The baby ballerina top is coming along slowly - I've made it to the collar increases on the right front and dug out a circular 3.25mm needle so that I could work more easily on it while sitting on the train (saves elbowing fellow passengers with every stitch). Problem is that I have so far not managed to sit down on the train. Tomorrow we are going to try out a new arrangement - I'm going in to work early and Tim will take baby bear to childcare so I'll see how I fare on the 7:40am. Hmm, maybe the 7:50am. Do you think that the 8:00am would be crowded?
I have also been distracted by a lovely garter stitch bib that was worn recently by Baby C and knitted by his lovely mother over at Clementine's Shoes. Garter stitch drives me up the wall so I crocheted one instead, using left over baby bobble jacket recycled cotton and half-trebles. Crochet is great - so quick. Just the ends to deal with and we'll be ready for more adventures in independent spooning (baby bear's newest trick).

There's no gentle way to break this to you, so here goes...
DH reckons that if he doesn't make the 7:14 (1 station before you), he won't get a seat.
He has taken to getting the bus which goes up Hotham St, along Commercial Rd and into town along St Kilda Rd. Hardly anyone else on it!
Yikes- just read Moorcat's comment- the bus sounds like a good option, if you can knit on a bus without getting motion sickness like I do...
Re the bib- I must confess can't lay claim to having knitted it- it was a virtual baby shower gift from jacqueline http://passionfruit.typepad.com/serendipity/
