In theory, it's all about the fiber – knitting, crocheting, sewing, and spinning – but really, it's all about my life.

Another FO!

OK, the lovely thing about knitting presents for babies? They are done FAST. :D

(Hey, that’s my toe!)

So, I finished knitting the sweater Saturday night during the previews before “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”, seamed it yesterday, and went out today to find buttons. Kris was playing hooky from work, so he came with me. He’s usually very good at finding buttons (birthday cards, too. He has both button-fu and card-fu.), and today was no different. The problem? He kept finding dragonflies. So, in addition to those cute silver buttons, I came home with these:

No idea what I’m doing with them, but I’ll start a dragonfly box, and I’ll find a use for all of them.

And yes, it IS becoming a bit of an obsession. :)

    Don’t worry about a thing…I’ll help you figure out what to do with all those dragonflies! Remember, you can embellish anything :) ! I actually have a couple of the same packages of dragonflies. We must shop at the same stores!
    The baby jacket is adorable, btw.

    Oooo… itty bitty sweater! Very nice.

    I dig dragonflies. It all leads back to seeing The Rescuers too many times. They all become Evinrude to me.

    I need to join in on this BSJ craze…

    Wish I had time to work out with you – but I barely have time to shower these days!
