Oh, the weekend...

This was Sunday morning during the Seahawks game.
Post Murder Mystery Dinner Baby Shower.
Post the not so hot pink but highly drinkable Barbie punch.
Post cake that is not appropriate content for this blog.
Post Friday night hockey.

It was a fun weekend
If you've never had a murder mystery party I highly recommend it. I had never done one and when we got rolling Saturday night I couldn't stop laughing.

We had so much fun with mystery part and then we celebrated the new baby who will be here in December...

The cake was awesome.
I saw the picture and sent it to Lisa as a joke. Lisa's husband sent it to Clint as a joke. Kim and Clint were excited that the cake I sent, which was horrifying, was awesome and so glad it was going to be their cake!

But like I said... Not appropriate for here.
But use your imagination... It has to do with birthing...

Vicki did an amazing job with it.
It was delicious.

Sunday I crashed. I knit and kept my feet in the 'up' position all day.
I finished my Age of Brass & Steam. It's just waiting to be blocked. I'll probably do that tonight... Or tomorrow.
I cast on a pair of Dancing Bamboo socks from the book Pints & Purls.
I've made them before, they are wonderful.


Happy Monday all...
I'll post about the ABS tomorrow :)

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?
