Finally Faith and More

I have not been idle, sitting around eating bonbons, and watching TV. I have plenty of project photos to share what I have been knitting.

Faith is finished and I have worn it many times. Love it!

And then, there are the sweaters for the grandchildren ...

Turtle Crossing Sweater for oldest grandson, Joshua (age 6) -- I made up the pattern and used elements from the afghan square designed by Celeste Pinearo published in The Great American Afghan and the turtle from Barbara Walker's third Treasury.

Fast and Faster Pullover for second grandson, Szachary (age 4) -- I designed the sweater.

Owlet Sweater for youngest grandson, Benjamin (age 2) -- I designed the sweater except for the owl cable.

Baby Katrina Ballerina Lace Layering Cardigan (downsized version of Carrol Feller's design) for granddaughter, Karalyn (age 9 mos.)

And finally, a little cardigan I made for the expected granddaughter of a coworker. The design is original but the stitch patterns are from stitch dictionaries. I call it the "Sweatpea Cardigan."
