Working on a sample for upcoming KidsCraft class on knitting fingerless gloves. Just need to cast-off, then stitch it closed, leaving a hole for the thumb. It will be interesting to see how the kids do with this project (their request).

Playing with yarn and a variation on a pattern I loved many years ago. Many mistakes in this one but they don’t change the size or shape…just the look. I’ll be giving this pattern another try and maybe skip the lacey row.

Just finished this for my granddaughter, Amalia. Bodice was crocheted while I was there visiting (so I could be sure it fit properly). She picked all the colors for the flowers and had a special request for the butterfly.
Amalia LOVES flowers. Her great-grandmother would be so proud of this girlie. She can name all the plants (flowers and yes) in their yard and a good number at the parks. So sweet. She will spend hours all alone playing in the garden.❤️🥰❤️
