Baby things! Squee!

The news that our nice neighbor is expecting was great news around our house. Baby things to knit! We don't know if our new neighbor-to-be is a he or a she yet, so that makes the project selection a bit more interesting, but I'm always up for a challenge. The pattern I've picked is the "baby sack" from Knitty-- http://www.knitty.com/issuesummer07/PATTzodiac.html
I think this a great gender-non-specific idea, although being a non-mother myself, I had no idea that blankets for babies were now considered a no-no. Yikes, it is a scary world out there! Our new little friend will be born in December, so I'm figuring warmth is good, especially up here.

So, let's see where that leaves the WIP list:

• Hat #4
• Weasley sweater
• Xmas Afghan
• Recycled t-shirt bags
• Freeform purse
• The bee and bear
• Dying yarn
• Baby washcloths
• Baby sack

Oh, and at least two scarves and one hat to be started. Whee!
