showing off…
…my progress on Maddy’s mini-Vahtralehed, and my new haircut, too:
I really need to come up with a better name than “mini-Vahtralehed” for this cardigan. I should look up what “sapling” is in Estonian – that’d probably be a cute name for a diminutive version of Vahtralehed, yeah?
Knitting a baby sweater at 6sts/inch turns out to be about like knitting a grown-up (me-sized) sweater at my usual 4.5 or 4sts/inch. Considering how little knitting time I can eke out of a day these days, I’m making good progress, but oy, Rhinebeck is feeling awfully close! And I’d like to make Maddy a new hat and mittens before then, too, in case it’s cold enough to warrant them. Oh, knitting time, I wish I had more of you.

Your hair looks adorable! The sweater will be cute, too.
I love your hair!
Thank you, Phoe! I love it, too :)

Cute haircut! Your wip is pretty cute too. : )
In Estonian you’d call miniature version of maple leaves Vahtralehekesed.
Thank you! Someday, I want to actually learn to speak Estonian, instead of just learning a word here and there.
