Pretty cool to wait for the kids to get off the school bus and they’re wearing clothes I made. In Nels’ case – the newest in a long line of wool blazers, this time a houndstooth. For Phee, a cloak-hooded sweater with thumbholes.
And I hadn’t blogged either! Yet. Been busy.
Made from a sweaterknit bought from the now-closed Grays General Store here in Hoquiam, there wasn’t really enough yardage to make a full sweater with a hood. But I’m pretty crafty and I managed to piece it together by designing the sleeves in two pieces each. Lined the cuffs and the hood in a soft organic cotton knit:
I love super-full hoods. And of course: thumbholes! THEY’RE SO HOT RIGHT NOW
Phoenix is growing so fast. A lovely young lady.
