Welcome! If you have followed me over from my blog on Blogger, thank you! I think this switch will simplify my life a bit, and that will be a very good thing. In the fall our first granddaughter arrived, so a hand knit sweater was a must. The pattern is the One Skein Hooded Baby Sweater by McCalls, very similar to the Quickie Baby Sweater pattern. Yarn is Knit Picks CotLin DK in swan, two strands worked together. Then, when I saw many adorable bibs pictured online, I decided to make one for her as well. Some leftover linen and a bit of trim I modified, along with some braided cord and this is what I came up with: Are you doing any knitting this winter? Would love to hear what you are working on!

Congratulations on the new grandbaby! I love that little sweater and bib, so sweet. I started a temperature blanket, made with my wild array of handspun yarns, and I just took 4 new dish towels off the little loom. Finishing will take a bit, then I’ll warp for the next run of towels. I enjoyed reading your blog post. Best to you!

Your new "home" is just beautiful. We have a new great-grandbaby (I know! I must be getting old!) arriving in June. I love that sweet little sweater. I may try to find the pattern. Thanks so much.
