To Knit & Crochet

I've been doing some knitting & crochet lately. I managed to finish Sean's Wyatt last night (June 30th). I cast off while Jamie and I watched episode 1 of season 1 of Fringe - a new show we were told to catch up on. Season 4 will start this September, and maybe we'll be able to catch up on the 1 hour show. (The premiere was 2 hours though).

Sean "tried it on" for me the other day while I was still working on the back. It needs to be blocked (hope to get on that over this weekend), but it looks like with some blocking it might just fit him. I knit the 5t/6t size, but the sizing on this sweater was odd to begin with (and I think I'll have to re-knit Quentin the next size up and the NB-9 month size I'm sure won't fit him anymore by the time I'm done Mackenzie's Wyatt (which after a short break, I'll start working on - I need a break though).

So to take a break from Wyatt, (as repeat knits in the same exact color can be a tad torturous, as much as it'll be cute for each of my boys to have the exact same sweater (providing the sizing works out), I started a Granny Star Ripple Afghan. So far, the pattern is quite easy to understand (I'm still beginner-to-intermediate on reading crochet patterns, I'd say) and it's coming out great. I've already done about 7 rounds (using Cascade 220 Superwash in 2 different colors), about to start my 8th while we watch some more episodes of Fringe.
