babies, it's cold outside!

when i moved to fresno 4 years ago, st. agnes was slow enough at night for us to have a good amount of down time.  imagine that! every time i ask mel how work is, the reply is always, nuts!! so anyway, something all of the nurses would do to pass the time was to knit or crochet. i always thought that was kind of an old lady thing to do, until i saw some of the creations the girls were making (mary zschogner).  plus, it just happened to be the knitting was totally "in", so i hopped on board...  i never really got very far, but i did master enough to be able to make these adorable baby hats.  i've given a few of them to friends over the last few years w/the initials of the baby's first name stitched on the side.  well, i've completed the first two that i don't have to give away :)... obviously, they don't have their initials in them yet, but that won't take long to do.  i think i did pretty well, and i'm really proud of myself that i didn't have to send the unfinished product out to fresno for mary z. to sew the seam for me :)- i figured it out all by myself!! :) look at me go!

brrrrrr....
