This is Joseph at about seven months old. I wish you could see the whole outfit. It’s from Debbie Bliss’s Nursery Knits. The hat is underneath was probably just a little plain vanilla in-the-round pattern (I made a lot of them for the boys when they were little) and the shawl is the beginning of the Elizabeth Zimmermann’s Stonington Shawl from Knitting Workshop.
I also keep forgetting to mention that a photo I sent in to Knitter’s over a year ago finally made it into the Fall 2005 issue (Where In The World section). It’s a group shot of everyone that went on the Mull Island Spinning Retreat in Scotland a year and a half ago. That’s where I met Nilda (Waltzing Natilda) and several other awesome knitters and spinners. You can read more about that trip back in my archives.
Were we soggy or what? What a fun group and time we all had.
Awwwwwwww!!!
Fabulous photos! What great memories for you.
Joseph is so cute, all bundled up and wearing his bear hat(s)…must have been cold that day.
Joseph looks so cute in his litte bear hat! I saw that picture in Knitters and thought of you! I forgot to tell you I saw it!
Hope your holiday was good. I know it’s hard when a loved one is serving. How’s the new puppy?
Hi there, visiting through Knit-together. Your baby looks ever so cute with the bear hat. Do you mean the bear hat has an outfit too and they are all in Nursery knits? I am pregnant with my third and just started crocheting and I would love to try some knitting too. Is Nursery Knits suitable for beginners? Do you recommend it?
Thanks a lot
Esther
