Nothin’ but the knits

Busy knitting weeks lately! First I had to make a pair of booties for a baby shower, I made Ice Queen for my mother-in-law, and now I’m taking a break from LPBII’s Tomten Jacket to knit Nautie. That poor kid is going to be the weird kid in grade school, I can tell already. I’m sorry, buddy.

Isn’t it cool looking, though? I’m using some handspun BFL for the shell and I haven’t given much thought to the rest of it yet. I’m sure I have some brown yarn that will look nice somewhere.

I used Alpaca With a Twist Fino for this and some blue beads I bought years and years ago. She likes it very much.

I’m starting to nest a little bit. I’ve been going through my house, room by room, and cleaning it pretty thoroughly. I’ve even been doing maintenance cleaning. WTF is wrong with me?
