Allison's Vitamin D Sweater FInish

By -


*Vitamin D pattern by Heidi Kirrmaier pattern on Ravelry.

*Allison knit it In Madelinetosh Merino Light in Silver Fox colorway.  She used size 3s and 4s needles .  

*I'm a proud braggin momma.  My girl knits way better than me!  I'm thrilled we share a love of knitting. So thrilled. 

*We also share a love of  AMY BETH the Fat Squirrel. She makes us laugh and she is a great knitter and natural story teller/teacher.  

*Best part is that Allison loves this sweater.  She has knit some wonderful sweaters that she has not particularly liked in the end. 
Congrats my Girl.  Enjoy this one!

Beautiful sweater Allison!! You are a super knitter! I'm into the swing jackets and sweaters this year. I'm also "collecting" ponchos for winter.

You are so lucky. I tried so hard to get Daughter interested in knitting since she loves knit things. She just loves it when I knit the things. She just ordered me a kit from Knit Picks for a hat she saw-as if I don't have enough to do.
Al's sweater is perfect. It's so nice when it all comes together for you.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
