Ow! All that sweater, and no Rhinebeck either.

Thank you for the link to that hat! My 22 year old daughter has been begging me for just that kind of hat .

I wish you could have come to Rhinebeck!

Felicity is a great hat, and yours is beautiful. It’s the pattern I used for a chemo hat for my friend Amy this summer, sadly.

Oh, and snow! You’ve probably told me, but I’ve forgotten (any pattern here? forgot about seeing those mitts too…) where you live… is it in the mountains in California? Someplace out west?

I hadn’t seen that mitt! Or probably I did but forgot… what a great idea for using up some stash. I am so out of the loop… I saw Norma working on a Rhinebeck sweater, but thought maybe this is a Norma thing not a Rhinebeck thing. Who knew? Your sweater looks fine in the picture… but if you don’t think it fits right or looks good on, don’t wear it! But come if you can. I am going… not sure if you’ve read my blog lately, but I put up (and then deleted) a post b is for betrayed (didn’t say much else). But the good thing is he wants to be in this marriage and wants counseling, so we are working to that. We both figured keeping my plans to go to Rhinebeck might be a good break from the tension here.

love that oven mitt! I hadn’t seen that pattern of Bev’s and I can think of about ten people for whom it would make a fabulous gift! (and maybe even one for me)
thanks!

too bad about the Rhinebeck sweater – and I think that all of us can empathize – into every life of a knitter, a bit of crap eventually falls. I’d donate it to a local goodwill, and know that someone will absolutely love it. It’s very pretty, despite the poor fit.

The oven mitt would be so great for gifts, and I love that hat.

So sorry about the sweater! The color would be lovely on you, and the border is so nice… this one might be worth fixing. The oven mitt is a great idea.

All your projects look wonderful to me!
The sweater looks good from here… You could always just wear it draped on your shoulders, with the sleeves tied in front. Just an alt shawl…
