Sorry, I've been away. It's been too slushy and yucky here to want to write. This is mud season. The season where the snow melts away and everyone gets all excited and the kids shuck their clothes and everyone starts thinking about gardening and then it turns cold and rainy and everything turns to muck and then it snows for another month.
So instead of writing post after post about the dreary weather and how hard it is to get a kid into a snowsuit and boots the day after they've played shirtless in the sandbox, I just put my head down and kept right on knitting like it was winter.
A simple keyhole scarf for my active boy...
A little fringy girlie girl thing for Jemima...
And this chunky neck warmer for myself...
I think there's still time to make one for Stephen, too. Or maybe I'll do socks. Here's Mister Dreamy Eyes wearing his scarf and the rainbow hat I made him for Christmas.
If we lived in a bigger town, this kid would be bringing home the bacon. But if anyone from Garnet Hill Kids or Benetton is reading this, we are willing to travel in order to exploit him.
