Embroidered

I played with my new embroidery unit for my new-to-me sewing machine 
and made these applique snowmen on canvas.
They will soon be sewn into a couch pillow.
 I also played a bit with the second sock on the knitting machine.  
I almost knew what I was doing each step of the way this time!
I only have to add the ribbing along the leg and I will bind it off from the needles
and then seam it up!
A lovely end of a day finds me with little Lena giving my leg a hug as I knit.
She has been with me now 2 years!  
She has been a very sweet shadow throughout this time.

  7. Lena is a sweetie - unfortunately our tom always wants to snuggle on my chest - it's not so great when 5 kg of "dead cat" sleep under my chin:)
    and I like the blanket - not the usual pastel baby colours and an interesting pattern!

AHHH, SOCKS ON THE NEEDLES!

 The new yarn is pleasant to work with--enjoy as soft as KnitPicks Stroll but not as rough as LionBrand's sock yarn.  I do love the colo...
