This week I finished
a languishing cardigan for Lucy that I began during the first week of Great Lent in
Maine. She has all but outgrown it already, but I think she'll be able to wear it unbuttoned for a bit longer. Since taking these pictures I have added bronze engraved buttons, which I'll have to capture next time. The grosgrain ribbon on the button band was a lot of fun to do, which was a surprise because I always imagined it would be tedious. I watched the
Knitmore Girls' tutorial, which I highly recommend.
I've just begun
A Game of Thrones on my own and Pete and I are rereading the Harry Potter series aloud together. It's one of my favorite times of day. While we wind Lucy down for the night, we can usually enjoy a few pages. It's slow going, but why hurry?
I am rushing through my
owlet, though. Next time I knit it, I might try to reverse-engineer it into a top-down sweater though, like
Frontier Dreams did.
