I’m itching to start knitting for this little baby that I am growing, but I don’t find out the gender until next week!  So, until then, I will work on a little monster for my little 3 1/2 year old monster.  I found this perfect colorway by Lorna’s Laces called Zombie BBQ – how appropriate!  AND it’s superwash which is a great feature to have for a stuffed animal.  I am a big fan of Loran’s Laces. I used their Greenline yarn for my Vine Yoke Cardigan and it was dreamy to work with… the only down side is that it’s a tad expensive at ~$20 a skein.  What can I say?  I’m a yarn snob.

I’m going to make a mommy, daddy, baby and kid monster – and I won’t be using Lorna’s Laces for all of those… we’d be looking at a $100 set of monster toys here! 

Here’s the picture of the mommy and baby pattern by Rebecca Danger.  How freaking cute is that!!  She has a really cute funky style to her stuffed animals, I really love them.  I hope he likes them too.
