knitting for wee ones


Finished a few things over the Christmas break.
Here is a wee Tea leaf cardi
and a little Norwegian baby cap

knit with the softest yarn-
I love knitting with this, it has a handspun quality
Mountain Girl Yarns
added some Scandinavian style buttons and crochet a little picot edging.
A gift that goes to little Lilliana.

I have also been reading over the break.
  Rewilding our hearts  Marc Bekoff

Game changer.

 A lovely compass for where my thoughts and beliefs navigate towards.
 If you love nature, animals and protecting what there is still out there in the wild- I highly recommend it!

What are you knitting this new year?

    There is nothing better than wee baby knits and in red well, that's even better!
    Nature, and protecting animals? I am all over that, thanks Camilla for pointing
    out this book.

    That baby sweater and hat is gorgeous, beautifully done. I think I'll go put that book on my Amazon list. Happy New Year to you, Camilla!

    That is some gorgeous yarn! I love that deep pink color, so pretty. And I think baby knits are the best :-)

    The book sounds right up my alley. I'm reading The Great Sand Fracas of Ames County which is written by a local, Wisconsin author. The story could be about my town. The fictional small town of Link Lake is divided over whether to allow a frac sand mine into their community.

    That is a beautiful little set. I love hats in that style for babies and the little tassel on top is perfect.

    This little set is fantastic, so lovely! Great colour and pattern too :) I'm going to bookmark them as a new baby will be arriving in the family in a few months time. They would make a perfect gift.

    Nice little knitt, so beautiful. I am knitting a cardigan for my little girl Ilianna, very similar name to the little girl's name from your post :)

    Have a nice time!!

    I love how your choice of yarn brings a relatively quiet pattern to life! What an adorable set you've knit, Camilla, one I'm sure will be treasured long after it's been outgrown (why do babies have to grow so fast?!). I am definitely going to check out your book as Last Child in the Woods was such a compelling read.

    I think your book suggestion sounds like exactly my kind of read-thank you! I thought I spied a wee Tea Leaf on the needles in your 'Jule Tid' post--one of my favorite patterns. Looks just lovely in your sumptuous yarn!
