Updated pics of layette

Baby socks are done! I love working on this little sweater! The yarn feels so soft. I enjoy seeing the sweater come together as I finish each part. I am working on the two front bands now, and then will make the neckband and the sleeves. I think I'll bring the needles and yarn for the sleeves tomorrow on the train in my new knitting travel bag!Mom made it for me--isn't it so cute? I love the dupioni silk and the patchwork scene of the Dutch girls walking and knitting (click on photo to view larger). I used to try to walk and read when I was a kid--now I wish I could walk and knit sometimes! (Or at least listen during my class and knit...do you think my professor would go for that? :) )

Love the interior fabric too...thanks, Mom! It will be perfect for putting into my purse to knit on the go!
