Nancy, it's nice to "hear" you so positive on handmades. It seems you have gotten so you switch effortlessly from crochet to the loom to knitting. I would probably have to reset my brain!
Harmony, you reached a finish. That's a positive thing! I hope it is well-received and I'm sure it will be obvious this was a labor of love you wouldn't do for others! Best wishes for the sewing machine tuneup.
BookSaver, I'll suggest loomahat to dd20 in case she has a chance to go back to yarn arts - she wanted to, if ever there was time. This winter I needed a hat and glanced through the 3 I inherited from my dear aunt. I felt like Goldilocks with the 3 hats. A truly beautiful one someone had made was of a harsh yarn and tightly done - hmmmm. Another was made like a pretty tam or beret but left ears unloved! A loosely woven but full one was soft and best and now I remember she loved it.
I had a thing to tell you all especially, but it depends on a photo to make you smile at it, so I will wait. We are temporarily (hopefully just a day or two) without photo posting on the boards.
