I knit a mini version of my Grandfather’s house that he built in Newfoundland.

It doesn’t have every single room, but it is designed to look like a version of it that appears in a book I wrote about spending summers with him and contains things that reflect all of the lovely activities we did together: knitting, reading, baking fresh bread, and spending afternoons drinking cups of tea.

We often had lobster for supper and, yes, the house even has a tiny crustacean and pot!

Let’s take a peek!

I designed the outside so that it looks like the one inside the jacket of the book :)

The roof comes off to reveal the inside…

The kitchen is where we probably spend the most time!

Baking fresh bread…

Drinking cups of tea…

And sometimes even having a lobster boil for supper!

Here’s the living room…

Where we finish most days, sitting in his chair, knitting or reading, by the light of a lantern.

Here’s how it all comes together!
