Knitting triumph and tragedy- Yarn Along

So, I'm excited because I finished a big knitting project on Sunday. I already posted a pic, but I'm still smiling about it and well, it deserves another pic. She looks so adorable in her new summer dress. (I might be a little biased though.)  I lengthened the skirt considerably and that added to the miles of stockinette, but it was worth it. 

This week, I'm working on another Dogwood Hat.  I was all set to finish this hat on Monday night. I was giddy at the anticipation of binding off and completing another knitting project, but it was not to be. I was nursing one of the twins while knitting. Maybe I shouldn't nurse and knit?  He pulled at the yarn and a few stitches popped off. What I thought would be an easy fix turned out to be a huge headache. After about an hour of trying to figure out what when wrong, I didn't even know where I was in the pattern anymore.  It's the kind of pattern where one stitch off ruins the entire lace pattern. I sighed a big disappointed sigh and took the whole thing out!  I started again, but am less than half way. It's much less fun to re-knit. I guess I shouldn't really call it a tragedy. It's just a big bummer.

Oh and that BSJ?? See last week's Yarn Along. You guessed it.  I'm still on Row 4.  I just haven't picked it up again, but I have managed to spend way too much time on Ravelry and have added a few more projects to the queue.  I just have to make this (thanks Ginny), this and this! Don't forget to head on over to Ginny's for more reading, yarn and knitting inspiration.
