New Adventure... on the side

Last week I was approached by the owner of America's Knitting asking if I would like to be a moderator of her Ravelry group.
At first I hesitated because I've never really involved myself with the groups I belong to on Ravelry and the little I did ended when I was scolded by someone for, god forbid, sharing a project not by the designer that said group worshipped.
However, I am friends with Mary, and I love America's Knitting. She's posted many of my finished projects and is the nicest lady I've talked with, so today I began the adventure of moderator.

I hope all of you will come over and join the group and try and keep me on my toes!
I ran the So Much Yarn Facebook page before I left 3 years ago and I really enjoyed that so I think this will be a similar outlet.

Now, I'm of to cover this grey hair that's creeping out of my skull...
Have a great day and come find me on the America's Knitting Raverly Group!

I'll also try not to cross post and repeat what I say here, there and vice versa :)
Unless I'm super proud of something and then I'll post it everywhere on the web because I'm crazy like that!!
xoxo
happy Saturday!

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?
