Using up yarn from my stash I free handed some new hats for myself and Emmy. My knit winter hat is well worn and Emmy's wool bonnet is just a bit to warm for these early spring days.
Also I finished the baby bonnet from last week - knit with so soft baby alpaca.
The blanket is progressing. I have started a new color - indigo smoke (from Peace Fleece). This color I am knitting in a 4 x 4 ribbing.
Reading this week includes a book for Bible study, a read aloud, and something for inspiration.
Joining in with Ginny and so many others today.
Bonnet love. :) Wonderful books. Taproot? I'm seeing it on multiple posts today and will have to check it out...

I love your hats and your reading choices! E. B. White is a favorite from my youth! You have inspired me to finish a hat I have had on my knitting loom for a while now...have a great Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors you are using in the blanket. It feels great to use stash yarn!
ReplyDeletei am loving that blanket, can't wait to see it all finished up. and the baby bonnet, just too sweet.

Don't you just love Taproot? I do. So much to read in each magazine. You are so talented. I have got to knit more. I am reading a Book of Bees now. Because I am getting bees in April!!!! Not knitting anything at the moment but need to finish a cowel I started for the oldest grand daughter.

ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little bonnet! And I love the matching hats. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the colours of the blanket!
ReplyDeleteYour hats look really cosy, my knitting has slowed down here a bit but l am trying to find the inspiration to continue. Been playing the guitar the past few weeks instead of reading, but l have a book picked out for easter reading :-) Pam x
ReplyDeleteThe first thing I thought was oh what a sweet photos and then oh what a beautiful blanket to be! I love the colours!
ReplyDeleteWaned to thank you for two things: the bonnet you knit for us, which is identical to the one in this post; and reminding me to knit some more on my blanket, which is just three yarns knitted together to make a tweedy-looking heavy throw. Soon it'll be too warm to work on it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely blanket! I can't wait to see more progress on it!
ReplyDeleteThat hat is darling! Did you make up the pattern?
ReplyDeleteLovely hats! They look very squishy and warm. :)
