannot even begin to imagine their loss.

I've been waiting for you to make this announcement. Congratulations!
A grandmother? No way, really? I would never have guessed that you had children old enough to have children. ;-) Congrats!
Oh, the socks, the socks... love them :-)
Congratulations on the new grandbaby! I can't wait to see what else gets knit in the months ahead! That blanket, well really the entire post, makes me think of the test patterns that were run on the SciFi channel when it was running down to startup.
Oh, and thanks for luring me to the darkside of ordering more sock yarn!
Congratualtions!
Love the socks!
Congratulations!
Groovy graphics, man, and that blanket is outta sight!

A little Virgo in the family! What a treat. I'm groking the groovy blanket, and the socks are lovely.
congratulations—all play and no work with a grandbaby!
I don't know which of you is the luckier one, you or the grandbaby. Congrats! You may have shifted my opinion on the miered squares. Fanfreekintabulous!
A grandbaby - woo woo!!! Congrats to you and your family.

A new grand-baby -- what a blessing! Congratulations to all concerned. The blanket will undoubtedly be treasured by the new mom - it's striking and unique. Thanks for making us wait for a great blog entry - it was worth it.

Wow- congrats to your daughter! Mum posted after you and said that your daughter's going to Florida. That's great! Does she know what she wants to study yet?
Congrats! I love the blanket!!
WOO-HOO! Fantastic!
Yay, congrats!
absolutely fabulous baby blanket--and thanks for all the music nostalgia along with the baby announcement. I have deep grandbaby envy, but none of the older kids are reproducing.
Happy news! Congratulations!
The future looks as bright as the colors in the psychedelic baby blanket!
...love those socks!
