Well look at that! I have three finishes!

I finished Elephant Reserve baby sweater....just need to sew on the buttons....which ones do you like?

The back of the sweater:

I did find some elephant ones, but they are way too big and fiddly..so freaking cute though!

I whipped up a Bunny hat for another baby too (lots of babies being born!)...so I gave her four hats...will be making more throughout the year...

Did I show the others?  Here they are:

I copied the pink snowflake hat from her baby shower cake.

And I finished the Blue Wave hat for myself...hard to get pictures of yourself....

I freaking LOVE this hat!  I used Backyard Fiberworks Field, a worsted in Deep Creek and Natural. The outside pictures are better, but wasn't sure how well you could see the BLUE 2018 on the front.  The hat pattern is free on Ravelry

And I started another pair of socks (my font just changed and I can't figure out why?) Anyway...I saw EatKnitDye working on her socks...checked her etsy store and she didn't have any more skeins/balls...commented on her IG picture and she dm'd me that she did have another...so excited!!!

I did frog one of my shawls that I had barely started...

Works In Progress:         
WIPS: Crochet:
Round Ripple: (Started 2006 (?) Aiden)-not sure he'd want this anymore, being a high school freshman and all, but I think I'll finish it for him. He is now a sophomore.
Around the World Afghan: (April 2010): about ¼ done - I looked at this recently and I'm still liking it, so I'll keep it...maybe make it a baby blanket instead.
Sunrise Sunset Afghan: this has been hibernating awhile, 6 squares done. I still love the look of this.

Learn to Knit Afghan: (started 2010): 3 squares done, I put this in the giveaway yarn bags..not thrilled with colors....will use squares at school for water bottles..
Shark in the Woods (11/27/14)- I really love this, but it's a lot of cabling and I'm not a fan..about 1/2 done.
