Hello again. It's me. Been trying to keep busy with things I am making. I will post some more pics. I hope all is well for everyone. We have been kind of busy here with the weather finally nice. I try to keep busy making things all the time. It is a great stress reliever and break from the same old shows on tv.

More stuff. I have been keeping my hands and hooks/needles busy

Cable and lace cloth, from a KAL on Rachel's Knitting group.

Well, the memorial was great. The day was nice and sunny. I made 80 angel pins and they were all gone, I have to make a few more for the people who didn't get one. I also need to finish the last 30 for Hospice. In the mean time I also made a Romper and hat from a pattern in the newest Crochet! magazine. I got it last Saturday and made the romper after doing a knit cloth with lace and cables from a pattern from Rachel's Knitting yahoo group. The romper was very easy and fast. I did the whole thing in one evening. So, here are some recent pictures. enjoy.

Stuff I am working on now.

Hello. I have been busy all week. Don's father passed away last Friday morning and I am making angel pins for hospice staff and also some red/white/blue ones for the Memorial at Fort Logan this Tuesday March 30th. I also made a few cloths and will be posting them as well. I am super sad and miss my father in law alot. He was such a nice guy and so funny as well. I can't believe he has been gone for a week. Sorry for all the sad things. I will post pics. The snowman is from Rachel's Knit Group on yahoo, and the angels are from web archive. The Christmas Story cloth is available on Kris Knits site.

My first Knit shawl.

I was asked to make this shawl by a friend who has thyroid cancer. It was a quick pattern off the Lionbrand site, and I did it in about 2 days. I chose the color way of Fiesta, and this is the result. Of course it is super soft, and my doggie is a ham and wanted to be in the pics.

What I have been working on the last while

Hello. I just thought I would add some pics of things I have been working on. Right now on the needles I have a shawl for a dear friend. She asked if I could make it, and I am actually having a great time working on my first knit shawl. It will be done either later today or tomorrow. I am going to Red Lobster for dinner tonight with Don, as it is my Birthday. UGG, getting old sucks. But I need to have my Lobster dinner. Let me add some pics and stuff I have done so I can get ready to go and work more on this shawl. The slipper sox are for a friend, and the washcloths are from a KAL on Rachel's Knitting and another group.

Today in the life

well, I am in the process of a baby blanket that I am knitting, one that I am crocheting and also knitting some kitchen stuff. I did a hanging towel with matching dishcloth and tribbles, and also working on a mystery cloth too. I am bummed out as Don's dad is really confused, but the doc decided today that it is the pain patches. So they took one off and are going to do the same with the other since he doesn't seem to be in so much pain like before. I have to get some things mailed as my niece is stalking the mailperson waiting for her jacket to come. It is still here, but I think it will go out tomorrow as I have to get up to take the car so that Travis can get to school. They have one of those late starts again. i wish they would of had those back in the day when I was in school.
