I think that domestic skills are becoming a lost art. I do not have daughters to pass these skills along to, but that doesn't mean my boys are not learning at least some of them. I love to sew and knit and cook and learn how to make things from scratch. This is a way for me to share what I am doing.

More knitting...
Blogger finally works on my computer again. I was having some technical difficulties there for a couple weeks.So, I can now show one of my recently completed projects.
He asked for a green sweater with a hood and buttons down the front. He couldn't decide on what colour green, so I found this cool camo blend and he loved it. I have used it previously to make a skull cap and gloves for his older brother. I should post pic of those, too. It 100% wool and he thinks it's a little itchy, but once it's cool enough to wear it, he'll wear long sleeves under it anyway.
I definitely like the pattern and I'll use it again, for sure. I'd like to try it again and modify it with a zipper instead of button holes.
My memory is blanking on the name of the book I got the pattern from. Chicks with Sticks patterns for Older Kids or something like that. I'll have to remember to post it.
