The second project is the Basic Chic Hoodie. (Ravelry link. Sorry non-Ravelers.) I'm doing it with the lace and will definitely make it longer than the pattern says!
And the third knitting project is the Sea of Dreams baby blanket. (Another Ravelry link.) I don't know who will get this blankey. Only time will tell! And since there isn't a rush on it, it is basically in time out for now.
Now on to a couple sewing projects. Both with time limits... This is going to be a Tinkerbell outfit for our oldest granddaughter who will be 6 on April 4th. She is so tall that she can't fit in the princess/fairy costumes they have at the "marts" and she does love to dress up. So I'm coming to the rescue with a birthday gift that hopefully will thrill.
And the second sewing project is giving me the nightmares. It's a prom dress for a great niece that needs to be shortened and taken in at the bodice. I foolhardedly said, "Oh sure! I can do that!". Not realizing how many layers and how much beading there is. Or that the side zipper will have to be partially taken out and replaced. Any suggestions on how to do any of this would be greatly appreciated. Nothing that says I need my head examined need be submitted. I already know that...
