Happy New Year
So many wonderful memories from 2011 and am ready to begin the new year with hope and lots of plans.
Having said that, it was not in my plan to knit for someone who is about to undergo chemotherapy, but a dear friend called and told me about this friend of hers who wanted to give her friend a nice gift. Well, you know when it comes to comforting those who are going through chemo therapy, we just can not do enough. Knitting is my joy and so here is the hat finished for this person I have never met but have prayed for her healing and comfort with the knitting. This is such a simple pattern and yet with the yarns I used it turned out so soft and lovely. The eyelash fringe was made in Italy. If you have read my profile, you know Italy is my Dad's home place and holds a special place in my heart. We have visited, met family and plan a return visit with our grandchildren. Now back to the hat, I started the scarf but was so excited about the yarns for the hat I finished that first. The next post will be the wonderful scarf. It had a soft pink yarn with a white running yarn behind it with the little sparkles found in the yarn in the hat. Please join me in praying for the soon to be owner of this creation. I am sure she will feel the love.
