Awww, how adorable! Of course the OSW is cute, but your Pixie is even more so.
The OSW looks great on both.
That pattern is a real wonder. It looks great on everybody!
Love that color and the yarn...mmmm.
Oh my! I love it, H! Tanya's handspun is lovely, and your knitting wizardry made up the perfect little shrug! I am planning to do mine in blue--what color is your next one going to be?
Gosh, I love Pixie--she is adorable!! :)
Posted by: Lolly at June 30, 2005 10:48 AMI can't believe that fits both of you! I swear my daughter's shoulders are about half as wide as mine, so I guess if I ever knit this, I won't have to share. Tanya's handspun is beautiful, too.
Posted by: Susan at June 30, 2005 10:56 AMAs usual your sweet pixie steals the show! How could you resist not letting her have the one skein wonder. And Tanya's handspun is stunning.

Posted by: jessica~ at June 30, 2005 11:00 AMWow! OSW looks great! The color is beautiful! Will you use the same color for the next one? Pixe, as usual, is absolutely adorable! :D
Posted by: caramelknits at June 30, 2005 11:11 AMI love it! I really need to get that pattern for myself.
Posted by: melanie at June 30, 2005 11:27 AMAnother great OSW! I like the ribbed edging. Very cute.
Posted by: Purly Whites at June 30, 2005 01:14 PMLook at you! Two FO in one week! You're smokin'!
Posted by: Erin at June 30, 2005 01:47 PMSo cute on you and pixie! that pink is just too perfect :)
Posted by: Moni at June 30, 2005 01:48 PMso cute! you and pixie look fantastic!
Posted by: froggy at June 30, 2005 03:49 PMYour OSW looks great; I l-o-v-e that homespun!
Uh-oh... this is where it begins. Before you know it, Pixie will want to borrow your shoes & you'll have to go hunting through HER closet to find half of YOUR wardrobe!
Future crafters unite! She's so cute! I love her little grin; it makes me want to squeeze those adorable dimples!
Posted by: Keowdie at June 30, 2005 03:59 PMall these OSW on peoples blogs makes me really want to go out and knit one! What am I going to do with a OSW in the middle of winter??? How cute does pixie look...and those dimples!
Posted by: jacqueline at June 30, 2005 05:34 PMAdorable. I mean the shrug AND the kid! :)
Posted by: Teresa C at June 30, 2005 06:04 PMOh my gosh! I was out of town today and checked your blog to find this wonderful surprise. You are truly a bad ass knitter this week :) I can't believe how OSW turned out. What'd you think of the handspun? Was it tough to get gauge? You know I still have more to spin for ya when my knee cooperates - mwahahahaha! :)

Posted by: Tanya at June 30, 2005 10:27 PM(Just)a few of the things I like about this post:
1) You made the OSW with Tanya's handspun
2) The color is Pixiestikz Pink
3) It looks great on you
4) It looks great on Pixie
5) Pixie wants to share it with you
6) So you gave it to her
What a great post, H.
Have a terrific 4th of July.
LOOOOVE it!!! Looks way cute!! Great color!
Posted by: Katie at July 1, 2005 09:12 AMOkay - I know other people have already said this, but your Pixie is adorable! I can't believe the shrug fits both of you! (And that you gave it to her is soooooo sweet.)
It looks great on both of you. And it's your very own color. Gotta get them started young :)
Posted by: Vicki at July 1, 2005 11:26 AMWhat cutie - you, Miss Pixie, and the OneSkeinWonder. And aren't you sweet to give it to her!! I can tell she's going to be a crafting wonder - she has to be, with a mama like you!
Posted by: Carrie at July 1, 2005 01:35 PMHey, that shrug looks so cute on both of you! Is it weird that your daughter is old enough to share your clothes? I love the color you chose. :)
Posted by: Karma at July 1, 2005 08:01 PMIt's amazing how the OSW actually fits both of you! Looks great on you both! :)

Posted by: Becky at July 5, 2005 12:19 PMI love when little girls try on Mom's clothes -- they look so cute. Mine tried to make a play for my silk bolero, but I had to draw the line!
Hope you had a great 4th!
