What is up with me?

So if your looking for my post it's on the other knitting blog. I never post there and I didn't mean to this time but oh well. The pictures suck but it's something. That's what I get for trying to blog and talk on the phone and play school with my 4 year old.......help.

Thanks for looking.....

And you call yourself a knitter....

Okay so I haven't posted in months but that doesn't mean that I haven't been knitting cause I have......really I swear. It seems as if every time I do well on one thing I lag severely elsewhere. I have been working on my other blog and other such writing so much that I haven't posted anything. That will change. Starting Friday. Come back Friday and see what I've been doing......don't stop by to early cause that would be rude and they're probably won't be anything up yet. :}

Nonsense

This has nothing to do with anything at all. I just think this commercial is freaking funny as all get out. I feel like they made it for me or something. I can'y stand to see a stain on someone's shirt and if it's on mine then that's all can think about.

Gettin' my Groove Back

I can't believe I haven't posted anything this year. I guess with the move and all I've just been so busy. I also can't believe I didn't knit anything on the 30+ hour ride here. I really didn't feel like it. I stared the blanket but felt like I needed to pay attention to much in order to do it well. My attention span seemed to be as short as the kids while we were in the car. Since I've settled in a bit I have finished a few things. I did a pretty scarf for Melissa in pink and brown. I just love that color combo. It' one of if not my favorite. I want to make Shy a blanket in those same colors. I used Paton's Nuance in cedar rose and a plain brown worsted weight yarn and knitted in a K2 P2 pattern. You can't see the ridges so I could have just did a simple stockinette stitch. Oh well we live and learn I guess.

This is it finished. I kind of want one for myself. I have enough left over to make a ear warmer though.

I also finished a scarf for Tamika in black and grey mohair. I wished to make it a bit longer but I ran out of yarn. I wasn't about to pay full price at Michael's for that same yarn I purchased at Wal-mart for like 3 dollars. She said it was fine at the length I showed her anyway. I used 2 skeins together in midnight mohair by Lionbrand for this one. I also have been working on some washcloths and dish cloths for the house. They don't look so hot but I will keep at it.

If not for Christmas by New Years Night.


Didn't do much yesterday, I tried watching a couple episodes of Psych but the video kept freezing and I would have to start my computer all over. That got old after the second time. But, I did get started on my Mommy Pam's late Christmas scarf. It's done now but I wish it was a bit longer. I'm out of yarn funds so this will have to do. I picked up a couple skeins of sugar and cream cotton for washcloths. They will look nice in the new house. I also got some cream colored boucle to weave into the red of the never ending shawl. Michael's is having a sale on all things knitting


The hubby decided he wants a log cabin blanket in black, white and grey. So I'm looking into getting that on the needles soon. I first need to pick a yarn, maybe the Shetland chunky that I used for the scarf...

I wanted to use homespun just because they have a nice grey color. He didn't really like the texture of though. I love it personally. It won't be done anytime soon but I'm going to try not to drag it out too long.
