Appreciation

Having a small child does cut into the knitting time, but it's terribly gratifying to see all of one's handknits being used!

He wears his mittens and scarf without complaint when it's cold. And this morning, he suddenly decided that he wanted to carry his bunny around with him. Bunny was a baby shower gift from Diane, made from a Debbie Bliss pattern. He carried it around all morning, saying "MY bunny." Aww!
