There I
was on Christmas Eve day, seaming up the ‘cold/bold shoulder’ top that I made
for Rhiana, which she requested a few weeks back – I still hadn’t gotten around
to making her that cardi for back-to-school – OMG! I have never been this
disorganized or am I turning into a procrastinator?
In my defense, although the
actual knitting of this top is quite quick, I have been pattern-writing every
step of the way. I’ve had so many requests at seminars for this design that I figured
if I were making one for her, I may as well write it up for everyone at the
same time and this would be my test garment.
If you want to see the backstory,

On Boxing Day, while I
was giving it a final steam so I could get her photo in it before she went
home, Rhiana was looking through a copy of Knitwords #53 – Her beautiful mom,
Agnieszka was the cover girl and Rhiana and her brother Nathan were also there –
he remembers but she doesn’t as she was only 4 years old back in 2010I!
Anyway,
my girl was happy with it. She put it on, threw a few poses and said we
could do a photoshoot, just like in the magazine days! After admiring herself in the mirror, she declared 'I really like this!' She always was a great, little model!
Happy
Holidays, all the best to you and yours for 2018, and may all your knitting
projects turn out this nice!
