What a week...

Bugga caught something this week and was fevered on Tuesday, fine on Wednesday, then fevered on Thursday and today. Needless to say, I've spent a lot of time at home. I found myself thinking about knitting more than actually knitting. I decided to bid on yarn from Ebay and won, so I'm excited about that. I've also been looking for tank top patterns for a 4 yr old girl made from bulky yarn. I've completed approximately 10 projects so far, I think I'm ready to create my own pattern. MUAH! Other than that, I've been wandering around my house aimlessly and trying to get my sinuses to quit hurting so bad. (Side note: a damp washcloth in a sandwich baggie, microwave for 45 sec, throw it over your eyes is WAY better than any over the counter medication I found and it doesn't make you drowsy. Just don't burn yourself!) I have finished my first sock - it's for Jammer. Soon, she'll have a pair...I hope.

Kool-Aid - not just for kids anymore...

This post could have also been called, 'How many women does it take to un-knot 440 yds of yarn'. That is what we did for the first 4 hours of our adventure (seriously). However, after that part was done and we started dying, it had to easily be the funnest craft project I've ever done. Thanks for all the fun, Niki! We had both kids around (3.5 and 2) and still managed to get 4 skeins of yarn dyed with Kool-Aid. 8 hours with me and the girls and I didn't even have to tie her down to keep her here. Simply stated - the best President's Day that I've ever had.

More Projects...

Here are pictures of my first purse (which I gave

to the girls) and my hat...

I am currently working on my first pair of socks and a ballet sweater for my youngest (seen in previous blog) aka Jammer.

Trying the blog thing...

So I decided to try the blog thing...Mainly as a place to show off my knitting adventures. I've just begun knitting and am completely hooked. Here is a picture of my first project. Hats for my girls.
