small matters: Crossing Over?

Crossing Over?

I've written before about walking the line.

Big Elf, Little Elf, Pug

These elf hats from this book were all over the internet last Christmas, but the middle of summer didn't seem quite the right time to knit them.
In autumn , by the fire, watching the rain and wind, that seemed about right. I knit the first for a one year old but it was way too big and Grace immediately adopted it. Now all the girls want one.

Big Elf - puffin 'chantarelle' from Quince & Co.

Grace Elf

Grace Elf and Lily Elf

I think they are adorable. But be honest, have I crossed the line?

Welcome

I started this blog as a way of recording, remembering and ordering the things I make and sew, the creations of my four daughters who change and develop so quickly, and the small (and big) things I am learning along the way. There are others who make things more perfectly, write about them more elegantly and photograph them more beautifully but I jumped in anyway. I always was the sort of person who put her hand up in class. I'm still learning a lot about this blog and what it is that I want it to be. I'm still learning a lot about this life and what I want it to be as well. I live in Melbourne, Australia, work part time and sew most evenings. Comments and questions are always more than welcome.
Thanks for visiting, Julie.
