I would but I'm not going to........

Show you just what my circular needles look like......Well to be fair they have gotten better since I separated them by length into ziploc bags but what I really need is one of those hanging organizer thingy's by size.........however I digress, my circular needles resemble something close to a snake pit in the movie Indiana Jones.........and now as I approach the end of hat number 1 on size 6's I am now looking towards hat number 2 which requires a size 5 circular needle......I'll be damned if I can find one in the snake pit but I know I have one, don't I? I'm pretty sure I have one.......I'm almost positive I knit something on a size five at some point....didn't I? hmmmmmm you know what's going to happen right? I'm going to run to the store and buy a 16" size 5 circular needle and when I get home the one I've been looking for is going to nip me right in the kazoo, kind of like Mr. Brown when I am late feeding him.
We won't talk about my DPN's, I'd rather tip toe across hot coals than explain that containment system to you, but I have a plan...........
Happy Tuesday!

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?
