A sweater for Sage :)



My goal is to knit each of my children a sweater for this winter. So far, Willow and Scarlett have a few each, Levi and Sage are taken care of too! Just the three older girls and one for The Man left....This is a Phildar pattern that Sage chose and he loves dark colors, so I had some Katia Scotch Tweed in my stash that worked perfectly! It is 65%silk, 25%wool and the rest is some type of man made fibre that I can't recall off the top of my head. It is so nice and soft and he will be able to wear it next to his sensitive skin :) He is such a little model, we told him he should model underwear!


Another project that I completed about a day before I started this blog, was a felted bag for India. It is a pattern called "Two Measures of Joy"...appropriate since it contains the first two bars of "Ode to Joy" ....always one of my favorites! I also lined the bag with fabric chosen by India and the whole thing came together beautifully! She loves it and uses it all the time :)
I have a few other projects on the go that I will finish up and share....these are my knitting projects, but I have completed quite a few sewing projects lately as my goal is o have my sewing desk cleared up before the New Year :)
