So, the pouf is finished and I thought I would share pictures with you since it is pretty cool:
Remember I mentioned it here? I was just waiting to get comforters to fill it and we happened to go to Ikea last week, so I picked up 3 super cheap queen-sized comforters while I was there. So, it is done now and the thing is HUGE! I swear, it is like 3 feet across and 2 feet tall. Wow! I was not expecting that.
I love it though! It will make a great footstool for me, and I think an awesome kiddo cushion in the future. Fun, huh?
So, we woke up to a good 1-2" of snow this morning. Yes snow. In the middle of April. When I found out we were pregnant and due in April the last thing that crossed my mind was a contingency plan of how to get to the birth center if there was snow on the ground! Weird, huh? But it works since today I am doing a bit more sewing for Baby Danger and knitting and I think snow on the ground outside makes for a good crafting day inside. Off to sew a couple quick pillows and a Moby wrap!
Wow - that is fabulous! I have this pattern on my to do list as I think it will look great in Ollie's room. Can I ask what length of cable you used when knitting as I didn't want to cast on and realise my cable was too short?!

Give it some feet and eyes and you've got yourself a giant monster chunk!

I love it! I think one of those will be in order for our new house, I want to do a reading nook for the kids.

We had snow this morning too - outside Metro Vancouver, in the Valley - I've never seen snow this late in the year in the Vancouver area!
The pouf looks awesome, very nice!

That is perfect for the miles of yarn someone just gave to me. Awesome!

Wow--I love this! It must have taken a long time to knit something so big! That will be so cute in the nursery.
