I got a good chuckle out of the hat—thank you for sharing that! The scarf is precious, as is your farm and family. Thanks for taking care of the bees, I’m sorry some didn’t make it. You do SO much and know so much! It’s impressive, and I love learning all of the things you share. Much love and respect,

Meg

Right? I was so excited to have him try it and immediately was like, oh, I have made a big (literally) mistake.

Aww what a kind thing to say. Farming is so humbling, there is so much I still don't know, but I love the way it forces you to keep learning every day.

That scarf is adorable! Also, I had the same experience with a hat I knit for my father in law for Christmas, whoops!

I hope you’re having a lovely holiday season!

I am so glad I am not the only one who can't get hat sizing right! I also totally messed up the sizing for Farm Baby's newborn cap, but I blamed the unpredictability of newborn head size versus my not great sizing skills...perhaps I'm the problem, though?

I think it’s fair to blame the unpredictability of all heads everywhere!

I save your letters for rough days - they are ALWAYS a treat and a reminder that there is joy in the world, even amidst the grief. Happy Holidays to Farm Fam and all your furred and feathered and buzzy kin.
