Viggo and Nate have been disappearing into the basement the past few nights. They are creating a doll crib for Svea's baby dolls as a gift for her SECOND birthday that is coming up in a few weeks. (Is it possible she's nearly two already?!) Viggo is really excited to surprise Svea with the sure-to-be gorgeous crib, and I will do my part and sew some blankets and a pillow for it, although let's face it: Nate is a much better seamstress than I am. We are excited to see her reaction to it all! Although Svea insists on sleeping with her baby dolls in her own crib, so we'll see how that goes . . . stay tuned for more photos of the crib!
And in the category of Useless Things To Knit, Viggo and I finished Viggo's blueberry muffin yesterday. Working on it went on hiatus for a couple weeks until I finally found the right size plastic cup to put into the base. It's bigger than I thought it would turn out. Viggo helped stuff it and let me know what type of blueberries he preferred (French knots trumped the satin-stitched kind). Next knitting-in-the-car-when-I'm waiting project: a cupcake for Svea.
