A day in the life of a skein of yarn in our house. Quickly and enthusiastically balled up and on the needles before you can blink.
The recent cold weather had me thinking of winter woollens earlier than normal this year. Usually it isn't til mid September or later before I start scouring Ravelry for hat and mitten patterns, but here we are at the tail end of August with the first of the winter knits already off the needles! I like to think this makes me ahead of the game... hm..
And the photo shoot? The midget had very definite plans of standing with his flag. His England flag. He was very insistent about it and styled it in his own unique way.
And now, to stay ahead of the game, I still have a whole skein left to make mittens and gators - matchy matchy...
So sweet!

They are getting the idea of blogging now; I guess seeing me style things has made them a bit savvy when it comes to a shoot ;-)

Can't wait to see the next cutie matchy winter gear, had to laugh on your midget styling the flag :)

well it will probably be mittens and gators - mitten pattern in the sidebar. I am sure they are going to get ot an age where they refuse to have anything remotely the same, so I'm trying to get as much matchy matchy in before they get too 'cool' for mama made ;-)
I have no idea why he wanted that flag in ?!

Mashallah! They look lovely- loved the yarn before the hats and love it afterwards as well!
