Green is such an ugly color

My daughter is jealous of my yarn. I don't know how this happened -- I took her to the yarn store and let her pick out the yarn for the Socks, and the only things she's ever seen me knit are for her. And yet...as soon as she sees me pick up yarn and needles, the fussing commences. This is while I'm pumping and so unable to hold her in any case, you understand. She's fine with me on the computer, fine with me reading, fine with me talking on the phone. Once the WIP comes out, though, I'm in trouble. Maybe it'll be better when I'm actually dome with something for her and she knows what good things are happening on those needles for her. Or not.

Front and back of Wild Baby are done, and one sleeve is about halfway. I may still be able to get it done by the end of the weekend, but I won't sew it together until after Sam is done, because I want that to be her first baby sweater from me. Yes, I know I'm a looney, especially since it's unlikely that she'll be wearing either one of them for at least another month or so. I am so far resisting the Socks.
