Rainy weekend....

  It was predicted to be a very rainy weekend in SoCal and it was....but there were beautiful, clean cold hours for walking dogs and I knit a pair of fingerless gloves (perfect for walking the heir and the spare in the
cool Manhattan Beach mornings.  I used a skein of Malbrigo Zarzamora  and I think they turned out quite

nice.  The pattern is called Fetching and is free on Ravelry.

Sari silk/Malbrigo

  I knit a few hats at the holiday mixing a recycled sari yarn and Malbrigo.  The reasoning was the recycled just wasn't soft enough and the Malbrigo evened out the feel.  Gigi received one of the hats and wanted to get her Mom knitting again....here is Gigi modelling her Mom's vest.  It was just adorable and I thought you might like to see.

Resting on my laurels....

It was such a busy week at work and having a tea for Kathy that I had no time to knit.  Last Saturday, I finally got a photo of my good friend Ginny in her Audrey coat (that I made for her birthday).  I made a "test pancake" Audrey coat for myself. 
 They both turned out beautifully....
