Gift Knitting

I went to visit my former hometown, Newman, this weekend where my cousin Tura and his family still live. I didn't get a chance to visit during Easter, so this was a long needed trip. I had bought a cute brown/biege short outfit formy Godson Andrew, which I might get to see him in next weekend! For my little couse Alyssa, I decided to knit her a headband late Friday night, about 10 p.m. I quickly searched Ravelry for a child's headband pattern, and went with Nora. I found some real pretty "Little Lovely" Malabrigo Chunky in my stash, and it was perfect! I had to adjust my needle size since the pattern isn't knitted with chunky weight yarn. I went with a US3 needle, and it worked out perfect. I had it finished by the time we got to the house the morning on Saturday.

I don't want to say too much about this because it's a surprise, but I'm really excited to get to the finishing portion, it will really take shape then.

Hope everyone had a good weekend!
