Good news! I experienced this about 40 years ago and I’ll never forget how I felt when I saw her walking up the porch steps.

Fun!

Lovely bear and a lovely sweater. That would be a great idea for a grandchild. Thanks for posting!

A hat which will end up double-layered, hand knit in stripes of socks yarn.

Two rustic yarns in dark brown and blue, being made into a hat. It is done in stockinette but purled inside out Portugese style. The yarn is from a small sheep farm and mill in Canada, Long Way Homestead.

Two of my works in progress. The first is a striped Musselburgh hat using leftover sock yarns. The second is also a hat, the “Sip” pattern. It’s a very nice stranded colourwork hat and I’m making it inside out to practice Portuguese knitting. I took classes recently. #showmeyourknits 🧶

Yes it does!

That is a very sweet story. I’d love to see the bear in a sweater.

Thanks and respect to you from Canada.

I love everything about these socks!

Baby hats for baby week. The Clayoquot Toque and the Barley, both patterns by Tin Can Knits. The Clayoquot was knit with yarn leftover from other projects and the Barley was made with Berroco Vintage. #showmeyourknits 🧶

That looks very much like a pattern my late mother and I both used to knit a lot of years ago. Thanks for the memories!

Special blanket for a very special baby.

Those eyes……oh my!!!

Cute!

I started with 2 balls of Schoppel Wolle Zauerball in the same colourway, and made a pair of socks for myself. I alternated balls for each stripe. I did the same thing for the child and made one extra because socks go missing (a dog that likes to steal) and I have enough left to darn holes.

I originally had two balls of the same colourway which I made socks for myself with, using the two balls at the same time. I continued for the toddler socks. It’s a German yarn, Schoppel Wolle Zauerball that has a super long repeat and is partly marled. I’ll start adding yarn info in alt!

Cute!!!

Three hand knit toddler size socks knit with a self striping yarn. Rainbow socks.

Not quite baby knits, more like toddler knits. My granddaughter saw my socks and said “I want rainbow socks too!” So I knit her a pair and a spare. #showmeyourknits 🧶

Beautiful!

Thank you.

A pair of hand knit socks. Two colours alternate every two stitches. After 1.75 inches the two colours are changed to new ones. Six colours in total are used.

Thank you, Mexico! In Canada we are looking for Mexican products.

Adam Schiff just used the f bomb talking to Jen Psaki.

That’s a beautiful sweater! Also, thanks for letting me know that sonder yarns is here.

I’m going to have to make that one. I love their patterns and love colour work hats. Great colours in yours!

You really should try again.

Love it!

I think it’s just a matter of personal taste and you should do whatever you like. For me the eyes would be enough. Such a cute little vest!
