A Baby Break~~

I am so excited. The kids called me for lunch and presented me with this picture. First photos of my first grandchild!! He/she is 10 weeks and 4 days in this ultrasound*. Whooohooo!!!

------I think he/she kinda looks like me. Don't you? LOL----------

(*from left to right: head w/ a hand in front of his/her head and then the bottom. very photogenic!)

Lookee What I Found!!

I don't know how many people honor the sacred knitting holiday known as "Talk Like A Pirate" Day. I found this great site with amazing 'count-down-to-pirate-day' borders.

Thought I would share! Look at the end of this blog and check out one of them. (of course I chose the one with Johnny Depp) Enjoy.

Happy Mother's Day!

Mom and me (@ 1 year old)*

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's in the world. Knitting or not.

*sorry for the quality. the pic is 40+++ years old!

There's Knitting In The House!

Look!! Socks!!
The bad thing about moving is sometimes the label falls off and you can't remember what the yarn is, or who sold it to you, or how to wash it. The good thing is it still makes up into a really cool sock that actually doesnt look so bad with the MAJOR amount of pooling going on. Personally I think it's kind of hypnotic.

This is a basic sock with a 6k-1p-2k-1p rib pattern. This is one of my favorite patterns simply because it is mindless but looks a bit busy. I love the little stripey toes!!

Harry Potter Yarn!!

Found info on this @ http://simplysockyarn.typepad.com/simply_socks_yarn_co/2008/04/opals-new-harry.html

This Is Too Funny!! A Harlot Song!

Steph went to St Paul** and the staff of the Yarnery wrote songs for her!! These are hilarious! And fairly decent too.



This one is my favorite!!

**sorry guys, I cant read. I put Atlanta when it should have been St Paul. Am going back to "See Dick, See Dick run. See Jane. See Jane run". Thanks Amy :)
