Sean decided the other day that he was taking over my father's company (since my dad was out of town) and decided that he needed to sit in the CEO's chair! My sister snapped the photo and emailed it to my dad. Too cute for words!
Sean is 41 weeks old today. He's such a big boy now. He's not interested in puree anymore (I have a ton of jars that I'll return because they're still closed and he's not interted in "mush" anymore).
I finally finished - ON TIME - actually - JUST in the knick of time - my father-in-law's hat & scarf set. (I worked on it all day today). I LOVE the finished results... so very happy with it. Here are some photos - the details will follow at the end of this post.
Above is how it looks like unrolled. You do 4 inches of ribbing so that it folds up to a 2 inch rib.
And here is the finished Irish Hiking Scarf, all displayed nicely for picture purposes.
I even put it all together in a nice fancy box, with a memory card holder that I got him for his camera. The gift was very well received, and I am so happy.Patterns: Irish Hiking Scarf & Irish Hiking Hat

Congrats! on finishing the hat and scarf on time!!! They look great!
The pictures of Sean are just so adorable and you look great too!!
The Hat looks GREAT!
Good Luck in returning the baby food. Most stores here won;t take it back, and if they do, they have to throw it out. The risk of contamination (even on unopened jars) is just too high!
Ooooh, I love love love that set! You did a fantabulous job on it! Congrats on finishing..and on time :)
Now, either that computer screen is REEEEEAALLLLLY gigantic, or Sean is teeny! Hehehehe
All Hail CEO Sean :)
time!! your straight hair looks great :)
And now, back to your regularly scheduled knitting for fun!
It looks great! I love the photos of the hat, the grey and white against the black background- very striking! I can never get my knits to photograph as well as you can!
What a beautiful set!! It looks so good! I almost want to eat it.
That set looks so fantastic! I would love to receive that gift and I am sure he will too! (also the pic of Sean at the computer, SO CUTE)

Oh my goodness, that is such a cute picture of Sean at the computer! The other one is great too!
Glad you were able to finish the scarf and hat on time, and that they were well received.
You made it! How long did you finally make the scarf?
That picture of Sean at the computer is so adorable--perhaps a preview to what your little one may be doing in 25 years!
So cute! I can't believe he got a trim! Gabe needs one too, but I'm holding off because I can't stand the thought! ; )
He is also totally uninterested in mush. All chunky or real food. Today he ate tofu, avocado, cheese, carrots and green beans! At one sitting! He is a beast!
Gorgeous scarf and hat.
teehee. how funny is he! what a huge screen. yay for finishing the hat and scarf on time!!!! we all knew you could do it! so glad to hear that he loved it all. :)
That's one of the BEST Irish Hiking Scarves I've seen!
But where did you get the hat pattern?
