OTN: Kicking Bag

Though I can't concentrate on anything elaborate right now, I would like to knit something for my soon-to-be-here daughter. I had to kill a few hours in the hospital waiting room yesterday (not there for me) and a nice, mostly stockinette baby Kicking Bag seemed like the perfect project to bring along.

I CO Thursday night just to get the right number of stitches on the needle--no mini cable, sorry Baby--and there are many many inches of (manageable) stockinette in my future.(Look how puffy my feet are and it was only about 8am.)

The other project sort-of-OTN is my Leyburn Socks. The pattern is still driving me nuts but I'm winging it nicely based on what I know the diamond shape is supposed to be doing (instead of following the instructions). I'm about halfway up leg #1 and it's turning out well.
