Things are Growing

The hyacinths

The daffodils and the pulmonaria

My cross-stitch

And two new projects (more UFOs…)

A sweater/tunic/dress for my cousin’s wedding next month. Pattern is the $5 in Paris sweater. The yarn is an alpaca/cotton/wool blend a friend of my brother’s picked up in South America, and the front motif is from B.Walker’s Second Treasury.

And mitts for Montreal Deb.

The original intent was to use this pair to test my pattern (the mitts I made for Kim this fall).

However, with the yarn I had, they would come out way too big. So now I have patterns for a small pair and a large pair, which will give more flexibility.
