Piper and her family

Some relatives of my dad have just adopted their daughter from China. Here is a link to the blog about their journey.

Felted slippers

My mom sews, my sister does needlework, and I knit. We found a shop to please us all, Always in Stitches in Noblesville, IN. Quilting seems to be their primary focus. The yarn department isn't as extensive as some LYSs, but there is a nice variety of better yarns and equipment--so much nicer and more pleasant than Big Box Crafts.
I needed some Cascade 220 and 10.5 wooden double points. The staff was patient when we walked in 5 minutes before closing. Next time I'm in town we'll plan ahead so we can stay longer and browse.

I used my yarn and needles to finish these slippers for my sister. I made these with the Fashionably Late KAL.
