Snow

A rare gift – evening snowfall. This photo was taken about three hours ago when all the flakes were driving at 45 degrees and the patio was covered but the grass was not.

I set up camp with laptop, candles, and pretty views out the windows, and have been watching another inch or two fall – a mix of feathery, quiet snow and the occasional burst of loud sleet. We’re lucky to get a single snowfall like this each year, so I’m busy soaking it in. Pretty, calm and quiet.

Ta-da!

A final photo shoot for the broken rib sweater, now that I finally have the neck finished.


Once I finally started paying attention to this one, it just zoomed. The back took four and a half months, the front and sleeves about three weeks.


It looks a bit floofy and unblocked here (thanks to the super stretchy ribbing), but the shoulders look smooth on, and there’s plenty of good growing length in the body and sleeves.


So satisfying to be done! I love the way this one turned out — simple, soft, and cute. And two final shots with the kiddo, front:
