Another Finish

Recently our daughter requested bootie and a hat for her friend who was going to become a grandma when her daughter has a baby girl. So I got busy and did them! I hope they will fit!

Here's the first hat, a 12 month size, which I decided would be too big, so I made the newborn size and will donate this one.  And I still have some yarn left!

Enjoy the rest of the week!

 

Excitement in Our Neighborhood!

Last week our neighbors across from us had a tree removed. It was about 160 feet tall and very close to the house. This brave guy did all the cutting and sawing, and the whole noisy process took 2 days. The second day our street was closed to all traffic.

They took all the stumps away in a big truck, and the branches were run through a chopping machine before carting them away, too. It was an interesting and somewhat scary process but sad to see such a beautiful tree destroyed. (The house is a rental, and the owner ordered the process much to the renter's surprise.)

Hope you've had a good couple of weeks without any chopping in your neighborhood!

Finally a Finish!

 This pattern has the same name as our second daughter! It's not very easy, but it's interesting.

Hope you all are having a nice summer!
