big and little


with the decision this year not to knit for shows, but only for my etsy shop, it has given me freedom to knit for pleasure. i finished off my first "pleasurable" item(s) this week - a debbie bliss sweater for lucy. she chose the pattern and the yarn. lucy is almost 6. tall and thin. this is a 7-8 size so it should fit for many years. excruciatingly gorgeous cashmere and merino yarn. and as a little surprise, i knit up a matching sweater for lucy's doll julia. and i've started a little button-up vest for finn - a pattern i knit for my son almost 30 years ago...
