Keep Calm Craft On {crafting on}

The act of creating, in one form or another, preserves my sanity amongst the chaos of life. This explains why I always have more than one project going at a time as well as why my housework tends to fall behind. I enjoy seeing what others are working on and keeping calm with, too. What are you creating? What is keeping you going? Snap a picture or two and share it with the rest of us by leaving your link below.

Freddie!

I am about 90% done with Little L's birthday sweater. I just need to rip out the button band and redo it. I thought I wanted the buttons to go up higher on the sweater but then upon finishing it, I realized it didn't work out right. To avoid any frustration with the sweater I thought it best to walk away and pick up another birthday knit - Little L's very own Freddie from Freddie's Blanket. I hope I can finish it by his birthday! I had the hardest time finding the suggested yarn but thankfully Joanna came to my rescue and pointed me in the right direction.

Freddie looks lovely. . . Curious to see the final result!
What a lovely knit, hope you get it made in time. Love the picture of your yarn :)
How fun! I keep meaning to buy the Slate Falls books for my kids. I think Freddie would be my personal favorite.

Beautiful yarn. Looking forward to see the little platypus :)
Thanks for hosting!
99% done sounds like done completely to me. Can't wait to see it all finished up :)
What kind of wool do you use for Freddie ?

It's a cotton/wool blend from Brown Sheep called Serendipity.
I've been wanting to get the phoebe book and patterns for a long time for my girls but am not sure how much they will like it...such a cute looking books though!
You've totally inspired me to make a Freddie for my own little birthday boy! Where did you end up finding the yarn?
