Pretty in Pink

I finished Eliana's sweater yesterday and made Jack wear it so I could take a picture. His weenus didn't fall off but my Granny saw the pic and according to mom all she could say was, "Jack (my grandfather) would have had a fit putting that boy in pink!"

It has some issues (the sweater does) but I'm fairly pleased with it over all. I wasn't expecting my first sweater to be perfect. As expected I did have some trouble sewing the seams and the neck is a little messy. Eliana is two months older than Jack so it should fit her better than it does him and give some growing room.

Never in my life have I been able to make things that looked even ok. I'm not a crafty person. It makes me so happy to be able to make things for people that people like. . . something other than food (or babies).

My brother and his wife are having an ultrasound right now to find out what gender cousin #5 is. I'll have a new one to knit for soon!

eta: It's a boy! I can knit tiny little boy soakers and pants now. Yay!
