Short and Sweet...

Hello lovelies,

Just a little bit of sweetness today. Made with some gifted Acrylic yarn which is surprisingly soft and hooked up mostly on the long car trip North.


A nice and easy project for a new baby. I used a 4mm hook and the yarn is DK (8ply) used under 100g.

The pattern is a free pattern by Sarah Sweethearts (link here).  One which I have had for ages, but never got around to, so glad I finally did, its really cute.

This is a really simple project with each row moving up in a slightly different spot so you do not even notice the joins. You can up the size by using a larger hook or it would be quite easy to add some pattern repeats into each section for an older child.


My WIP is a knitting one. I am working on a sweater for the hubby. So far I knitted most of the back and had to rip half back as the pattern did not make sense. I fixed it up yesterday and re-wrote the whole pattern down in hopefully a better order. Will see how it goes.

(I am currently right up on the border of NSW, 8 1/2 hours from home and planning to cross over today into QLD to take the kids to one of the theme parks up there, I have been posting pictures on my other blog, link in the sidebar if you would like to see pictures).

Love and Light xox
