{my creative space} Nati

 

This is the one that time forgot.  I knitted it at the very end of winter last year.  Swiftly took a few photos and put it away in the wardrobe for this year.
With the sudden change of weather and winter arriving with frosty mornings I climbed to the top of the wardrobes to see what treasures had been tossed up there. 
This has been on a constant cycle of wear, wash, dry and wear of recent weeks.
I love the pattern and love the cropped look and definitely think that there needs to be another one on the needles for me soon as this one is getting so much wear.  Next time I will knit it a little longer.  I love the cropped look of this one (and Suzanne and Trinity would approve) but it doesn't do much for keeping the lower back and kidneys warm and this yarn (Patons, Wilderness - which I've been told by my local yarn store that they think that it is now discontinued) is too thick to wear with a jacket.

"a portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013"

Amelia ran in the school cross country and came in 4th for her age group.  She was thrilled and really pleased with her efforts.
