Baby in A Cashmere Hat

| | Comments (9)

Z is not a baby who forgets to say thank you for special gifts. And this week she received a very special gift from a very special friend.

The very lovely hat that Z is wearing is made out of cashmere, hand dyed by Posh yarns.

But even nicer, it was hand knit by Emma, my blog neighbor and fibery trading partner extraordinaire.

It arrived this week, along with those two sweet softies, and came as a complete surprise. Z, of course, had to try it on. The hat is still a little big, Z and her mom think it will be perfect for when it really starts to get chilly.

Thank you so much, Emma! Z and I are both touched deeply by your beautiful, sweet and thoughtful gift! And we especially like the softie with the crinkly ears. Z just loves the sounds it makes -- and I like the fact that she has some nice handmade toys that don't have an iota of plastic anywhere!

Z is rather cute. And those giant eyes bespeak intelligence, I think.

Wicked cute! Love that stained glass scarf. Wish I knew how to knit when I was nursing... I read a LOT of books! Had days like you described... but the idea of preparing formula, well, it just seemed like more work! You should do it for as long as it is good for you, because if it gets really bad for you, that can't be good for Z. (This coming from someone who nursed for what some would consider too long-2.5 years). Then I cut him off, cold turkey (it was just comfort at that point). Left him w/ dh, went away for a few days. First thing kiddo says on seeing me? Nurse? Sorry, not anymore. Can I just kiss them? Ok. Next day he had to touch them. Had to look at them for a few days, then he was over it!
