Joining Carole & friends for Three Things on Thursday…
Three photos from yesterday!
The day started with an invitation to walk along with Kate & McGregor.
He is not my dog and I'm not the primary dog-walker, but I've definitely been walking more since he joined our household. Not a bad thing!
Later in the morning, Ali popped over with Davy.
I got to cuddle him for a while so she could go to the grocery store unencumbered.
We're nearly finished watching Wild Bill on Amazon/BritBox and, of course, I'm sewing up a blanket…
…which is now big enough to actually serve as a blanket! I began the second-to-last seam last night, joining Rows 3+4 to 9-to-5. It's going to be warm!! Parcheesi is pretty comparable in size, but it's knit with a single strand of fingering-weight throughout… this one is fingering held double!
For grins, the 3 projects I need to finish before casting on anything new:
- Davy's Safe at Home Blanket
- Messy Bun/Braids & Bobbles Hat for My Cousin Gail
- Making More Arrows Scarf for Peg (the one in Neutrals)
Well, for sure I have to finish the first two… any deadline for #3 is purely self-imposed.

Oh those baby snuggles. Sigh. And the blanket – WOW – it’s BIG! Good luck with sticking to your project goals.
Knitting the border on that blanket is going to be so snuggly on your next Ducky Adventure.
What a precious baby! I would babysit any day for a mom to go shopping just to get to inhale that new baby smell! 🙂
Davy snuggles, walks with McGregor, and a blanket project large enough to serve as a blanket sound like heaven!
The days when a newborn snuggles on your chest are among the best. I look forward to seeing that blanket. If you are seaming, you are closing in on a spectacular finish.
Baby snuggles are the best! I’m sure that blanket is going to play a big part in your snuggles with him as he gets bigger, too.
Ohhhhhh! Baby cuddling! XOXO
Dogs are the very best “motivator” when it comes to getting outside and walking — no matter the weather. And blanket projects in cold weather offer such a built-in bonus!
McGregor will keep you moving (even as secondary walker)! Davy is just adorable and the blanket…well that’s museum worthy!
Yep, Davy’s blanket ranks right up there!
I LOVE the lap and that WIP … I know you’ve shared plenty of in-progress photos but this one really made me realize just how big it is … and how perfect it is to welcome little (for now!) Davy!
Davy melts my heart! And that blanket looks bigger now than I imagined. Beautiful Vicki!!
I’m sighing just looking at that great cuddle picture. I can feel my body relax as I imagine your pleasure. He is sooo cute
