Here's the Child's Placket Neck Pullover:

It took just about two skeins of Knitpicks Shine Twist in Romance. Even the next size up would have needed a third skein. I like this pattern a lot (not the first time, before I knew about the rampant errors). I'm working on a pair of Angora Baby Booties, also from Last Minute Knitted Gifts, in a white-pink variegated ball of Valeria di Roma Angora. Yes, it's a lot of pink. But the mom these three things are for both likes pink and is having a daughter, and how often does that happen?
Reading: How to Murder a Millionaire by Nancy Martin. Cute, quick read.
Writing: I retooled some of chapter 2 over the weekend, and this week, I'm writing all of chapter 3. Starting now!
Cooking: Tonight I'm making a pasta dish with roasted eggplant, peppers, and tomatoes. If it turns out edible, I might post the recipe.

What a nice yarn to use for this pattern! It came out very cute.
You're such a prolific knitter and blogger. I think I'm just good at reading blogs... I think I see many more placket sweaters in my future. The one I made fits my nephew and my mom wants one in her size!
I love what you did with the pinwheel blanket. Bulls-eye! Geronimo has such character. I think all cats love to have their pictures taken. "Look at me, look at me!"
That's really cute! I've been seeing that sweater around a lot lately. Great yarn choice
