Babies get fat really fast..

So, I brought the baby sweater to work to see how it was shaping up size wise. I did pick the 4-6 month size, right? I gently work the sweater over baby Charlotte’s head, and viola! It will decidely choke her to death. I mean, she is barely 4 months old! The sweater looks big. I had a baby. I’m supposed know how this thing works. Or, at least, I thought I did. Babies grow. And get fat. And they do this on a quite regular basis. (Like once a week. I swear they gain an inch in all directions.) This is nothing new. I just wish they gave the rest of us time to catch up. Or knit faster. Anyway, this sweater, it’s not just small, it will actually strangle her. And I somehow don’t think I will be allowed to keep my job after that. What to do? Hmmm..

Frog it? No too much put into it already.

Quit and add it to the pile of other discarded projects? Maybe.

Keep going and see if I can find a baby it will fit? Nah.

Keep knitting and make it large enough to fit and then try to turn it into a v neck with some fancy steeking action? Sounds waaay too complicated. I think this is the route I must take. Just because I can.

Besides, who doesn’t want to take a pair of scissors and cut up their hard earned knitting?

What’s with all the rhetorical questions?

Don’t answer that.
