Two packages arrived for me today. The first, from my dear friend, Tiffanie, contains 5 skeins of
Sublime baby cotton kapok dk, in soft pink. Tiff just had a baby girl, Savannah, and I'll use this yarn to knit her up something really sweet. I have a few ideas of what I'm going to make, but I'm keeping it a surprise. Thanks Tiffanie!
The second package contained the yarn for the sweater I've been wanting to make for a while now. It's the second time I've ordered the yarn, but I actually have it now and I'm not letting it go! I'll make this after the baby project. It's ggh Aspen yarn, which I found really difficult to get my hands on this time around.
The sweater is from a
Rebecca update from a while back, and looks something like this.
As for the Rowan creeper sweater I started back in Sept., I've finished making it up, I just have to weave in the ends and get a photograph of me wearing it. I'm not thrilled with the result, but I'm glad I'm done, and I can move on. Happy knitting!
This was one of the most fun things I've ever knit. The yarn was a dream to work with, and it just flew by. The pattern came from a Vogue Knitting mag and it was just really easy. I had no problems, and was done in a week. I've been waiting to post it until Tiffanie received it, and I know she's picking it up at her post office today (tomorrow), so I couldn't wait any longer! I can't wait to see Savannah in it. I made the 1 year size, but my knitting is sometimes tight and runs small, plus babies grow at such different rates, I have no clue when it'll fit her. When it does, though, I will get a pic of her wearing it up here!
I'm dying of suspense, waiting for this gift to show up in London. I really want to post a pic, but want Tiff to see it before I do. I can't wait for it to fit the little munchkin, and see her wearing it! She's soooooooooo cute.
