Twirly Skirts

Ask Wonderful Guy (who has been wonderful of late). I have not been cheerful. I have been overwhelmed with feelings between the insurance wars and the work situation, the latter which I really thought this past weekend I had tucked away and moved past. Then Monday past, the official announcement was made of the new full time employee, and it hit me in the gut again.

They like her better than me.
No one was playing with me on the playground.
I am in 7th grade sitting by myself in the lunchroom (only because DSis wasn’t there!).

However. When things have me down? I get busy!

I finished Twirly Skirts #2 & #3 for belated b-day presents to Grandbebe Girls Two and Bean.  I finessed the waist elastic on Grandbebe Girl's to fit better as it was a shade loose, and this weekend, during the big family 'Labor Day Might Be Christmas This Year' get-together, when we were, indeed, all together, the little girls twirled...in their skirts.

There was twirling....

and walking...

and sliding....

and reaching...

and pointing....

and running like the wind...

and looking to see....what's back there??? (It was a momma, and Grandpa Wonderful was right there next to them.  My bebes were oh so safe.)
 
Twirly Skirt by Barefoot Knits, out of Cotton Classic and Cotton Classic II,  by Tahki Yarns.  (Modified from pattern to knit in the round, and complete the waist casing without seaming.)
 
And yes, we had a very good time this week end.
