With all the disruption over the last couple of weeks I've really struggled with sleeping. Walking around the house at four in the morning looking for something to do is no fun at all! One night my daughter put her big teddy, whom we call Abominable, into my bed so that a cuddle from him would help me sleep like it helps her. Well I'm not joking you when I say that I squeezed that poor teddy senseless that night. And you'll never guess what... I slept the whole night! Needless to say I've brought him to bed every night since and I've always slept like a baby...literally. Maybe Lucy discovered a cure for insomnia.
One of the nights I was up and looking for something to do I decided to revamp one of my handknits. I made a short little cardi a couple of years ago from some lovely wine Rowan Cashmere chunky. Sadly I've put on some weight since and so I haven't worn it much lately. I crocheted on a trim and some button loops in a dark green merino and found a nice set of buttons in the jar.
Sorry for the poor piccies. I think that its turned out okay. What do you think?
Chat you soon,

What a terrific idea to add the trim! I need to add trim to most things hanging in my wardrobe ; -)
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed this post - the cardi looks lovely! And very toasty warm.
ReplyDeleteGreat tip about the teddy. He does look pretty huggable. :)
