I apologize again for the unintended second hiatus (shorter this time!). While I've been away from the blog, internet, and the podcast, I was traveling with my family to Switzerland and France--as sort of a babymoon to have a vacation before the baby is born and I'm stuck at home :)
If you're curious about the trip, download and listen to the podcast episode. This is a long one!
Off The Needles
- Saartje's Bootees: I like the end result of this pattern but it's so fussy!! It involves casting on in the middle, and making buttonholes, and seaming. It's a great pattern for teaching a new knitter how to do all those, but for all that fuss, the product seems just so.... Small. LOL.
- Stella Pixie Hat: it ended up too big for Alicia's little newborn head--I was taking to heart all the saying that we always underestimate a newborn's head size, so I ended up overcompensating. Yarn: 3IG Adorn Sock in Sea Anemone.
- Samadhi: cast off on the plane to Paris!
- Honey Cowl: cast off on the plane home!
