I got a lovely email this morning telling me that the latest issue of Small Magazine was available. I’ve shared this once before. Every new issue inspires me so much that I just can’t not mention it.

This time, more than one photo made me want to knit a red hat for Emily.

Aren’t these Polaroids great?

And I pretty much love everything about this spread:

So feminine. So sweet. Braids. Dresses that I could totally make. Dancers. Fruit. :)

Well…

I’m decidedly not knitting a hat for the girl. But I am making a kerchief which may become a shawl. If I have enough yarn.

Funny thing - I cannot retrace the thought-process that led to me not making a hat. Huh.

But I will make her a dress like that pale peachy one.

If I can remember.

    That dress is so pretty. I can’t wait to see it on Emily. I’m feeling like an inadequate mom/wife. I think I need to learn to craft/create something. The onesies that you made with a stencil look doable…do you give lessons? :-)

    Jenn, you are so not inadequate! You have a job AND a baby AND a house to look after. I feel tired just thinking about it! Anyway, I would love to teach you how to do the stencils. I’m just trying to get the process perfected before I go spreading bad ideas or something. :)

    t- You’re welcome! It is a beautiful wrap.

    Nicole- Thanks for visiting, and thanks for the lovely compliments! That’s one of the most encouraging things I’ve ever heard on here. :)
