The shops have been refilled with Knit Kits...
In the heat of the French summer I've been working on this Phildar Baby Duffel Coat, once again from the Marie Claire Idées/ Phildar book; Knitting for Babies. I must have knitted every single pattern in that book... I just realy like the classic look they have, it's never out of fashion. I did use a fashionable color instead of the usual dark blue and went for petrol. It's knit with a bacteria repellent fabric (what that does, I have no idea... except for repelling bacteria...) called Oxygene, also by Phildar. 
It's great for doing baby yoga!
I have thought long and hard before I decided to show you this picture. You see, in this blog I try to come across as a hip, young knitter. Than what the '^&*^$#%' do I do in front of a caravan (...), knitting, while Boyfriend Dear reads, in slippers with socks...
I'm going to let you in on a secret...
Practicality won the match over coolness this summer!
I'm knitting Iep an orange hat btw for him to wear when the Dutch soccerteam played. (It didn't help much...)
Meanwhile I'm embroidering Space Invaders... That's cool....
right?
