fawn hoodie & leggies








I just received my copy of Taproot: Issue 7, GATHER yesterday! Aww....I'm so happy to see my babe on the pages. Photographed this past November on the very last bearable day to be outside without a coat.

The hoodie is a quick knit, made in Quince & Co. Puffin. I'm smitten with these colors together—twig, chanterelle, and clay. I think it'd be lovely with bird's egg swapped out for clay if you are knitting for a little lad (or nix the color block and pick just one color). Also, as a bonus, the sweater is sized from 3 months to 12 years—Fawn hoodies for everyone!

Oh, I almost forgot about the legwarmers made in Chickadee. Added warmth for fall and winter, these leggies were well worn by Immie last year. Looking forward to getting those out again soon for it is getting chilly here at night! Fall is coming...

You can see more info about these projects on Ravelry. You can purchase the issue here (there's lots of fantastic content in this issue, as always).

Holy cow, she's cute! I love that she appears to be sneaking around woods.

I can't wait for my copy of Taproot to arrive. I've got a little guy who would love a hooded sweater.
