Off the needles

Two projects done!

Owen chose this "rainbow" yarn for his hat. The colorway didn't work up the way I expected (stripes), but it turned out cute none-the-less, and Owen loves it. The yarn is Paton's Classic Wool in Autumn. A basic "beanie" 2x3 ribbed, and then knitted in the round to desired size.




and the vest... I have to say, this is my first real garment, and I think it came out very cute. Elliot loves it. There is such pride when my boys where a "Mommy made" item. This is also Patons classic wool. The color is charcoal. I used a modified version of this Pebble vest.



It is very soft, too. and looks great with a fireman's hat & PJ's.

and many more projects await!

My sweet husband just showed up on the door step.... with a door. He has brought so many fun things home over the last few months. He job requires him to drive around a lot, and his job-sites are often old buildings with vintage goods being cleaned out to make room for the new. We can't seem to pass up good trash, so our home is slowly being filled with lots of good treasure. Which I am very happy about!



Thanks, honey!
