On the needles

I've been busy with my needles, as you can see. I started the shawl, down below, the weekend after Mackenzie's surgery. Yesterday, I needed a break from it, so I cast on this adorable Butterfly Hat, which is knitting up quickly. I love how it's coming together, and it's been fun learning some new things - I learned how to do k2p2 ribbing, and I learned how to do the butterflies, which are easier than they look.

I've got to hurry off to get ready for church right now, but will come back later and link to the patterns!!

ETA: Sorry it took me so long...

The shawl is the Cherry Blossom Shawl - she will will email you the pattern, or it's available as a free download on Ravelry. The hat is the Butterfly Hat - I LOVE THIS HAT!!!

I love the hat, too! I can't wait to try out some projects like that. I think I'll make a few other things first, to make sure I have my groove down!

The hat is so beautiful! And I love the colors in your shawl. I am so amazed at what you have learned to do in such a short time, although I guess I shouldn't be by now:-) Love, Mom
