It's the Sunday after Thanksgiving... Can't help but think back to this day last year. Sigh... Well, one picture says it all & it's not even staged! Nunu is snoozing while I'm crafting some wool roving angels right next to her with my feet under the warm blanket. It's c-c-cold. They are for two ornament swaps I signed up for as well as a Ravelry Secret Elf kinda thing. I have always loved making them. It's almost like each one has a unique personality of sorts. She's a pacifier & thumb-sucking kinda girl. I was reluctant about the pacifier, but given that she spends mornings away from me I thought she needs somethin'. She has also found her thumb, though. The bonnet was an experiment. I love the green Koigu, but a bonnet is probably best worked using a solid color. It looks a bit like one of those British lawyer wigs - in green. Working on one more thing, which will need to remain a surprise for now... Happy Sunday!

Sweet is the baby's sleep!!
Love the picture of Nuriel. Her hat and quilt look some warm and snuggly.I have knitted some, but very little. I have signed up to send some small things for the ChinaKidz program. The hat would be a nice warm addition.I may try one for my China baby.I hear winter is really cold there.
Aren't they gorgeous when they're asleep? I love their relaxed little faces. Happy crafting.
Beautiful photo of a beautiful girl. Love the bonnet, are you going to release the pattern (hint, hint), as I think it is adorable :-)
The bonnet is sweet, and I love those angels. We're making some here for our tree.
The pattern isn't my own. I modified this one: http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/en/visoppskrift.php?d_nr=b11&d_id=15&lang=en
I did a decrease in the round while keeping the lace panels (rather than working a flap) & added the ties rather than knitting a border with loops.
Nu-Nu is just gorgeous.
gentle hugs
I like the bonnet . . it is 1,000 times better looking than those British Lawyer wigs!
