The snows awake so I’m awake and we have to play!

Swatching on a snow day ❄️ - getting ready for tomorrow’s Espace Tricot Classic Sweater class with 🧶

It fills me with joy to make handmade gifts for my friends … this lovely baby blanket & treasured picture book is for my friend who has a deep love of the natural world. Our text chain is basically photos of birds & critters we see living in the Rocky Mountains. Even her pregnancy announcement to the group text was just a picture of a fox, her sonogram and a raptor. I made this blanket to be enjoyed during tummy time but also sturdy enough for the future. To be taken climbing up a tree when camping and tossed in the dirt for a soft place to sit when fishing by the river. I’m so excited for my friend on this new chapter in her life!

new project on the hook! I love the excitement of a new project. The warm wool of winter is left behind as I pick up cotton yarns in fun bright colors. This Caron Cake (Cotton Painterly Cake in Fuchsia Fun) is going to become a market bag for carrying volleyballs to school.
