Projects on the go

"Blossom" from Magknits is all knitted and seamed and turned out really cute. No picture of this knit yet until I attach the ribbon ties. I am thinking that black velvet ties will look good against the bright orange yarn.

Heart Scarf from knitty.com using the Japanese Tussah Silk I got from Hand-Art in Zurich

Baby Cardi worked with Lana Grossa Merino Print yarn using a pattern I made up as I went along . This was a quick knit and the yarn is so soft. The varigated green and pink go together although you can't really tell by looking at the picture. This sweater is crying...block me!!!

Swiss vacation pictures

Here are a few of my favorite pictures that we took on our vacation. I loved, loved, loved Switzerland and it was so nice to have this “babymoon” with the hubster before Baby K arrives.

Awwww...

Of course, I had to go yarn shopping and bought a few goodies back. I especially love the pink Japanese Tussah Silk that I bought at Hand-Art in Neumarkt, Zurich. I have been knitting the heart scarf from knitty.com using this yarn and size 6mm needles. It’s turning out loooooovely:)

Thoughts

We’ve been waiting to see your sweet little face
To hold you in our arms in a tight embrace
A cute little nose
And ten tiny toes
Two twinkly, fluttering eyes
As you dream and sigh
Your baby fingers that grasp and hold
So small your frame we want to enfold
The curls that frame your sweet baby brow
We’re excited to watch you learn to talk and grow
You’re our sweet little angel sent to us from above
We will care for you, be there for you and nurture you with our love
God keep you safe and warm our sweet little pearl
Come soon and meet us our precious baby girl

Babymoon

Hubby and I are leaving for Switzerland for two weeks. No cooking, no cleaning, no laundry…just mountains and waterfalls and lakes and green, green grass. Can’t wait to relax and soak it all in. Vacation knitting will include "Blossom" from MagKnits using some bright orange Phildar Licorne yarn for a fun knit:)
