loopy and lucious2005
Ignore how awful I look and please draw your attention to the fabulous scarf that Nathan Novak of Nathannovak.net describes as "Halloween as F(bleeped da bleep)" and many and old lady has stopped me to say how lovely they think it is.
It contains two parts kid merino to one part Hip Hop yarn. Which you can see knit up creating a lovely contrast between the thick and thin yarns. This takes a set of size 17 needles and some tender loving care. Let it sit for a few days during frustrations and wallah in no time you can have one of these amazing scarves too. Pattern found on knitty.com.
read this part super fast
please note that there may be some allergic reactions for people sensitive to wools and animal fibers, needles are pointy and should be used for their specified purposes if not the eyes maybe lost and things impaled. This pattern may cause light headedness and lushness.Please knit safely.

one down more to go
So I finished the Loopy and Lucious scarf I was working on. I'll post pictures as soon as Flickr is back up since it had a crash recently.
I am determined to finish the baby blanket this weekend. It will be done. Same with the misfits pillow. I need to chat with Amber about the link to that by the way. just a quick Personal reminder.
I went to the Norfolk knitting group that all the peta workers go to. It was interesting. I think I'll go agian some time even though I do knit with sheep. They were all knitting with acrylics and cottons so I didn't feel so bad.
I can't wait to show off the loopy and lucious scarf. Hopefully flickr won't be down long.
this weeks goals
* baby blanket
* onsies for jo
* bikini for Chrissy
* start the bike bag

Another Day
So today I got recomended to a new yarn site called Pluckyfluff it has some niffty yarns.
My car is still broken down so I got dropped off moyo early at work and got to knit like crazy today. I am almost half finished with the little baby blanket I was working on. The pink one.
I went to Target and bought the onsies that I am going to embroder for the little babies that I need to gift. I am doing two for Nancy's baby boy Jo who was born weighing in at 8 Lbs. His poppa is proud his momma is proud and all the rest of us are excited to see him. The other two onsies will be divided one going to Denise's baby and the other to Brittany's baby. Hopefully they'll like them. I'll start on them tomorrow.
I also got some cute sweaters from Wlamart sounds like an oximoron but its not. Tomorrow I am going to totally doll it up. I love new clothing. I also got a cute new Jacket since my fav black jacket shrank. Dern dryers
I recieved a wedding announcement for my friend Greg Hill to a Rachel Amanda La Var. I am moyo happy for them. I wish I could attend but I am unable so I will send my congradulations and a gift. I'll see if I can put up a pic of the happy couple soon.
I am going to try to go to Utah in June for Christina's wedding though. We'll see. She is having two receptions one in Utah on in PA.
Well I am off to clean my room, play dress up with my new clothing, and go through some of my old clothing to the Salvation Army.

luckycloversproutsapril2005
My lucky clover sprouted today! I planted them a week ago right before I went to MacRock (which was a blast by the way). I bought them at target in the dollar spot. Awesome. I have some black eyed susans, fressia, and forget me nots to plant too. I gave my mom the sun flowers, chives, and another pack of balck eyed susans but I don't think she's planted hers yet. I'll keep photo graphing lucky's progress. Lets hope I don't accidently kill it. I am natourious for doing that with plants but I seen to be doing ok so far with lucky. We'll see.

new crafts april2005
thank you Donna for lending me this pattern. It is perfect and really fun to knit. I love it.
I have been having a blast with embrodery lately. Its fast its easy its like drawing with a sewing needle. I love it. So this is the idea I am currently working on. Compostion note books that have been covered and embrodered. I am debating on selling some to a local record shop that would probubly be into them. We'll see. I want more feed back first.
