I'm ready for In the Pink Shawl

I found the yarn Thursday, and can't wait to start this gorgeous In the Pink  shawl!!!!


This yarn is 100% acrylic, non-pill, and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO  soft.  I have to finish two other projects before I allow myself to start this.  Stay tuned!!!

cute little hat

My new daughter-in-law's niece outgrew her cupcake hat, so I made this cute little owlie hat.

Happy, happy wedding day!!!

I had to share a couple of photos of Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Turner!!!   It was a gorgeous day, and wonderful event.  They are in Jamaica in the sunshine, while we have rain, but I'm so thankful the rain held off.
And now I present my son and his beautiful wife, Jill!!!



Aren't they so sweet and in love!!!!!

Sam's Button Hat

This was a free promotion pattern from TerzzaKnits and I had to make it!!!  Hubby thinks it's not wearable, but he's not up on fashion.

This hat is also featured on the Ravelry page for the pattern.

I also made a baptismal stole, but think it won't be used at church.  I adapted a pattern that was too big for a baby, and it turned out nice.


That's all for now!!!  Enjoy the spring weather!

Another baby!!!!

My nephew is having a baby girl, which was just brought to my attention (again) on Facebook!!  Good thing I made this for a "just in case".

 I also got started on my Wee Nativity...




Had a great day with the chicklets, and was sad two were unable to make it!!!  I know you were there in spirit!!!

Twinkle twinkle blanket #2

Got this done at 3:15 this afternoon, one day before Feb. FO "contest" on one of the forums I follow, and two weeks before the KAL on another forum is deadlined.  This one ended with only 412 stitches; bulky yarn and size 9 needles.  My great-nephew will look stylin' in this, I'm sure.

I think I'm finished with all my baby items.  At least for a few months, I hope!!!!

Two more crossed off the list

I have two more baby gifts done and ready for the mail.  I THINK I am on the last one, so no one else can have a baby for a while!!!


Simple rolled brim hat:



Basketweave/ garter stitch blanket:  (I improvised the pattern)


I'm halfway finished with the final blanket; another from the center out, which I really like to do:

Not the best picture.  It's blue and white.  There are two more dark blue sections done since this picture.
