Sunday 7/8/07




Yesterday was supposed to be a lucky day, didn't seem to be much difference to me! Lisette and I did go to Hobby Lobby to look at flowers, no decisions made yet, but she did find the materials she wanted for her girls necklaces and today there is a 40% off coupon, so I'll give her some money tomorrow and have her go get the stuff. 1 more thing to check off the list. Actually, I need to make a list so I can check it off!



These are festival hats 1,2 and 3 of a fuzzy red acrylic with some yellow in it. The 3rd had has stripes of a yellow "fancy" yarn. Various number of stitches on size 8's.



I finished Lauren's tube socks last night...these were more trouble than they were worth with having to rip out the 2nd one nearly to the beginning because somehow my stitch count was off by two stitches, enough to make a difference! Cut off the toe and began to reknit a pair of mine that I will hand off to Lisette now as my drawer is a little crowded, and I have yarn for at least 3 pair in line to be made. Reknitting toes is a little time consuming but not nearly as much as knitting a whole new sock!





Pulled a little more yarn out of the spiderweb yesterday (I was supposed to be choreographing Daylight Dancer but was having a hard time getting motivated!). I need to start a new hat, have enough red, white and blue pulled for at least one and maybe two. There's a lot of the blue so might get a RWB and a Blue and white one done. There is some beautiful turg blue wool in the web that I've pulled quite a bit of, but don't think I'll do a charity hat with that as someone might wash it and shrink it and then it would be of no use to them.
This is festival hat #5, a Red-Heart like acrylic, in 8 row stripes of RWB on size 8's- 66 stitches. .

Little Lamb Sweater


I was so excited yesterday to find the only 6 lamb buttons in all of Salina to finish my sweater. It is just so cute! (even with the flaws in my colorwork process, it's darling!)
