More cloths worked to practice my crochet. Soon I hope to be able to have a crochet tension that matches the rest of the universe.

The only problem with this is my continual picking of knitting patterns . . . I swear it is totally unintentional!

Hijacked while tidying

Oh the best laid plans of a quick tidy and early to bed. . .

Hmm . . . Sirdar Snowflake yarn left over from a baby sweater I knit for grandson Kale . . . pet, so soft. Oh my, it appears to be on the needles I’ve been missing for . . well, since Kale was a baby and fitting said sweater! It seems to me I was knitting a chemo cap when I was . . . Hijacked!!!

Voila! Way past midnight and one finished chemo cap.
With thanks for the idea and free pattern to:

Every time I look at these pictures I feel so loved. They are pictures that two special little girls made when they heard that we had to say good-bye to PatPat.

Jen’s drawing: she says on the back that she hope I feel better with this picture. How could I not!

You too are very very wonderful girls and I love you both! Hugs and kisses!
