Modern Miss

Hi

At least it wasn't too long between posts this time ;-)  Hope I can keep it going

A vintage pattern that my eldest granddaughter turns into a modern beauty.  Well at least I think so :-)  She is such a cutie

The yoke of this vintage pattern with 360 stitches in 3ply yarn with three different pattern changes!!!!!

And here she is :-)
The pattern is "Sweet Alice" from a vintage pattern book made from an unknown 3ply Superfine Wool Australia yarn

Have a wonderful day

Hi

Hi
Very, very, very long time between posts.  Sorry.
I thought I would try and see if I can get back to having my little say
Life has been busy with beautiful grandchildren to play with and lots of knitting for them :-)

So I will start with a few of the projects for them

My youngest granddaughter wearing a modified "Granny's Favourite" and "Suspension Bridge Booties" pattern made from the lovely, soft Bendigo Woollen Mills Milky Way

"Aussie Swing" made from an unknown cotton in my stash

I made this lovely "Aussie Swing" set for her when she was born.  Made from Bendigo Woollen Mills Luxury 4ply.  Obviously, she is a little big for it now :-)))

Have a wonderful day and I hope I'm back soon

Hi everyone

Sorry, its been so very long between posts, but grandchildren are time consuming and so entertaining.

And I have three now :-)

Just popped in to share a new pattern from me

With my eldest granddaughter modelled and selfie :-)

This pattern reminded me of a vine growing with little flowers.

So I named it after an Australian plant - Wonga Wonga Vine

It is available in my Ravelry Store (see sidebar link) and my Etsy Store too (also on sidebar)

Hope you are all enjoying your children and grandchildren as much as I am :-)

Aussie Swing REVISITED

So if you have been around here for a while, you might remember my pattern "Aussie Swing" which is available both on Ravelry and Etsy.

 

Well I have been making a few changes -

Firstly there are now 4 sizes - 3-12mths, 1yr, 2yr  and 3yr

 

And I worked another lace pattern into the design

Worked in Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Cotton - Glacier

Its so soft, love it

 

I'm really pleased with how well this fit into the pattern :-)

Old is New :-) again

Ok, so once again another vintage pattern :-)
Hope your not tired of them yet ?????

This picture is from the pattern

and this photo is my version

and here is a close up of the pattern

 

This pattern is called "Treasure" and is available in my Etsy store

I can't wait to see my granddaughter in it.

It's perfect for those days when it turns just a little cool.  It is a cropped style

 

Yes, I couldn't wait.  I did try it on her. ;-)

 But the photo will be nicer in a lovely summer dress

 

More details can be found on my Ravely project

 

Have a great day!!!
