Why I Knit......

The Man sleeping and snoring. 24/7

















The Brat on the computer. 24/7

Hey ! Kool-aid!

Went to Butterfly's and watched as she dyed sock yarn with Kool-aid! Fun!

I took more pictures of the process but my camera ate them!

Now I want to get my own yarn and try this dyeing stuff.

And it smells great!

Floppy head

No wonder why I really like Buttefly!

No matter what she's knitting, she will put it on her head! This is a tank top.

She's the goofball I dream to be!

Knit-In

Sunday I had a six hour "Knit-In". I invited all the knitters I knew and they could come and stop in for a little while or for the whole 6 hours.

Butterfly, Lishy, Suzy, and Lola! You were all missed!


Dee cast on for a shrug using size 50 needles and 3 strands of yarn.








Sassy worked on a scarf and is holding her first crocheted baby hat. Cute!















Caroline worked on a pink scarf for another aunt.















At the end of the Knit-In, Dee had a finished shrug. So pretty and soft! The picture does not do it justice!







And.....I worked on a fun new project but can't show pictures because it's a bithday present for one of my readers!

Next time we are planning on a Knit-Out!

Knitting Night Birthday

Caroline had Friday Night Knitting at her house! We got to celebrate her birthday with her!

She worked on a pink scarf for her aunt.













I finished a baby hat for Little Mist's senior project.















Dee helped Sassy bind off her first scarf.

















Hey! there had to be food and boy was there! Caroline out did herself on the meal! YUM!!!!!














Caroline's daughter, Hannah, joined us for a little bit. She's our youngest member. She's working on an orange scarf.






Caroline, hope you had as much fun as we did!

Kitchen Update

I updated the kitchen with some handmades. Yes! They are pink! The Man has his own kitchen at his house so I can enjoy the Pink in mine! LOL




Of course I had to crochet and knit some dishcloths!









The Brat and I spent a Saturday afternoon painting pictures. I think the big one is kinda lame looking! And I can say that because I painted it! I am thinking about either redoing it or ditching it for a new one

The Brat did great on hers.











A crocheted rug, holding two strands of cotton together. I love it!

Goodbye Charlie

Charlie, "my boy" was hit by a car early this morning. My good friend and Charlie's adoptive mother , Caroline, let me know this sad, sad news.

He just celebrated his first birthday a couple of weeks ago.

Charlie, you will be greatly missed .












This is one of my favorite pictures of Charlie as a kitten.
