Crazy for Cables

I am crazy for this pattern! I love doing cables. I finished this during some late night can't sleep watching movies! Love the color. Vanna White yarn so nice and soft! Of course Its acrylic! Hate wool!

The end of a creative weekend

Did not get much house cleaning done this weekend. My creative juices were flowing so, here Millie is modeling a slouchy hat and neckwarmer. Both done in Woolease thick and quick by Lion Brand yarn. There was a marathon on of Criminal minds one of my very favorite shows, and I wont waste time with TV unless I am doing something. I did get yard work done though so thats something!

Late night knit

Finished the pumpkin hat. Not my favorite item I have ever done. I will try again. It became so difficult when the hat got smaller to manipulate the four needles. I need to investigate how to finish off with four needles and not drop any stitches.

I got the blues shawl!

Completed shawl! I needed to finish this it was in my wip pile and it is a gift for my girl who will be home soon, yea I know its about 100 degrees but she will get use of it this winter. She has been asking for a shawl. I hope she likes it! The pattern is called eva's shawl, super quick and super easy! I wish I knew how to add a link. I have tried many times and just cannot figure it out!

Pumpkin hat!

This is what I was working on during the long drive to TC. I have tried various times to knit in the round. I just could not figure it out. Well low and behold I found directions on U TUBE of all places. And I finally got it! YEA ME! I love doing it!

Family Day September

Wow! Great day! And yes, I look like I am in pain. I have not been on a horse in many years. And my horse Wiskey, liked to gallop, I like to gently trot, she had other ideas!

It's fall Y'all!

Yea! I know its gunna be 90 here today. But I am in the Fall mood! After all this week marked the first day of fall. So I got Millie the Mannequin out to model another Cable Hat I made! Don't you love it? It is my very favorite pattern and I am planning. (God Willing) to make several for the Holidays. I have a nice stash of colorful yarns for the hats. We are going to TC this weekend to see Chelsea and I am so excited! More to come..... stay tuned....

Remember this?

Yep! Complete project. It makes
me happy to look at it.
I will be taking it to my daughter full of yarn so every time she crochets she will think of me and the love I put in this bag as a made it for her.
Tiny bumble bees are on the lining
it is so cute!

Bliss!

Enjoying my new space! First thing I am working on is tissue holders for TC. Every time we go to the services at TC, and a woman or man graduates, the tears start flowing. These are truly tears of Joy. My lazy Kitty Isis is showing off for the camera. Why cant I sleep like that? I love this extra day off! Amazing what some time off can do for the spirit!
