Duchess finished her apron yesterday! I finished a bonnet and pair of booties for my friend's grandbaby. I went with pink because I wound up not having enough cream.
Saturday
The usual clowning around by the little ones: I'm making a bonnet (and probably booties to match) for the new grandbaby of a friend. The yarn is 85% bamboo and 15% silk. So soft. I finished the main part of the bonnet just before we got to church for Vespers. The horse and sheep were … Continue reading Saturday

Yes, shame on me. I guess I was just too busy and knew the youngest two would get more out of it starting next … Continue reading Valentine’s Day
Blue and Green Shawl
This is the final wintry project to go in the shop until next fall. The previous shawl sold within a day so if you missed out then, you have a second chance! This one is incredibly soft and warm, yet lightweight. Nothing fancy here: just a simple, hand-knit shawl in blue and green. Find it … Continue reading Blue and Green Shawl
