I need to learn a little restraint! When I finish a sweater I really want to blog about it right away! For the second time I have a pajama shot of my newest FO. It needs to be blocked and I need to shower and dress but I just can't wait. There will be better pictures later but here are newborn pictures of my Josephine Top.

unblocked, unshowered, with pajamas
I really love this pattern and the yarn. I am a little worried about how to block it...steam or wet? I don't know...I'm knitting a swatch as we speak. I'm going to wet block it and see what happens. Anybody out there ever wet blocked Blue Sky Alpaca and Silk? Let me know. Better FO pictures to come. I think I'll do a bit of baby knitting today...
You look marvelous darling!!!(insert Billy Crystal's voice)

That looks so cute! Just seeing it in the magazine the pattern didn't grab me, but seeing it in 'real life' changes my mind.
