Do you remember Easter bonnets, patent leather shoes, chocolate
bunnies? I do. Easter meant a long mass, new clothes, a huge Easter dinner,
the promise of spring flowers. I remember well the blessings of a 40's childhood.
My neighbor came a few days ago with an Easter basket filled with candy.
The chocolate treasures dot the photo of the Easter bonnet I
knit for a yet unnamed baby.
The hat is from a pattern by Maryna Shevchenko
at www.knitca.com . I knit the newborn size and used
Simply Soft a worsted weight yarn.
The pattern is called "Snowflake." I finished it in a day
in the ninety degree heat while the preparations to return
to New York swirled around me.
