When I went out to snap these pics it was so humid my lens kept fogging up! I think it gave the photos a rather pleasing softness though. Every time a walk past these beauties I find myself singing "Hollyhock, hollyhock, oh holly hollyhock! To the tune of Lollipop. What do you have blooming? Photos by Yours Truly}. Links to this post. Tuesday, June 9, 2015. Then let th...

Monday, January 19, 2015. THE Miss Lemon sweater - Part 1 - Planning. I have long been an admirer of Miss Lemon. Especially as portrayed by Pauline Moran in the Poirot series.

I've been invited to a Literary Ball coming up in February.. We are asked to come dressed as our favorite literary character. Rolls eyes at herself}. I usua...

Tuesday, May 26, 2015. As promised last week, here is what I've been working on as of late. That sweet knitted dress for my cousin's baby girl is all done and delivered.. I just love the simplicity of this precious knit. I used a natural shell button for the back closure to echo this simple design. I always pick up vintage baby hangers at thrift stores when I come across them. I think they make a fun addition to my handmade gifts.. For the bride and groom:. Mr and Mrs. Aprons!

Delightful Handwork: the cutest cowboys ever...
http://delightfulhandwork.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-cutest-cowboys-ever.html
Sunday, November 2, 2014. The cutest cowboys ever. As promised a while back, here are James and Jack in their cowboy sweaters. I made them for their birthdays from a vintage pattern from the 50's. These cute cousins are just two months apart in age,. So most of their gifts from this Auntie will probably be matchy-matchy. ;). Naturally, getting a nice shot of the back of their sweaters was as easy as saying "RUN BOYS! Admiring each others boots. I am considering making this sweater for custom orders.

http://delightfulhandwork.blogspot.com/2014/12/two-checkmarks-on-christmas-knit-list.html
Monday, December 8, 2014. Two checkmarks on the Christmas knit list. This little bolero is for my niece Abbey. Though it's not actually her Christmas present it is to wear on Christmas. She'll be wearing a lovely off-white dress. That she wore as a flower girl this past summer. The yarn used is Knit Pick's. Wool of the Andes Sport in Hollyberry. The pattern is a Debbie Bliss pattern for babies. That I adapted from 12-18 month to fit a 6 year old. I also added the bobble trim cuz I'm just fond of it!
