Reason to Finish

In Fall 2019, arguably one of the busiest in my life, I ran to the yarn store with the false hope that I would have time to knit three children a sweater for Christmas. I did make a good start, but alas, none of the sweaters made it to the finish line before the holiday. The first vest was finished in June of 2020 and barely fit its recipient. By that time, it was obvious to me that this sweater was also going to be too small for the next intended boy. So I let the WIP molder in the closet.

Fast forward to this past summer, when the same family announced the arrival of yet another boy, Nephew #10. The sweater was finished in two afternoons of excitement! He was born on September 21, and should be getting his sweater today, just in time to dress up as a cosy little pumpkin!


And I am quite aware that I still owe Nephew #9 AND Niece #8 a little sweater. They will be a medium sized sweaters by the time I finish…

Enjoy Fall and stay toasty!
