NEXT!

Isn't this green beautiful?
It's stunning?
If a child asks you what 'stunning' you obviously have a lot of choices but showing the child this picture should be explanation enough.

This will be my next project for me.
Sorry babies, y'all are still cooking so that's buying me some time.

The pattern: Cream & Sugar Cowl
Designer: The super talented Alana Dakos of Never Not Knitting.
Yarn: The Plucky Knitter Merino Fingering in the color...Oz
The Model: I am pointing this out because she is a blogger friend, meaning we read each others blogs, have exchanged a few emails, and quite honestly I just am delighted in her knitting life that also includes a husband, 2 cats and a hedgehog named...Bruce Quillis.
This is Julie Crawford of Knitted Bliss.

So I am off to start this cowl.
It is for me.
But first I'm off to a bridal shower tonight.
We are 3 weeks away from Fatima and Michaels wedding so the celebrating has begun.
Happy Friday
Xoxo

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?
