Here's the completed Sock-It-To-Me set. I opted to do baby socks instead of the hat. As of now, baby Micah has still not made an appearance. Whew, I just made that deadline!

Project specs: Plymouth Sockotta in color #6673 on #1 and #2 needles ; sweater pattern is from here.

Here is the Mali newborn hospital knitting. I ended up with 11 hats and 4 sets of booties. I'm also glad to have used up bits and pieces hanging around.

In kitchen news, most of the main painting is finished and the trim is primed. I have a few touchups and the final trim painting to finish. I decided to reprime in white and went down a few tones in the main color. I am very very happy with the results (and will post a before and after pic when I'm done!)
