Aww, that is sweet of her.

Cute hat Erica, but I agree, much to short to be a useful hat.

Lots of meetings today at work so getting knitting planned and done.

And, bad mother, I forgot to take #1 to get fitted for his mouthguard yesterday I had the appointment on the calendar, but completely forgot about it. And of course they are closed today so I can't reschedule it.

It says:

"i'm thankful for...

-my bed
- putting dishes away with Mom
- cleaning
And
- unloading the dishes"

Probably depend on the time of year you needed it for. LT knits a thin fabric but not the softest, yes you can use it for diapering Gaia worsted may be best of the list above? I havent' knit that though to compare it to LT. What are you making w/it?

I want to make a soaker, NB longies & hat, and a romper

Dani, I would definitely use Gaia worsted out of those choices! Lt as my second choice. The others are just too thick or scratchy. Pilling would be minimal with such a small immobile baby.

I went with gaia worsted 4oz cw and 2oz each of green blue and yellow trim and then 1 braid of fiber with green trim.
