No Pretense Needed Here - Picovoli Fits!

A little blocking and now we don't need to pretend at all!
I am so happy that it fits.
Look at her; she is so happy, too!


I wet it and did a little smoothing (but no actual stretching)
and now we have a fit!

I was so grateful for my children on mother's day, beginning with my kids making me stuffed french toast and chocolate covered strawberries. MMMmmm...

Picovoli and great sock yarn

This is my progress on Picovoli by Grumperina.
#1 did agree to let me knit it up for her and it is going well. It may be a little monotonous to make without any pattern interest for the knitter, but it makes up for it because the recipient is dying to wear it!!!!

It may be too tight.

But it looks great on her, huh?

I think I am going to keep going. If it's too small soon, she can pass it on to # 2.


Checkout this great yarn I won over at Lynda's blog:


Her daughter Kaity dyes beautiful yarn as you can see, and she dyed some here in colors I got to choose myself. I must say, I LOVE IT. Thank you both!!!!
Editted after the orignal post: you must click on the yarn picture....so beautiful when it's bigger.
