World Cup Knitting

With six hours a day (3 games per day) dedicated to watching soccer, you would think a lot of knitting is happening. Actually, no.

Reason #1: I actually watch soccer, it is entertaining; other so called "sport" that are actually "past times" Paperino was playing lately, I only pretend to watch.

Reason #2: I actually enjoy watching so I do not have to do anything else while I am watching, the game itself is enough.

But before last Friday, I actually finished some projects. I made this baby shrug in two days, if you ever need a quick baby gift, this is it!
