Progress and FO!

I have finished the front (which may turn out to be the back, as the pieces are identical, and there is a tiny, visible-only-to-me mistake near the bottom edge) of the KAL sweater... it's turning out gorgeous, if I do say so myself, but even though I am knitting to gauge, it's going to be huge on the intended wearer. I think most 2-year-olds must be a lot bigger than mine. I suppose I should just be thankful my girls got the tall, skinny-supermodel genes from their daddy's side of the family. We're all short-rounds on my side.

And when I needed a crochet hook in order to bind off, I had to search through all my project bags to find the one with the right size. It was in with the Kittyville hat I started for my older daughter at the end of April. It was all loose ends and only needed one more ear to be completely finished. So before I bound off the first piece of the sweater, I finished the Kittyville hat. Go me! (And apologies for the blurred out face... I know it's a little creepy looking, but better safe than sorry. Hope you understand.)
