It All Ends at Once

After having two or three things on the needles for weeks, they seem to all get finished about the same time.


The Adah Beret by Amy Rose knitted out of Vanna's Choice Baby in Sweet Pea and Vanna's Choice brown (can't find the band on that one).  Both of these were leftover yarns from the baby blanket I knitted a few weeks ago and are for granddaughter Nikki.  I was knitting the blanket when she was here and she loved it.  She also had a new sweater dress that had these same colors along with others in a stripe pattern and this would be a good match.  Easy knit and turned out very cute.


I'm not a big shawl or lace person, but somehow was drawn to do both when I saw this pattern.


Cladonia by Kristen Kapur.  I knitted this with Denali hand dyed sock yarn from Ridgewood Farm.  The color is Fruit Freeze and turned out so pretty.  I would do this one again. 

Now I only have a pair of socks on the needles so the fun begins of choosing new patterns and yarn!

And now for a little cuteness!  Miss Sophie helping Nana make cornbread and she takes her job very seriously.  She amazes us everyday and she is changing and growing so fast.  So smart and funny and keeps us laughing all the time.  Her daycare started "school" this fall and she loves her workbook and lessons.

that shawl is awesome!!!! Sophie looks like she has grown so much. I love the smiling pictures of her. They remind me of how much she adjusted from the little serious toddler when Amy got her.

Love your knitting and Sophie looks so great. She's such a lucky girl to have such a great Nana.
