Weekend 1

Weekend 2

Weekend 3

On the weekend we got to introduce the children to a new puppy belonging to their aunt and uncle, and they fell in love with her. Molly is 13 weeks old and full of energy and happiness. She especially likes swimming. We went walking with her on the beach, and, upon returning home, I started knitting this autumn hat for Keira. Sea-and-sand-colours, in lightweight angora yarn.

    Oh so pretty, and I like the new blog header too. I can’t wait until it’s warm enough to visit the beach here.

    ooooh we had a rainy weekend away in the North Island and I became very inspired by the muted sea and sand colours also. That hat will be so soft and delicate Melissa, your luck girl!

    Thank you for reminding how beautiful sea (and open waters) can look like with sand. Our snow is slowly melting, but it is just a guess will it vanish before May.
    Happy new week!

    Oh Melissa,
    I remember when you arrived in summertime, here in France were in very cold and snowing days.
    We now see blossom on trees and you talk about autumn hat.
    I love that enjoyable gap-feeling.

    Yes, the season is turning. Our warm hats are out again. I need to find a simple knitting project. A hat sounds just right.
