I Went to Mount Magazine in Arkansas for a Spinning and Knitting Extravaganza weekend.
This was the sunrise at the lodge. I took it through a window that had a screen on it but it was just so beautiful.
We went to a couple of yarn stores. One in Russellville called Knit 2 Together.

And the other one in Fort Smith called Stringtown.
We all had a great time!! I took lots of pictures. so many that there is not enough room to share. THey would also fill up my Flickr account if I put them all in there.

We had a vendors room in the Lodge at Mount Magazine.
Everyone was feeling all the wonderful fiber, from yarn to fleeces.
I finished the Monster hat for my grandson.
The pattern is in the sidebar with my other patterns.

I now need to make another one for my granddaughter. Then I have 2 leg warmers to make for my two granddaughters. Still lots of Christmas knitting.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Projects OTN



I got the Quilt finished and wrapped for my Grandson's birthday. Now I am working on the Monster hats. I'm making two of them one for my grandson and one for my granddaughter. I think I will make wrist warmers to go with them. I also have a thought to make some leg warmers for my two granddaughters. I have a pair of socks on the needle for my daughter. I don't know if I have enough time to get all of them done. But new ideas keep coming. Ideas to make this and that.
I am going to a Sit and Spin/knit at Mount Magazine this weekend. I am really excited. this is my first fiber weekend. We are going to visit a couple of yarn stores too. It is so hard to decide what I am going to take with me to knit. I would take the monster hats but the yarn takes up so much space. So I think I will take some smaller projects. I may be running around so much that I won't have much time to knit anyway. I will let you all know how it goes.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Christmas Knitting




I have the socks done! I am glad to be finished with them. Now today I'm going to work on the Wall-E quilt for my grandsons birthday. He will be 4 years old on the 10th. He picked out the Wall-E sheet for the back of the quilt. it came in a whole set with a flat a fitted and a pillowcase. So it will be a set for his bed all together. But the flat sheet will be a quilt instead. I have squares cut out and ready to sew together. I hope I have enough of them cut. I will find out in the next couple of days. I am also working on my Monster hats and some Peace socks for my Daughter. I think I will do some leg warmers for my Granddaughters.
I don't know what else I could fit in and get done before Christmas. I may think of something!!
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!
