"Just one more round," she says.
I am knitting this child's hoodie for Doug's nephew Nick. It's the first official Christmas knit. The yarn is Knit Picks Comfy Worsted in Jalapeno. I'm going to make a stripe or two across the middle in Silver Sage. I admit I am a little disappointed in the yarn because it is very lightweight for worsted weight yarn. It must be the added acrylic because Faith's in 100% cotton was much heavier. The nice thing is it will be more of a usable indoor sweater than an outdoor hoodie (trying not to be too disappointed).
My read is not pictured. It's next to my bed where I fight sleep each night to get a couple more pages read. Secrets of Eden by Chris Bohjalian (it's not at all boring, I just need to get to bed earlier).
Dear Barbara,
ReplyDeleteThat hoodie looks just lovely I like the colour, very deep and rich.
At least yhou will know where to find the book, unlike me who loves to cart it around to get a little extra reading time in
Have a blessed week
Gae

Pretty. I'm knitting ever so slowly on the wool soaker. I'm not too motivated right now. My last Milo vest was lost in the mail. =( I'm going to hunt it down starting Tuesday. My brothers want me to knit them vikinds hats..and I'm excited to begin them..but I don't know if I shoud finish the soaker first. I don't think I have enough needles to have 2 knits going at once!
