Last Day of the Month
I am sure I'm not the only one out there who has a profession where the last day of the month is stressful.
I work in sales, and if I don't hit a certain number by this day, let's say, there won't be much yarn buying. Things went well this month despite my birthday, Thanksgiving and an office move. I'm enjoying a celebratory glass of wine as we speak.
Given that this is a knitting blog (or at least the word "knit" is in the title), I would be remiss to not let you know what I am working on.
It's the Pea Pod Baby Set by Kate Gilbert from the summer Interweave. I'm done knitting the body and the sleeves, and am going to cast on for the hat tonight while the body dries here:

I'm using the recommended yarn (Debbie Bliss Cotton Cashmere) and I do like it, but like many of DB's yarns) it is a little splitty. It is nice, and machine washable for a new mom though.
