A fruitful weekend

Published on Sunday October 2nd, 2005

It was a weekend for knitted gifts.

Here’s baby Alex, quite well grown for his three-and-a-half months, sporting his new footwear. I’m calling these moonbooties for their decided resemblance to ’70s moonboots. But they stay on beautifully, and they’ll fit the little fellow for at least another month or two. Apparently even the doctors remarked on his large feet when he was born!

And here’s Marika in her clapotis:

May it keep her warm through many hours of studying at the barbarously air-conditioned NYU library!

    I already loved your gifts and it’s great to see them being worn by their recipients. Alex is so cute and looks dashing with his moonbooties. 🙂 And I have to say that clapotis is gorgeous on Marika. Well done!

    Alex is certainly a big boy! Three and a half months. Wow. Those booties are just darling. Great job, Sarah.

    And the Clap came out perfect. So pretty.

    I spent many many many days and nights studying at the NYU library. How much better I would’ve learned had I been wrapped in such a gorgeous knit!

    Thanks for stopping by today!
