Mason Dixon KAL: My Moses Basket

My Moses Basket

OK--Usually I'm the last to knit any cool project. I wait until everyone else has worked through the quirks and problems, and decided which yarn would be ideal. I lurk on every knitalong on the Internet. Not this time! I fell in love with the Mason-Dixon Moses Basket at first sight (in the book), then loved it more deeply when I met Ann and Kay here, in Philadelphia. I made a gender-neutral one for my sister's baby (due in July). I love how it turned out. More photos and details on my blog. Scroll down a little to Sat, June 3rd.

Oh my gosh, it's beautiful! If I had enough nerve, I'd move on from warshcloths and make one, too. Nice job!

That's gorgeous! I have really, really been wanting to make that project, but the amount of baby-clock hormones it would generate would just about kill me (and scare the husband to death!).

Thanks for posting!
