This little hat is so soft and beautiful. After finishing the scarf and hat for the friend of a friend, I decided to see how this pattern would work up with some scrap yarn. It turned out so lovely. There must be a person who need this hat because I had no intention of making another hat so soon and yet, here it is and the finished project is ready for who ever God has in mind.
When I came home from work the only thing on my mind was fixing dinner and going to bed. Well, my friend sent me some carrier yarn and so I just had to start this new project. My husband is a cancer survivor and when I left for work this morning he was fine. When I returned home, he has a sore throat and feels not well. Life is such a mystery. Some Cancer survivors have immune systems that are very sensitive to germs. Those of us blessed with excellent health may not have gotten this sore throat. Of course, my thought process goes like this: "Now if I had stayed home, he may not be in bed with this sore throat, or If only I had gone to the store instead of him". Believe me, we can not change what is, we can only deal with what we have now. Loving him as I do, I know the best thing for me to do is help him rest. The spare bed will be used tonight.
So after all that explanation, this scarf was going to be started tomorrow, but here it is tonight and as I knit, I pray for the person who will receive this lovely gift and my beloved husband. This project should take a week because a hat will follow to match the scarf. The person receiving this gift knitted with prayers lives in another state. It is a blessing to knit for others.
Jan- your gift from God is your ability to share compassion. These beautiful creations will touch lives in the most special of ways. Bless you for enriching your creations with prayers of healing. Your gifts are like none other--
