Happy Beautiful Saturday! It is wonderful here, is it wonderful there? Days like this make me wonder if we would all be much more productive if the weather was always like early autumn. I’ve been up early, getting things done and liking it.
I’m host for this next round of the CU Later swap, so getting that going an picking a theme is on my list for today. See what I got in the last round? Karen knit me this most beautiful scarf in a pattern with lots of delicious texture. It’s so cozy warm–I love it!
Karen chose the theme for the last round, which was “inside out” or maybe “hidden surprise” or “reversible”. I can’t remember exactly, but you get the idea. So, I made Sarah a Lotta sunhat. Actually, Sarah requested a sunhat, in a very Sarah-ish way, and I was happy to make her something I knew she wanted.
It was my third time on the Lotta hat, and I still like it. I have to say that the Simple Sewing book has gotten more use than any other pattern book I have ever purchased. Well worth it!
Oh, and aren’t these special? Erica’s grandmother made gazillions of these finger pincushions, and she and her mom found them up in the attic. Erica was kind enough to give one to me and to send one home for Beebs.
