I've made the teeny tiny Pebble Vest which is apparently inspired by this Cobblestone Sweater which I hadn't seen before but I can see why now with the garter trims. That's a lovely pattern although the thought of doing something grown-up size is still a bit daunting for me.<br /><br />Have a great week!<br /><br />Love Mel xxxMel @ Coal Valley Viewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00773581188651200076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-3507568507613016482013-07-08T21:51:41.803-07:002013-07-08T21:51:41.803-07:00thank you for the fantastic pattern mary lou!thank you for the fantastic pattern mary lou!Lori annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02860428306713379828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-31464142112612151032013-07-08T21:18:25.500-07:002013-07-08T21:18:25.500-07:00dear steph, i can't take credit for being brav...dear steph, i can't take credit for being brave, it's been a very cool summer here, lots of fog and low temps so far! still good knitting weather :)Lori annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02860428306713379828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-16286121416617258882013-07-08T17:14:25.216-07:002013-07-08T17:14:25.216-07:00Ahh Lori, I saw this posr over my breakfast Cheeri...Ahh Lori, I saw this posr over my breakfast Cheerios,but knew that I had to get downtown to work.<br /><br />How good it is to get back home and take a longer look at your beautiful post. The NYC weather is still hot, humid and challenging. Even more reason to love all that i've seen in your post.<br /><br />The Mary Oliver quote is brilliant. Wise. True.<br /><br />Lovely that you'e rescued that Pentax, found film and a manual, too. Triple bravos.<br /><br />That high climbing by Chuck would make me so nervous, but all the same i send him best wishes on his newest journey. Your knitting has certainly given him both spiritual and textile warmth to take along.<br /><br />That daring little fox is a beautiful animal. Is it a she/he who shows such bravery to enter into the water set aside for another species?<br /><br />Your handsome son and his friends must have had a grand time visiting you. <br /><br />Your knitting speed amazes me. Your choices of yarns and patterns. and knitting talent is a given.<br /><br />Love to you, Lori,<br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-77089650969929536592013-07-08T17:13:22.775-07:002013-07-08T17:13:22.775-07:00wonderful, wonderful pictures !

Love the wolf hat. My husband was recently on a photo shoot where they were using 'tame' wolfs. I wished he could have cut their leashes and set them free! Not much of a wolf population in France due to a 'us' or 'them' attitude from sheep farmers and shepherds. Just over the border in Italy they seem to have found a happy ground and live in relative harmony.<br />I hope Chuck gets to see his wolf.EMMAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02900165967124695510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163144501473367922.post-19617785664702586512013-07-08T10:04:09.939-07:002013-07-08T10:04:09.939-07:00Nice variations on the hat!
