Reading While Knitting

Nothing complicated; nothing too exciting, but yes, I do knit while I read. As well as during many other domestic activities.

A preteen child doesn't always really know what to think about her mother, except that it's not always positive:


Edginess is just a way of life around here now:


But I think in the end, it will all come together beautifully:

Both just breathtaking. I especially love the sleeves. And the smile. She has such an aura about her.

Wow, the sweater is amazing, and I love the edgings! It pales, of course, when on the beautiful girl you have there. :0)

That sweater is fabulous. T1 is beautiful.

Can I be Thing100 and hang out at your house? It seems like something fun and crazy is always going on!

What a fabulous daughter you have - she's lovely. The sweater, of course, is breathtaking as well.

Gorgeous work, on both counts.

And as for the Manilow-stuck-in-the-head thing... does that make you a Fanilow?

As others have said, beautiful on both counts. T1 has a great smile. I love the leaf edgings on the sleeves.

The sweater is gorgeous....but so is your daughter! I am sure the teen years are a challenge...I am not looking forward to them!

T1 is pretty, and so is the sweater. I keep comparing the photos of her in the green sweater and the one in the berry-stained shirt! I would like to hear about the pattern too.

You finished it! It looks gorgeous, and I love the leaf edging on the sleeves! And the daughter seems to be enjoying it too -- preteen or no, she still wears your knitting!

Lovely yarn/pattern pairing. And recipient/pattern pairing as well. Thing 1 and the sweater look lovely together!

Thing 1 and her sweater are beautiful. So you may not make a dozen this year, but you just sorta made that up, didn't you?

Amazing.
