Ok… Searched for the Om and found it… also took pics of my two other WIPs

Here’s Om… Sarah already saw it and loves it… om.jpg

And the Jaguar paw print hat for Becky’s baby

And finally, the bunny cloth which is a WIP… I thought that the March KAL would be a shamrock, hence the dark green color… bummer…

I’ve completed a few cloths in recent weeks, though I wish I’d done more.. I’m getting there…
Here’s the USMC one I did for FIL’s easter basket. I have one more to design and do for him, one that says ‘Semper Fi’… I’ve got to get that one graphed out and started. I learned a lot designing the USMC one… hopefully Semper Fi will go much more smoothly…

Also, here’s MILs 3 crosses for her basket. I plan to make her the March KAL bunny for her basket as well… it really is so cute! I know she’ll love it. I have a soft green that I’ll use for the bunny…

And, finally JJ’s ‘Surprise’ square. Of course ALL of these still need to have their ends woven in and need to be blocked, but.. in time.. ;-) I cannot seem to locate the Om cloth I did for SIL’s birthday… I plan to make 4 smaller ones with a lighter cotton yarn this weekend on my drive to and from the half marathon… once I find the one I’ve completed I’ll post it as well.

Planning on taking it easy today with regards to workouts… just a light weights session and short run… 3 miles maybe…

I’m beat

I’m so zonked, but I wanted to get a post in tonight.

I finished JJ’s ’surprise’ square, though it wasn’t really anything ’special’ per se.. just that he’d asked me to knit him a square and surprise him… so I picked a hearts pattern (5 hearts) and knit him one. I’ll include it in his afghan and he and I talked about the different squares I could make for his afghan. He was really excited, which surprised me a bit for a 4 and a half year old boy.. but hey.. I’ll take it! Any enthusiasm about my knitting that isn’t my own is something I’m all for!

I ran 6 miles today…. it was labored and exhausting, and I couldn’t wait for it to be over! I took full advantage of the 3 duck feeding breaks that Chelsea needed and milked them for as long as possible. I’m a tad bit worried for my half marathon this weekend… I keep trying to remind myself that finishing will be fine… especially given how sick I’ve been this winter.. I’ve lost a lot from my training and I’m really feeling it in my runs lately… of course pushing the extra 40+ pounds with the jogger and child today probably contributed to the BLECHYNESS of the run!

On to better things… like … sleep

I’ll take a photo of the recently completed objects tomorrow and post them..
