knitting in the sun, behind the house


the libby cardigan is growing quickly, it's lovely wool and so smooth running through my fingers. naomi is already thinking of buttons, she wishes for wooden ones. and yes i do have still a good stash of such some where in a box in a cupboard. i was changing the pattern a bit, as the wool is a bit thicker then called for and naomi's size is a bit smaller than the pattern written for. so we will see how it will turn out, i hope fine, but am not certain about it being a bit on the narrow side around her chest. so far i think it's fine, comparing it with a sweater she is wearing currently.
i still am at awe of our spring weather, it's just perfect and we all love the sun shine. this warm wonderful breeze made me  giddy to clean out the house. starting with the big sofa in our living room. hard work though lots of sun cheering me on to work quickly, it took me 1.5h and it looks almost like new again. yuppy!

maybe i will be washing windows soon, they really really need it...
