Lambs and gloves and scarves- oh my!

This week has been filled with new knitting projects!  It's been great to get back on the needles and knit some new and exciting projects.  First up, a pair of gloves commissioned from a friend for a friend up in Buffalo.  It's probably still cold up there!

Next up is a project I was asked to do awhile ago, but only now have found time to complete it.  This little lamb definitely tested my knitting skills, but I think she came out really cute!


Last up is a skinny scarf that I've been meaning to make awhile, but the weather this week was just calling for it!  I honestly feel naked without a scarf, but it's been a little too warm to wear one of my nice big ones.  This skinny scarf features a 2x2 rib, and it about 6 ft long.  It was a breeze to make too!  I'm definitely going to make more!

Easter brunch

I'm not a religious person in the least, so Easter isn't a big deal to me, but I wanted to do something special on this beautiful Sunday. We decided to head over to Iron Gate over on Washington Ave for some brunch, and it was delicious! I had only ever been there for sandwiches, but their brunch was just as amazing- I'll definitely make a trip back sometime soon.





Yes! A beautiful day, and some pretty christmas lights!





2 cups of coffee please!





Nothing says Sunday brunch like a mimosa. Only problem- I wish it was larger!





I opted for a healthy breakfast of fruit, yogurt, and granola- yum!





Matt had an amazing omlet with the best homefries I've ever had. They tasted just like French fries that you get at the fair.





Aaaand here I am sporting a FriendlyBrown original striped summer scarf.

FriendlyBrown wish list...

In between making projects for friends, family, and customers, I always like to keep a list of patterns and ideas for items that I'd like to make for myself. My wishlist right now includes:

Lightweight scarf in tan or gray as my essential spring accessory
Slouchy hat for spring
Knitted bag for groceries
Knitted change purse
A cute spring shrug

I'll let you know what I decide to start first!
