Next up are three samples I made for Hannah Fettig's Little Knitbot collection. She took some of her most popular designs and scaled them down for wee folk.

The yarn for these sweaters is a new one for me, The Fibre Company Meadow. It's a beautiful blend of merino, llama, silk, linen. The different fibres take in the dye at varying intensities, creating a yarn that has a lot of depth, which is a quality that The Fibre Company excels at. It's got a lovely hand: drapey, heathery, shimmery, with a touch of rustic. And oh, the colours!
(Thank you Hannah for letting me knit for you and use your photos!)

So cute! Those little sweaters are darling! I bet they were fun to knit. The Fibre Company let me knit a sample one of their new shawls in Meadow and I fell in love. I need to get some for myself.

Oh these are adorable, I find it difficult to find patterns ( sorry for the repetition) for little girls that don't involve unnecessary frills or strange shapes.

You HAVE been busy! I love these mini versions, I'm knitting one of those for myself as it happens, although mine will be a little larger!!
Loving your Roman photos too, we were there last summer. It's an amazing city, that's for sure.

Oh my gosh, the cuteness!! A genius idea to scale down the sizes for girls. The Wispy is my favorite on that adorable little girl. She looks a bit like Suri Cruise.

Hello there nicole, I just read your message over on lori's blog and had to come over and see your blog. I'm so glad that I did. It's really beautiful.
I love your Italian photographs...our favourite country besides England where we live.
I'm so pleased to find your lovely space.
