Growing

L M

has grown!!! he's so sweet. the blue blankie was crocheted by Josie from work. (his sweater is one of the One Skein bolero i knit before his birth). He SMILES alot!!

Josie is a great person to shop with!!! speaks her mind about yarn.........she's enabled and prevented me from some purchases! but.........she doesn't understand my fascination with socks!! i still have 3 pairs on the needles....with several patterns waiting.

see my smile!






i'm working on a wimple for one of the nurses at work - told her if she picked and bought yarn, i'd do the work - know what she chose??? after my instructions that it should be 75% or more wool (because she has horses & wanted something for her neck & head when out at the barn & of course didn't want to be choked by a scarf) - she came back with Lion Brand Homespun ---YUCK! this stuff #1 is NOT - so NOT - wool. #2 is "squirrelly" no other way to describe it - i've worked with it before and did not care for it - but,,but,,but - her wimple is on the needles and i'll finish it this weekend-- cause i want it OUT of the house!! and no, i did not hurt her feelings and tell her how much i hate that yarn - she thought it was pretty and soft and was so pleased with the purchase.

oh yea, that odd pic is one my sis C scanned of old photos she has of the family. i remember this birthday!!! guess i need to pull out all my photos and scan them. too cool!!

Happy Smappy Thursday :)
