Here is a sample of my projects this summer. I have always wanted to make a 4th of July dessert, so this year I did! Doesn't it look patriotic? And it tasted good too!
Knitting summer wear is not so easy to do, so I got a head start on winter wear. Jackie requested a headband to keep her ears warm, so here it is. I even knit the little flower decoration! Looks great with a tank top, eh? Jackie wore it while floating in the pool. I guess she liked it.
Last but not least, here is the baby sweater and matching booties I have been working on. It's my first big knit project, so it's got some funky areas, but overall I'm pretty pleased. Anybody having a baby girl soon? (In case anyone is wondering, we are not!)

Wow! And the student WAY surpasses the teacher. That sweater/bootie combo is so cute. Were those pockets on that sweater? You must tell me what book you're using. The last time I tried to make booties, I knit three booties that were all different sizes!
Hey thanks! I used a Debbie Bliss book (and lots of other ones to helpo me figure out what I was supposed to do.)After that sweater, the booties were a snap!
What a gal, I'm so proud of you, your domestic side is growing and looking great. I remember when I first knit baby sweaters, I was your age and would knit them for all my friends babies. The Hat is darling and looks great on you. Love you MOM H.
You make hobbies look so fun!
Hobbies are fun! I forgot to show my cross stitch hydrangea pillow - on my next craft post maybe.
