Hoo Are You?



I finished this a couple weeks ago for my little man. So far he's flung it away from himself a few times and that's it. Of course, I'm making him another so he'll have 2 to ignore. :)

Eli's New Duds.

Yeah, I do still knit. But Eli kinda puts a hamper on it a bit. That's okay though. :) He's worth it. Plus, I get to make cute ass pants for him. These are his most recent.
