FINALLY the sweater arrived. In November I was try FINALLY the sweater arrived. In November I was trying madly to finish all the billions of videos for Affiknity while i finished knitting up the Affiknity Jr for @francescarnyc adorable daughter. It all took way longer than I expected but on Nov 29, I finally packed it up and shipped it 1 day priority express. I then checked the tracking daily while my package settled somewhere (with millions of other people's packages) in limbo. On Dec 24 I got a simple message from my friend. "It's here. It's a Christmas miracle". Yep, 26 days later, my 1 day priority package arrived. But how adorable do these two look in their Affiknity Jr cardi and pullover??⁠⠀

Don't forget you can still grab it on sale ($8 off) until Jan 24. Click on the link in the profile or the pic for more info.⁠⠀

I had to share the adorableness of my hubby. I was I had to share the adorableness of my hubby. I was going through photos, cleaning up my pattern files, and came across these. When you are in the woods with your hubby with no ability to do a photoshoot with anyone since you're in the middle of a pandemic, you have no choice but to put the camera on a tripod and hold on to a remote. I was snapping away when David got a little bored of posing. Flip through the pictures quickly and it's like a little movie. A little adorable movie.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Remember that you can still grab Affiknity on sale until Jan 24. New knitters are casting on every day. Today is our last Affiknity knit group. I'm loving seeing both the finished sweaters and the new cast ons happening at the same time.⁠⠀
