    So far, I have baby gifts to get out of the way, so this guy already has two hand knit sweaters and he’s not even born yet! Then, a sweater for my niece, and one for my son in WOTA, and I must purchase some Swish for my daughter because I already bought the lady bug buttons for a bright red sweater for her. Finally, I’ll have time to knit a sweater for myself. That should be around the beginning of November.
