Today, my little Genevieve is 2 years old and my daughter sent me these photos this week and I just love them. They went to visit a Lavender Farm and Genevieve had so much fun! (Well, at least until she fell asleep!) And, all that lavender is just crazy (and apparently works to relax you!!)
I cannot believe that she is two! Time is just going way too fast! But, Happy Birthday, dear Genevieve! May your day be as beautiful as you are!
Now, how about a link or two?
In the “you did not know you needed to knit this” category: Banana Sweater
This seemed most appropriate after last week’s Cat Shawl…
Laura Aylor’s Summer’s End MKAL looks interesting! Especially this:
Things this shawl is NOT/does NOT have:
Triangle-shaped
Crescent-shaped
A weird shape
Seams
Short rows
Picots
Stitches to pick up (can you believe that?!)
Things it IS/DOES have:
Big and cozy
A little bit of lace
A lot of stockinette
Engaging to knit
I love Fiddlefooted! And, sleeveless!!
Miss Babs has a new Fall Collection out – I especially like Amalgamation and Brickyard
2 Skeins of Heaven Scarf might be the best pattern name ever (and some pretty awesome yarn, too!)
Are Ewe Knitting Me? Hmmm, maybe? And, it is on sale until 7/29!
Simply Summer Sweater is cute, although I am not so sure about all that seed stitch…
Finally, I have been keeping an eye out for cute baby boy knits for Carole! And, Baby Jailbird Jammies certainly are!
That’s all I have for today! Have a great weekend – stay cool and I will see you back here on Monday!
Happy Birthday, Genevieve! She is adorable, and I can almost smell the lavender. I hope Genevieve and her whole family have a wonderful year ahead!
Happy Birthday Genevieve!!! She is absolutely a cutie! It is also my granddaughter’s first birthday today. Happy Birthday Audrey! They’re practically twins!!! 😀
And those links! I’m loving Brickyard, and have already purchased it. The Summer’s End KAL looks interesting as well. And those dang cats… 😉
she is adorable and beautiful! I bet you cannot wait to see her soon 🙂 🙂
Happy 2nd year to the lovely little one.
As for the Banana sweater, thats’ just bonkers. 🙂
The MKAL sounds interesting because I don’t like short rows or triangle shapes. Do they publish the entire thing once the KAL is over?
Love Genevieve’s photos…so precious and she’s a cutie! Happy Happy Birthday!
Lots of interesting links…I probably won’t get ‘roun to them until my next life…
Cheers~
Such a darling little girl! She must have had a grand time!
Aw. Happy Birthday to Genevieve!! That photo of her smelling the lavender is adorable.
oh, Kat, she’s precious! (those curls and the pink moccasins!) Happy Birthday and (wow, two years a Nana!) … I saw Laura’s MKAL and agree – that list of NOTs/IS was most intriguing. hummmm… quite curious…but not quite enough to dive in! (also interesting to note there was a Laura Aylor project in the works in that Genevieve intro post from two years back – maybe that’s a sign for YOU!)
She’s adorable! Happy birthday to her!
That Brickyard sweater in the Miss. Babs collection is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing and congrats on the growing girl!
Nothing cuter than a passed out toddler! She is a doll!
Could little Genevieve be any sweeter???? Oh, my! Happy birthday!!!! (And those little kitty socks . . . oh, my!)
