Just sit there and smile, dammit!

Published by The Knitternaut at 5:32 pm under General

Today, I finished a February Baby Sweater for a friend’s baby (oh Mrs. Zimmerman, you are so very, very smart!).  I ripped through the knitting in three days, as I’m headed to Vancouver for the baby shower and the knitting time is likely to be scarce while I’m on the road. I just have the buttons to sew on, and it’s done!

Being the clever knitter I am, I thought I would get my baby boy to try it on and pose for some FO pictures.  After all, what are family members for if not to pose prettily with your finished knitted items? Unfortunately, along with mobility and a charming personality, my young man has also developed a mind of his own:

photoshoot fail #1

Photoshoot faill #2

photoshoot fail #3

PHOTOSHOOT FAIL.  Yes, that is me being mauled by cuteness in the last photo.  He knocked me down, and I managed to snap a photo while keeping my camera out of his drooly clutches.

Anyway, trust me. The sweater looks cute.

    Oh, I just heart your little guy!

    We enjoy having your husband around, but we’re looking forward to having you back east.

    Um, right. The “little guy” would be your kid, not your husband.
