Toddler Dress
From the Blog ummeyusuf The finished sweater (in this case, I use the term loosely to include all types of clothing) for the month of May, is the dress for my youngest daughter that I started last October. It was a good thing that I cast on for a size bigger than her size at the time, seeing how long it took me to finish it.

It got boring and went into time-out, at the end of last year. But I got it out a couple of weeks ago and knit the remaining few inches on the skirt. From then on, it went relatively fast, and I am happy to have it finished. Now that I have no project on the needles, I have been dealing withpakistanblogs.blogspot.comRead Full Post

However, it is more than that. *Water in the Wilderness* is a tour de force across the cultures of Makran, through the westerpakistanblogs.blogspot.comRead Full Post
