I is for . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . iPods
When my kids upgrade their iPods, I seem to become the repository of their old, discarded models. Which means I currently own a first generation Shuffle,
an old school Classic (purchased when it was cutting edge, not classic),
and a first-generation Nano:
My husband has accepted only an unwanted Shuffle but constantly complains about its limited functionality.
Yesterday was my twentieth wedding anniversary and I surprised him with this . . . .
By my count, this makes us a 7 iPod family. I think there’s some asexual reproduction going on with these things.

I’m finally willing to concede that the top won’t be finished by tomorrow morning so back into the knitting bag it goes to await my return.
Now I’m off to finish packing. See you in a few.

Mix them all together and you get an adorable baby cardi (there are more photos and some notes on my Ravelry project page):
Let’s see . . . if I used all the sock yarn in my stash to make these sweaters . . . . .
