More Bundles of Love

Did the WIC drop off on Tuesday and the ladies were very happy. :)

Now to focus attention to a Bundles of Love donation. I've been meaning to donate to them again but have not done so. Here is what I have finished so far:

I have another hat on the needles, and am thinking of casting on an Easy Cuff-to-Cuff Infant Sweater. I've made this pattern before and it comes out very cute. Simple to make too. We have been having dangerously cold temperatures and that is sort of inspiring when it comes to knitting, especially when it comes to tiny humans not having adequate protection. :(

The Winona Day Meeting is supposed to be on January 16th this month (it is the third Friday of the month). If you are in the area, stop by the check it out! :) http://www.bundlesoflove.org/

Back to Sacred Heart

I'm working on things for Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire again. :) I went on a bereavement item kick for a bit around Freddy's birthday, and have been doing baby hats for at least the last week and a half. My favorite were the ones I knitted this little heart design into. Heart pattern can be found here: Lacy Heart Design It's not an actual hat pattern, I just worked it into the plain stockinette part of the hat (knit in the round, so remember to knit the purls if you try it!!) I did a coral colored one that I promptly misplaced (😕😕😕😒), then this white one, and then a multicolored one. I've also done some plain stockinette. I tried a new decrease on one that made an X on top instead of a slanting swirl that I really liked. And the burial things. I won't post them all, here here are a few: And the hat with the X decrease. I suppose that has to be all for now, Squish is crying in baby jail. It's supper time I think. She'...
