Wordless Wednesday - Knit Longies

 

Very first pair of knit longies. 

Thanks to Julie for the pattern help and Arwyn for the needles to make this project possible. 

 

Kindness in the post

I jokingly asked one of my favourite twitter folks (@RaisingBoychick) for a set of knitting needles so I could finish a project, and to my surprise, she insisted she mail them to me. I was blown away by her kindness. I had a hard time saying yes, but am very glad I did. She had extras, as she was given a set by someone equally as kind, to replace a broken needle.  Broken by the Boychick, I'm sure.

Thank you Arywn (and Boychick for your adorable wrapping paper). You are a constant source of inspiration and I learn from you daily. I will be sure to post the finished project, and I hope to extend your kindness onto someone else. 

 

There is something just so sweet about a small gift in the mail. I'm so thankful it wasn't another bill. 

 

A perfect way to start 2010

After a low key, yet wonderful New Years Eve celebration including Scrabble, delicious Mediterranean finger foods, great company and a noisy ringing in of the new year with a content wide awake snuggled up baby (and little wet from champagne), I spent my morning quietly knitting and listening to the rain fall and the trees sway. 

What a perfect way to start off 2010. 

Hope your way was enjoyable and relaxing too.

Here is one more photo of this little project I'd like to share, I love watching the progress of a piece. This was started December 27th with my Yule yarn I received from Robert. Thank you love.

A wee gift

I know and care for a little boy, who is turning four years old tomorrow! I hope he finds joy from playing with these little gifts. 

A knit hat, old school trouble, bag of marine animals.

Quickly sewed up a bag to hold his new Ocean friends, made from cut off 
 pants from the summer, and an old shirt as the attached ties. 

Happy Birthday little one, I hope you never lose your wild energy and love and excitement for life.
