I do really love pie. Especially cherry pie with tart/sweet cherries and flaky crust. Oh boy! So when I saw this cute little pattern (All Your Pie Tape Measure) it caught my eye. I whipped up these two little ditties yesterday afternoon.
My husband, who is usually very supportive of my knitting habit, was speechless. He looked at these and was afraid to say anything. The look on his face told the story. He was either thinking, “She has WAY too much time on her hands (so why is the house such a mess?),” or, “She has finally gone completely over the deep end!”
It IS a compulsion that cannot be denied. What can I say?
PS in response to Pam’s question: My “knit” version really did not have a lot of knitting. Just the bottom crust. I crocheted the cherry filling because I wanted more texture and crocheted the fluting around the top of the crust. The lattice for both versions were standard i-cord.
