An Unplanned FO

This morning, my cell phone rang and I didn't hear it because it was in my purse. It was my pregnant best friend, due in November, telling me that she was having the baby today. I was on my way to work when I noticed that I had missed a call, and after I arrived I called and spoke to her husband. She has blood pressure problems even when she's not pregnant, and it seems that it's serious enough at this point that they are inducing labor. I'll spare you the details, but simply ask again that you do whatever your belief system dictates one does in these situations in the general direction of Columbia, Missouri.

I have never prayed so much in my life as I have this past week.

Here is the preemie hat I knitted this evening.
A preemie hat is supposed to fit an orange. I only had a nectarine. This is the first project I've made that I really hope is too small.

Beth,
I hope all is well with your friend. If you want to talk about it, I know a little about those things. You can email me k.nits1 (at) gmail (dot) com. I love your hat.
