You've Got Me In Stitches: Anita's Nightcap

Anita's Nightcap

This was such a joy to make. An 1890's traditional nightcap knit in pink cotton. If I was to keep in tradition, it should have been made with an unbleached cotton yarn. Wanted to make this more feminine for my dear friend Anita.

Welcome!

Being self-employed eats up a lot of time and energy, and being a Holistic Nutritional Consultant means I have to look after myself physically and emotionally. I'm always striving to bring more balance to my life. I created this blog to help make that happen. My Dad taught me to knit and play the accordion when I was ten years old - and although instructions for both were very basic, and my first few projects and tunes were pretty scarey, I was inspired to practice and improve - well... with the knitting anyway. I'm always up for a challenge and over the years I've knit everything from mittens and socks, to detailed sweaters and lace. Knitting, more so than accordion music gives me such a sense of calm. It's truly meditative for me. Thank you Dad!
