The joy of anticipation of your child standing next to the table while you’re making the cheesecake. Precious ❤. And I might have to steal your tessellated color combination 😂. I’m coming down with a cold myself now so I feel your pain, I hope you and your daughter get well soon.

The brown buttons you chose are perfect for your cardigan Kaci! Also, the cheesecake- yum!! I have a recipe for a caramel sauce topped one, made with Nilla wafers- so delish! Good job tackling your WIPS! Proud of you!

Oh Kaci, I hope you and your daughter feel better soon. You and your family have had a lot of sickness this winter, as many families with young ones have had. Ugh! I am sending you a big hug and wellness wishes. Also, beautiful knits! I also love that you are focusing on wips this year. Best of luck and knit on my friend!

And of course your Tessellated Cardigan looks stunning! 😊

Super color choices Kaci!! Also FYI try Junction Mill (VT) color-changing yarn called Making Tracks. It looks yummy. (I’m always looking for alternatives to the lovely but pricey Spincycle-one of my LYSs.). 😉

Hi Kaci, I hope that you didn’t end up with a bad bout of the flu! That tessellated cardigan is so stunning and I just LOVE the colors. I also really loved that piano piece that used as background while you were knitting on it. That had to be a French composer, am I right? Debussy is my favorite. Thank you for another enjoyable podcast and be well! ❤

I hope your daughter feels better soon and you don't get too sick. I just got over it a week ago. How is your dad doing? Love the colors you have chosen. Do you think you could use your Tessalated cardigan for your family portrait? It looks so nice on you and I think the color would work with the palette you spoke about last week. Have a good week❤
