Cosy in the Knitting Bag

Warm at Last

Warm at Last

Last summer the Quimper Hitty’s human began to knit an infant sweater, but ran out of yarn.  Miraculously she came across one ball of the very same wool, in a very odd shop.

Perdita is always cold at this time of year  – she was carved in Argentina, where people are now getting out the sunscreen, going swimming to cool off and having Asados in the evening. She is glad to snuggle in the incipient garment while the human knits madly in an attempt to finish it before the infant becomes a toddler!

  1. Hittys with the darker complexions can be difficult to photograph…but you do it so beautifully!! Hope the knitting progresses well and quickly!! We want the infant to be warm!! And colorful!!

    • My camera is really good at taking pictures in low light, so it is great for pictures of the dark girls. I am on the last sleeve now, and just the buttonhole band left after that (and blocking and sewing and button-sewing!).
