Bohemian Crochet Shawl Progress

This job was absolutely addictive, I finished my shawl in five days! After doing one row, I could not 
resist to crochet a second one to see what would be the effect of the new color... and so on and so forth!
I am so rewarded by the result, I love it. The problem is that I have not enough yarn for all the 
fringes. I am not sure yet if I will order some more yarns or I leave it as it is without the fringes.
The style would be completely different : more "bohemian" style with the fringes...

Baby Knitted Cardigan and Double 4 Patch Progress

After I finished my shawl, I started knitting a little cardigan for my grandson. I found the pattern in a vintage catalogue from my mother. I already used several patterns from this catalogue for my own children about 35 years ago. I love to knit cable stitch, it's so easy and gives an impressive result. The yarn is baby alpaga.

Most of the time I knit very early in the morning together with drinking my tea. Then comes coffee time and quilting... well, in between a little housework! 

I am finishing the last six blocks of my Double Four Patch top. After this, I will prepare the tutorial as promised!
