Looking back

I was looking back at some old posts and have been inspired to continue this blog as a gift to my grandchildren.

Here comes the sun

We have had a few warmer day and some of the snow is melting.
Cabin fever has made way to lots of knitting.

Here are a few gloves and a sockhead hat. The bag is a prize I won at the new. LYS. It was filled with a sweater quantity of Cascade yarn!





This is the Antler Cardigan From Tincanknits I made for Ella. It is now blocked and just needs buttons. I will start one for my Ben soon.

Snow Snow Everywhere

We had a snowstorm yesterday, another is on its way tonight and yet another on Sunday night.






It is beautiful but it's a lot of work!

My anteler sweater by Tin Can Knits is well on it's way to being done.






This is such a well written pattern and a beautiful design.

First Born went to NYC and took my Lula to her favorite place.





The American museum of natural history.
Lula is wearing a dress I knit up for her.

On my own

My babies are home with their moms today so I have a day to myself.
Going to cast on two pairs of gloves for first born and continue work on Ella's antler sweater.





A new yarns store is opening up Sunday in my area. Can't wait to go and have an outing with both my daughters. I will be purchasing ChiaoGoo interchangeable and hopefully some beautiful yarn!

Coming back?

We have recently sold our old family home. How old is home served us well for 36 years. Raised our family and had wonderful times there but now it's time to move on.

Ella in the playroom at the old house.


The move was very sad but we are now in the house that I love and we're very close to both our daughters.
A few pictures of projects that I have been working.
















First Born, Ella and I went to Rhinebeck this year.
We had a great time and Ella loved all the sheepy goodness.

What I've Bin Doin

Love eating and making crusty bread and Jim Lahey is my hero.
His no knead bread is amazing and super easy.


I have both his books and hope to visit his Sullivan Street bakery in Soho soon.


So good!!!


This was my grandson Ben in Baby Sophisticate by Lenden Down a free pattern found on Ravelry.


My first The Age of Steam Kerchief by Orange Flower.


Many Top Down Raglan Baby Sweaters by Carol Barenys. My go to pattern for baby gifts.


I made this garder yoke baby cardi for Ella.



Easy fast knit and fits her very well. The buttons are vintage from Ella's great grandma.


I must take a faceless picture of Ben wearing something I made him.



Did some more attic cleaning and found more treasures.
My daughters old puzzles.


Vintage My Little Ponies. I cleaned and shampooed them for Ella.


I must learn how to add links with my iPad.

Long Time No Post!

I have been taking care of my grand babies and that has left me with no time to post.
I'm off for the summer so I will try to play catch up.


This is my second The Age of Steam Kerchief.
I'm using left over yarn from my stash.


It's a great free pattern found on Ravelry.
