Show and Tell!

I've spotted a couple of goodkarma pieces around town and I thought I'd share...

First up, we have a lovely picture of Image hosted by Photobucket.commy sis, bro in law and niecie Alyssa at bro in law's swearing-in ceremony for the police department. We are all so proud of him! And then we notice that niecie is wearing her Christmas pressie! Look at the yummy Karabella Aurora 8 yarn and how it matches her cheeks. Holy cow, I want to pinch them as I type. Lucky for her, she's walking all over the place now, so even if she were here she would be able to run away from auntie.

Then, while I was looking through photos from our school's Lunar New Year Multicultural Parade, I noticed that Luna was wearing her Haiku! Here she is with her gorgeous mama.



So, okay, neither sweaters fit their intended lovlies just yet, but they're growing so stinking fast that the next time I try to get a picture, the sweaters will be too small.



More sharing to come this weekend, I promise. I have a yucky cold and all I want to do is stay in and knit. I'm a bit stalled on Mariah (want to re-check my math before I get too deep into the yoke), so have got a bit of progress going on Lucky.

Alyssa's Vogue Baby Basic

Well, it's about time this place became a knitting blog! I've got some FO that I can share now, including this sweetness for my niecie:



Pattern Source: Vogue Beginner Basics, Baby Basic
Yarn: Karabella Aurora 8 Ply
Colors: Pink Heather and off white

This yarn is so scrumptious, I couldn't believe I was giving it away to someone else to wear. Someday, when I'm rich, I'll buy enough to make a sweater for me.

I (re)learned how to crochet; haven't done that since I was a kid. Also learned how to make buttonholes... with a crocheted trim that is very simple.

Happy Christmas Eve!
