Happy Canada Day!

 I am going off schedule with this post but I wanted to wish all my Canadian friends a very happy Canada Day.  


This short You-Tube video says what I feel about my country 



A wee finish

 Here is the little knitted project I was telling you about last time....


My friend is expecting a new grand baby so I want to make a couple things to welcome the new addition.  This is the toy I often make for babies and the pattern can be found HERE.  I used sock yarn for this one but I have made it in other weights of yarn as well.  It measures about 12" from the tip of the hat to his/her toes.

- THIS is a cute project for summer use.

- Depending on the colourway you choose, THIS would be a nice addition to your decor (and would use up scraps too).

- You could use THIS pattern to make all sorts of things.

- THIS would be a fun project and wouldn't it make nice gifts too?
