Weekend Rewind:

Saturday dawned bright and early for me and the coffee wasn't brewing fast enough.
I had a casserole to make before leaving the house at 7:15 to drive Gabby down for her biannual senior wellness, bloodwork, and general look over. Her pain level of course is always top if the list, and while the pills are helping, she could use a little more. So we started a cold laser therapy.
I think she likes the safety goggles.

I like that after the first treatment I can already tell a difference.

After the vet, which took two hours, I attached the ribbon to this bonnet I knit two years ago, packaged up Kyle's Seahawk Socks, grabbed the casserole, hopped back in my wagon and was off to wander the back roads of Snohomish.

Race season is right around the corner and I needed to not only deliver knit goods I had race parts to deliver.

Then there was my teammate from the 3Day's baby shower! Yay!! I promise your blanket will be done before BBKII arrives!

THEN....

We topped the night with a hockey game!

Sunday was all about the Seahawks and as you can see we broke out the champagne and crystal to toast the Seahawks first SuperBowl win!!

Isn't LOL adorable in her bonnet?
K loved his socks, they were slippery and he made quick work sliding all over the hallway I'm told!

More details about the bonnet and socks tomorrow! I'm exhausted just thinking about Saturday all over again!

The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list. I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused. It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up. Currently in the sidelines to be finished 1. Ledge Trail Vest 2. Twiggy for me 3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night! this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin. On the List: 1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift 2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil. 3. Great White Shart Shark 4. Bosco - for me 5. Stillhouse Vest - for me 6. Woodsy - for me 7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts. 8. Gifts for friends... and on and on and on If you...

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...
