Finished Baby Sweater
All I managed to do yesterday was finish the green baby sweater. It did turn out cute and I was so happy to find buttons that matched it so well!
And here is the finished felted marktet basket. Now I have three. This one is really a good size and will probably become my default tote bag. I'm trying to decide if I should line it or not (not that I sew) but for sure will put something in the bottom to keep the shape.
And after feeling so good over the weekend, the dr had cut me back to one steroid a day on Monday. By noon I had a hit a wall. Bruises just showed up on my legs and I felt awful. So now I'm on one and a half sterioids a day. But my NOSE has shrunk back to it's normal size! Is that weird or what! I wish I could get other face parts to shrink!
Today was a pretty good day. What a difference 1/2 a steroid makes. Shelly said it was tricky coming of them and I can see that. Just don't understand it.
I'm back laying down, have a couple of projects I want to start so will do some swatching while lying around. And Knitty Committee is Saturday!

Susan, I sure understand. It does get tricky as the dose gets lower. I hope the rest of your steroid reduction goes well.
I get to reduce my Prednisone from 30 mg daily down to 20 mg daily tomorrow. I still have a long way to go to reduce enough for anything to shrink! : ( I'm still wanting to eat *everything* in sight. And, I think I've almost got the fevers whipped.
I really hated to miss guild last weekend, but I was just having a really crummy day for fever and feeling bad. Better now, though! And, looking forward to guild next month.
The baby sweaters are precious!
You are always in my prayers and I think about you very often...good thoughts!

Sorry you had such a lousy day. . .
lovely projects!
Today would be a good day to stay in by a nice fire. . .
my mom had trouble coming off prednisone too. But, eventually, you'll get there!
Who's the lucky tot the sweater is destined for?
Aw, the buttons make that sweater ever sweeter. I love finding just the right buttons to bring a FO together.
Here's to a better day today.
