"Keep Me Sane" Knitting

Here's something new and different. It's a Butterfly Baby Wrap that I found on Ravelry. There are three babies due to arrive in Spring and I've been getting ready. This is the first wrap and I used Universal Yarn/Classic Shades and Plymouth Encore. The Universal yarn looks exactly like Noro, but it's a very, very soft wool/acrylic blend.

I started and almost finished the second wrap at Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg, VA. Dad was hospitalized due to both pneumonia and dehydration. We came very close to losing him Sunday night/Monday morning and I was nothing more than a mass of quivering nerves. The knitting, literally, kept me sane. I'm so happy to say that he's on the mend and doing infinitely better!



More hospital knitting. My nephew, Tyler, wanted a ear flap hat and here it is (Lion's Brand Wool-Ease/Thick & Quick). My father suggested the tassels on top. :)


Felted & finished - - the Araucania clogs.


Happy Knitting All!
