Guess what?!

My check FINALLY arrived today! I danced all the way home from the mailbox! I called my mom and arranged to meet her to go washer/dryer shopping after I cashed the check! Then I realized. It’s Saturday. The bank is closed until Monday.
Damn it!!!!!!!

Done and done!

Boy am I loving this knitting-for-myself thing! I finshed another ballband dishcloth (using size 8 needles this time, and doing less repeats than the pattern calls for) and a new potholder. I’ve now got quite the collection of funky kitchenware!

Did I ever tell you about the time The Jerk took my just-finished hand knit dishcloth (right [...]

The Stash Inspector Strikes Again!

Hee hee.
While uploading pics of my FO’s to Ravelry, I realized there were several things I never shared on my blog! We’ll start with Natalie’s skirt, I made it for her to wear to Thanksgiving last year (I think I caught her when she was about to sneeze or something! She wore a nicer shirt [...]

Sophie & more

My finished Sophie bag-

I picked up some sky blue cotton and sewed a lining in by hand, and I rather like it. The Sophie pattern is a lot of fun to knit, and I see myself casting on at least one more for a Christmas present this year! Only thing that bothers me is the [...]

Finished!

I love it! The photo isn’t showing the true colors, the colors are more mint and brown than aqua and brown. Really makes me think of mint chocolate chip ice cream when I see it! Lynlee, MDK is Mason-Dixon Knitting, one of the most fabulous knitting books! Now to cast on another. I’m thinking purple [...]

WIP Wednesday

I have several projects going, most recently another Ballband dishcloth from MDK

I love this pattern! I’m making this one for myself, and have plans for about a half dozen more. I’m also browsing my pattern books, I found out today that my new cousin-in-law has made her appearance. Tiny little 5 pounder that she is! [...]

Weekend plans

First off, thanks to everyone for the comments and emails regarding Jack. My Mama instinct tells me he is just fine, and will grow when he feels like it! In the meantime, it’s been great fun for people to see him walking, and think he’s 6 months old *lol*
I’ve finished knitting the Sophie [...]

You’ve come a long way sweetheart!

The start of the school year, 2006

I can’t believe the end of the school year has arrived so quickly. Seems like only yesterday I was dropping Gabe off for the very first time, with his brand new lunch box and his special Star Wars shirt that he had been saving for this very day. He [...]
