Baby Sweater



Baby's daddy is an elementary school principal, which may help explain the little bus buttons :) The picture of the button better shows the actual color

This is a Cottage Creations Pattern: Lillie's Little Sweater. I used Encore Yarn and a size 7 circular needle. It's a great pattern with no sewing. This is the third sweater I have made from this pattern.

Victorian Romance Lace Shawl

This summer I joined a "mystery" shawl group on yahoo. Each week for 5 weeks the members were sent a portion of the pattern. The idea is to be done in 5 weeks. Well, I finished in about 12 weeks, but was far from the last one to complete my shawl. I think it turned out pretty well! This is my first attempt at real lace.
