Adding Some Flair


Do not ask me what in the world I am looking at.  I handed Mr. B (eldest native) my camera and told him to take a bunch of pictures.  Grandma wants to see the sweater I've finally finished knitting!  I told him not to worry about my head.  I'd be cutting it off.  Just needed photos of the sweater.


Saw the photos and had to laugh.  Leaving the head and face.  Just out of the shower.  Hair thrown up into an awesome ponytail so it doesn't cover the sweater.  No make up.  There ya go folks!  Me.  In the raw.  You can thank me later.


P.S.  At least I did brush my teeth for the occasion.  You're welcome!

Pattern is from BERGERE de France Ref# 160.17
Yarn is:  BERGERE de France Pyramide L7642

    Serious talent there, Rachel. The baby hat you made me for Benson is still a treasure, even though we can't stretch it to fit over his head anymore. You are amazing. And beautiful.

      Thank you Gerb! Save the hat for a grand baby. ;)

      P.S. Time for a birthday lunch date again.

    This is fabulous!- you *and* the sweater. And if I looked that amazing without makeup and hair done (hee hee, my hair is NEVER done), then I'd be making regular appearances in photos. I'd be photo-bombing at every opportunity.

    Now, that sweater, THAT SWEATER! You are a master knitter!

      Photo 'bombing' is the key word here. The after affects after the bomb was dropped. Yikes! I scare the natives. Daily. Multiple times. It's my job and I take it seriously.

      Thank you for your kind words.

      Nope. I don't believe it. Not if this is evidence of you just thrown together. :-)
