I’m truly a mom. I’m in desperate need of pants and shirts for work. Since I’ve now got the poochy post-pregnancy belly, I can’t use most of my old shirts that are too short and would reveal my yucky looking belly. I’ve always needed pants, that’s just a given.

But instead of buying myself a few shirts and a pair of pants, what do I do? I spend $25 on yarn so I can make my daughter a knitted jacket. It’s actually a really cool looking jacket and when I showed my husband he really liked it.

I can’t wait for the yarn to get here so I can find my gauge and get started.
