Another week gone

This week Ana and I raided the button stash 

Ages ago I bought some bags of mixed buttons for just a few dollars. I’ve used up most of the bigger buttons. There are so many little ones 

It was fun picking out the ones she wanted to use 

Her bracelet is all white 



Her necklace is colourfully 

Grandma didn’t have the “proper jewellery string “ so we made do with yarn. He mummy as assured me they have some at home, and she will help Ana to transfer the buttons 



Then it was time to watch some paw patrol 

After finishing the baby cardi. I’ve started one for Ana 

It’s a way more easy pattern and I’ve made quite a few for charity. 

I’m using a thicker yarn on bigger needles so the cast on, although for newborn, was long enough for Ana   All I really needed to do is knit the yoke longer and do an extra increase. I did one row where I increased every ten stitches, not including the boarder. 

It seemed to work. Then I kept knitting until it measured five inches 



I’m now ready, after doing some math, to separate the sleeves from the body 

It’s a short sleeve pattern but I’m going to give her some long sleeves. It will be a warm cardigan for those autumn days, that are right around corner. 

Another busy weekend, we had a wedding last week. 

We have hubbys nephews 21st. 

I look forward to a rest during the week
