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!!

3 pair of Socks


Here is a progress picture of my socks. My goal is to get them done before the end of the month. I have 9 rows of pattern to complete then I will do a K2 P2 ribbing on top for a cuff. I cast on a new pair of socks for my daughter for Christmas. I have to get her foot measurements when she comes over for Thanksgiving.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Hi!!
Well here is my progress on my 3 pairs of socks on two circular needles. I am in the process of turning the heels on them. I am ready to get these finished and do some holiday knitting. I am also working on a wall-e quilt for my grandson for his birthday. I bought a Wall-e sheet to use as the backing. The front will be just plain squares.
Have a great day!!
God bless You!!

Knitting at NASCAR

Hi!! We went to the NASCAR races at the Texas Speedway last weekend. I took my knitting. I am in the progress of knitting three pairs of socks at a time on two circular needles. I made some progress at the races but not as much as I wanted to. But at least I have proof that I knitted at the NASCAR races!
On other knitting I made my grandson an Alligator scarf! And I made my granddaughter a Bunny Buddy blanket. So I have been quite busy.




















I am doing two different patterns on the socks. One pattern is Susanna and the other is Komet, both by Stefanie Van Der Linden. I found the patterns on Ravelry.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!
