some knitting is getting done between life and gardening!

the little anchor hat is a gift for one of nate's friends.  i sure hope they enjoy it!  the hat itself is simple as can be, but the embroidery took some time.  i drew out the anchor on some regular old computer paper, pinned it in place, and used it as a template for the embroidery.  all in all i think it turned out well, but next time i think i'll be using some thinner paper!  picking the tiny paper bits out of the stitches proved exhausting!.... though, it may also have something to do with the fact that i constructed the entire thing from start to finish in one sitting!  LOL 

the booties and bonnet are for miss lauren's baby shower.  oh how i love making gifts for little girls!

i have this HUGE box of knit picks yarn, then i bought all this hand-dyed felt on etsy... once i made the first one (which was super quick and easy) i was hooked!
