February Knits

Hi!!
I got my conference socks done. They feel really good on my feet. I thought I would knit them till I used up the yarn but it just kept going and going so I have a little yarn leftover. More for my scrap sock bag.




I also made some fingerless mitts. MY wrist on my right hand was bothering me some while knitting. So I thought I would make these and try them out and see if it would help some. It does help some. but there is still some pain. At least it warms my wrist up some and the pain is lessened.



I now have 3 projects OTN. Seems like I can't do less than 3 at a time. I have a Log Cabin Afghan, Some socks for my daughter that are like the ones I made for my granddaughter. I am going to write the pattern for them and put it in Ravelry. I am also doing the February Sockdown socks. I am making them for my husband.

Have a great day!!

God Bless You!!

OTN

Hi!!
Here are some OTN projects and my crazy socks finished project.


Above are my Crazy socks that I made from scrap sock yarn.



Here are some socks that I am making for my Granddaughter. I'm putting little lace hearts on them. It is an experiment with lace purlwise. I like purling because my purling is tighter than my knitting. So I am trying to do the lace on the purl side.


Here are my conference socks. They are almost done.
Just trying to use up the yarn.



Here are my Sockdown Feb., socks. I am going to use the Widdershins heel on them. The sockdown Feb., socks are supposed to be a sock with a new to you heel. So here I go. They are for My husband Mike.
Anyway it seems that I can't do less that 3 projects at a time. I just keep getting this urge to start something else all the time.
Have a great day!!
God Bless you!!

January socks

Hi!!
I got my January Mystery socks done! I am so glad to be done with them. They were totally different than the way I am used to knitting socks. Top down and heel flap and stuff like that. I think they are pretty though and they feel good on my feet. They do fit well even though they look really big to me.



Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Stitc Markers


Hi!!
I just found these at Wal-Mart. I thought they would make great stitch markers. They are made out of shell and they are really smooth. They will probably come in handy when I get to knitting some lace shawls.

Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Conference Socks and more




Hi!!
These are the socks that I worked on while on my Conference trip with my Church. It took 5 hours to get there so I spent it knitting. We had a great time at the Conference. My Church was the wildest ones there. We always are. Jumping up and down praising the Lord. We did have a great time!



These are my sockdown January socks. I have some mess ups in the lace. I am just learning lace so I'm leaving it. I hate trying to pick up stitches after frogging a part. So onward I go.



Here is Where I am on my Crazy Socks made from scrap sock yarn. They are coming along too. I so much want to get all of these projects done. It is almost overwhelming to have them all three calling to me.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Conference

Hi!! I'm getting ready to go to a "Living in the Glory" Conference with my Church. It is somewhere in TN. It will take us 5 hours to drive there so I have some sock yarn and I am going to make what I call my Conference socks. I am making them from Knit Picks Dancing yarn. I don't know how much knitting I will get done. Our Church is pretty wild and not at all quiet or calm. Everybody is really loving though. I will be back Sunday or Monday.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!
