Fresh Off the Needles and Updated Baby Photos

My knitting needles are forever busy creating one thing or another. Here are the latest two!


This is a Sweater Vest for Woody using Caron's Simply Soft yarn.


This is a Scarf I knitted for myself using Homespun Yarn.


Here is Woody, dressed in a Fireman's outfit for Halloween


This is Woody with his brother Dom being held by their Aunt Jaz



And this is little Ruth. She has sort of been my guinea pig for knitting baby creations this past Fall and Winter. This photo won Ruth "Honorable Mention" in the LandsEnd Baby Contest online. Isn't she cute!!

Maine's Antique Cars

I have a wonderful friend named Robert Prescod who lives in Brookline, Massachusetts. Robert has a variety of interests; one of which are Antique Cars. Robert found a hidden goldmine of antique cars in Maine last summer and sent some photos. I was blown away by the beauty of these wonderful creations and want to share some of them with you.
