and so then I thought..................

My mind is wandering today....more so than usual and the goods I usually use to rein it in aren't quite up to snuff.........so what does that mean for you? It means you get to read what I'm thinking for the next few minutes during lunch.....
1. My youngest brother was married this past Saturday to a woman who I adore, and after meeting her family, I adore all of them as well, plus there are more people to start randomly knitting for....

that is the shawl I made for Margie to wear, she loved it and it looked absolutely stunning on her!











2. It's October and that means pumpkin patch. Typically I prefer to go every single weekend in October but things have been a bit hectic and so I must settle for this coming Saturday with D as my only jaunt.
3. I've been in a bit of a snit lately and haven't quite pin pointed why as soon as I know, it's possible I'll let you know.
4. Chocolate Pudding is pretty much the best lunch ever especially when paired with a sock that I am working on, or not working on at the moment.
5. My nephew is turning 5 today, I can't believe it's been five years!!
Happy Birthday Bird :)









6. I have some Halloween parachuter toys that I found the other day, I might let them fly a bit later...........











on that note, I'm going to finish my pudding and turn that heel..........

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...

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?
