kard kraft

'tis the season to be tardy with everything holiday. but it's never too late to send a card, right? here's a sampling of the latest, to be mailed this year, i hope.

Merry Christmas Brenna

As they say, better late than never....did Confucius say that??


Many of you know my friend Brenna and that she loves to rock the poncho. So last Christmas (366 days ago!) I proclaimed that I would knit her one. I had the best intentions to finish it in January but here we are, one year later and B. has no hand knit poncho from Amy's Sweatshop to speak of.


Well, good things come to those who wait...I think Confucius really did say that.


Brenna, your poncho isn't complete but gosh darn, it's close! Above is a pic of panel one and panel two is about half way finished. It's mega warm, seriously. I use the finished panel as a lap blanket. The knit rose idea comes from Brenna's boots. She wears these cute brown suede boots with flowers embroidered on the sides. The rose in the pic is rose prototype #2. I like it better than rose prototype #1. Rose prototype #3 is going to be felted...haven't started it yet.


Brenna, I hope you like it and Merry Poncho Christmas!


xo,


Amy
