My First!

I finally did it
Made my first vest.
Originally it was made for my dear Zeke.
Though, it turned out a bit smaller than supposed to be.
(my measurements don't always add up)

So, the vest was finished a bit ago and worn by my little love, Fender.
This little fellow melts my heart.
Oh how handsome he looks...
And with my hand-knits!

I think I may have to knit more for the boys,
Or maybe just the littles.
If I can get my measurements right!

Sleep Tight Little One!
Love,
Mama

Block Building
A new rug and sheepskin
Pumpkin Pickin'

Unraveled

Well, I had hoped to finish Fender's baby blanket by now.  
However, I have realized when you are a busy mama things may go unnoticed.
Ah hummm, like when the pattern calls for 10 sections, you should not have 20 sections! 
So, just like the stitches went on the stitches came off last week.

I took a deep breath, unraveled the blanket and started over.  
Someone reminded me that some of the lovely things in life take time.
This is one of them.

Furry Followers

On my walk this morning I was greeted by some furry friends.
We acquired them when we moved into this home.

They are very sweet and it was a very lovely morning and I didn't mind the company.
Happy Monday
