Look who visited! He wasn't too sure about his first tractor ride.
Grandpa turned the motor off and let him play a bit.
Then he was willing to take a ride! Very cute. Ashley and I did quite a bit of sewing; she is learning how to quilt and so we cut out and sewed back together......yup, she is hooked! ( I didn't think to take a picture of the four blocks she got done but we will be sewing again soon so I will do so next time!)
Today, I cooked up a batch of lavender soap. The smell is wonderful-I caught a good picture of the gel phase just working its way through the loaf. The whole thing turns the dark color and then lightens again after it cools.
I have been working on this hat in fingering weight yarn from KnitPicks. It is a pattern from PatternFish. My model is a child's size so the hat is a bit big for her but it fits just right on me!
The chart comes in this shape so you work the repeat 6 times for the hat. The G cleff is optional but I wanted to include it.
Look at the cool pattern in makes when completed! I just love to knit!
