Am on my second pair gave the first pair to my other granddaugther. We had Knit in today at Vickies and she had everything red for Valentines Day.A good time was had by all and we all had our projects with us to work on . Of course the weather was cold and then it started to snow and rain so it was time to head for home. I hope it gets warmer over the next weekend like they said.
Are Knitting Guild meet Thursday night at our new meeting place and it was very nice .The Georgian Place. Vickie showed us how to knit with beads because some of the Ladies are starting some new projects. I found it very interesting and plan on doing a shawl with beads. We also are making laprobes,Caps for kids and Birthright and hats for cancer patients. We are a small group but get a lot done and have a good time doing it Happy Knitting to all

My Teddy Bear Friends & sweaters

Our Guild had a belated Christmas Party last week since we don't meet in Dec. The weather was;t the greatest but we still had a good turn out with 17 members there and three ladies who couldn't make it but then we had a good meal at Crazy Alices . Afterwards three ladies had games and prizes which we played. And then we exchanged gifts and had show and tell of our gifts. A good time was had by all which we always do at our get togethers.

I finished my fingerless gloves and started another pair. Also finished my Pillow which I hope to have a picture the next time.I also finished my lacey cowl. Now my next project is my socks plus a few new surprises. The weather is bad so I get more knitting done, Happy Knitting to all.

Eyelet Hats

Hi, Everybody hope you all had a nice Christmas and are getting ready for a Happy New Year. Its hard to believe another year has passed so quickly. Have you ever thought of how many projects you got done in the pass year and how many you are planning on doing this year ? Think about it sometime.! ! That would be interesting to take a poll sometime. I am working on fingerless gloves and a few different cowls now for the rest of the winter. With another snow storm coming I guess we will all get a lot of Knitting done again. These are my hats I did for Christmas Presents. Now I have a request for a Afghan from my granddaughter because she outgrow her other one. So there is a project to start the new year out and many more to follow I"m sure ! ! Happy New Year nannyjean

Still Booming

I finally got my computer up and running which meant a new one which my son hooked up over the weekend.This picture was taken Thanksgiving weekend and is covered with snow now but still blooming. Since the weather has been bad I got a few new projects going like 2 pair of socks, a pair of fingerless gloves and a skull hat for a boy and a baby blanklet. We do get a lot of knitting done when we can't run right ! ! plus it is time to get the baking done for Christmas. I baked my FruitCakes last week plus dropped raison and nut cookies and going to do Sandtarts tomorrow. We are getting another storm this week so that means a lot more happy KNITTING.

Yarn Cupcakes

I haven't blogged for about a month because my Computer has been down off and on. My granddaughter made these cupcakes for our Workshop that we had in October from 9 to 5 with Melissa Leapman. She taught Celtic Cables which was very interesting and enjoyed by all. Some of the ladies got her new book Continuous Cables. She had a lot of sweaters with her cables and she modeled them all.We had a group of 30 plus attending the 2 classes , one in the morning and one in the afternoon . With a light lunch at noon. Everybody had a enjoyable day of knitting and learning and visiting with friends. I also think Melissa had a good time as well especialy when Tammy and the girls had the aution. Fun for all.
