A couple of weeks ago I showed you two pretty little baby hats from an Australian Cleckheaton pattern leaflet. Tracy admired the little hats, and a swap was born.
I received this lovely little parcel in the mail.
A yummy ball of Regia sock yarn, a little knitted gift and the most squishy and adorable polar bear ever!
And the little knitted gift was this lovely washcloth.
I had admired it on her blog when she posted about it, but it’s even prettier in person. Thank you, Tracy!
The Fair Isle Gloves have begun.
They were actually further along than this last night, but the first time around, the green I chose was too dark, and there wasn’t enough contrast with the blue.
So far, so good!
I’m with Wendy on corrugated ribbing though – definitely my least favourite part.
Em and Twinkie actually like to cuddle this way.
She makes a very good cushion – it’s all that padding.
THAT’S IT! Not only can your DH do wonders, you can do fair isle. I am hereby putting forward the thought of a knitting camp with all sorts of lessons – and mushrooms.
Twinkie and Em having a cuddle it is not for mastercard its Priceless.
Love the mittens.
You lucky person for you nice little parcel.
Must be why I am a good cushion too! Love that cloth.
Tracy is such a lovely person and after noticing the delightful face washers on her blog, I ordered the pattern.
The glove is looking good.
Glad you like the package. I’m just about ready to try the hat pattern, but first must finish my husband’s socks.
