Allison's Amalia Shell and Opinions
This is Amalia, a Quince and Co pattern and yarn.
I gave Al the linen yarn for her February birthday.
She picked the pattern.
She used 6 skeins of Quince and Co 100% linen.
The pattern was "Well written" and "no there were no charts"
You knit 8 pieces and you have to block the pieces before you put them together.
Whose daughter is this?
She blocked it 3 times.
Her thoughts:
"I hate linen, I'll never use anything but animal fibers again."
"I did like the color"
She used size 3s for the body and size 1s for the panel
"I hated the panels. It took me forever to make gauge"
Whose daughter is this?
I did not adopt her.
So it is Genetically possible to have an offspring that far exceeds your limited knits and purls capabilities.
Oh wait, she's mine !
Look at the cat woman!
Fezzik is grooming her hair.

That Fezzik! He is too, too cute. Alison is going to get her exercise holding him!
Enjoy your family time.

And, I know what you mean about looking at your child and thinking, "Are you really mine?" When I taught Hannah to knit, the first thing she made was a stuffed animal. Using circulars.
