This bright and fun blanket is knit modularly, using provisional cast on stitches to join and shape four triangles. It’s fully reversible, even without need for a fabric backing. It’s finished with knit on borders, and will soon become a treasured item for the special little one i your life.

This small lacey cardie with cap sleeves is knit from the bottom edging up, with no seaming. Because of the small amounts of yardage, it’s the ideal pattern for making the most of that preciously perfect yarn.
The Cloud Chaser vest is a design I’ve been dreaming of for years. Delicately cabled. Dramatically draped. The back features full cables, knit from hem to neck. The fronts are knit side to side, with a single cable detail near the edge. But the collar is the highlight here; wide and cabled and framing the neckline perfectly.
Beautiful Photos! Yes, I’ve had experience a Lab who got anxious and ‘rescued’ me whenever I got up to my waist in water. It seems to be an instinct. Very endearing except when you are trying to swim. BTW, Cooper wanting a cuddle – cute!
Oh.. I remember that area! My Dad grew up on a farm halfway between Stratford and Grand Bend and so I visited many times growing up. Huron is a wonderful swimming lake.. so sandy and clean feeling (especially compared with Lakes Erie and Ontario)
awesome post and pics, Amy. I’m so glad you finally got to do your dog camping trip and that everyone was okay.
