Skillfully Wrought: Bramble Leaves for Baby

Skillfully Wrought

Psalm 139:15 says, "My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth."(NKJV) The phrase "skillfully wrought" means "(1)to variegate, mix colours, (b)to be skilfully wrought or woven". It amazes and humbles me to know that God used such creativity to fashion each us! Not only that, but because we were created in His image we have been given that same desire and ability to be creative! What a gift!

Bramble Leaves for Baby

Pattern

Wool Leaves by Jared Flood

Needles

US 8 - 5.0 mm

Yarn

Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Worsted

Bramble Heather

Started - June 14, 2013

Completed - June 24, 2013

Notes: June 14, 2013 ~ Baby is due in just one week! I wonder if I’ll be able to get this blanket done before he/she arrives! :)

Cast on 151 stitches using only one strand of worsted weight yarn and US size 9 needles. Switch to US size 8 needles. I’m following wollgut’s notes/mods.

June 15 ~ I’m worried that I won’t have enough yarn so I’m starting over with 141 stitches. This pattern is working up really fast so I’m not too frustrated. :)

Bind off using US size 10 needles and Suspended Bind-off.

About Me

Name: Leah

Location: Hammond, New York, United States

My husband, Scott, and I have been married for 12 years. We have five precious children so far, 3 sons and 2 daughters here on earth! We are praying for many more baby blessings! My husband works with his parents on our organic dairy farm. We also raise many other farm animals and grow most of our own food. I began teaching myself to knit in August of 2007. I started with dishcloths and quickly moved on to more challenging projects. I hope to learn how to spin very soon! In mid-November of 2010 I opened an Etsy shop to sell knitting and fiber arts supplies. I'm excited to see what the future holds!
