ok things look a lot better now. I just don't know what happened before there was nothing there to put the pictures in.
Anyway I am using the Freya pattern you can see it closer on this picture.


I am making these socks for my daughter for her birthday on the 29th. I think I have plenty of time to get them done. I am also entering them into the Sockdown May in Ravelry. I really do enjoy doing these Sockdown KALs. they keep me going on my socks. I really love the color of these socks. Too bad Knit Picks has discontinued it.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Hi!!
Here is some yarn that my friend Morandia dyed. She is experimenting with dyes and yarn to sell. This has 800 yards. Since I am her friend I got first choice and I just couldn't resist this yarn. It is superwash fingerling weight.
I got my Sockdown April socks done finally. Now I have cast on for the may Sockdown socks. I am going to try doing a little cable again. I seem to have troubles with them but I will try again and see.
My iris's are really doing a blooming show this year so I included a picture of them. I think all of the rain helped them bloom a lot. They are really pretty in person.
Have a great day!! God Bless You!!

I Won!!!! I won the sockdown drawing for March.
Here is what I won. A nice Skein of "A Cowboy's Work is never done" From Sonny & Shear
and
They sent along some herbal teas too!
I am also showing a picture of the wiggle socks that I am working on for the April Sockdown. I am using up some of my leftover sock yarns on them.
I am almost done with them. I am really late on my start for the May Sockdown.
We had a really busy weekend. My Son in Law graduated from college on Saturday and we had a big cookout with about 20 people at our house. We all had a great time.
Have a great day!!
God Bless you!!

Bed Dolls

Hi!!
Here are some Bed Dolls that I made for my Granddaughters for Christmas of 2006.

I just now got around to taking pictures of them.

I think I had pictures of them but somehow in many computer changes they had gotten lost.

So now I finally got new ones and I have added them to my Ravelry projects.

We are supposed to get storms here tonight and tomorrow. Hopefully they will be gone by tomorrow night so that I can go to our Knitting get together at Barnes and Noble. We meet every Thursday night and have a good time talking, and knitting, and ready to teach others to knit or crochet too.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Mittens

Hi!!
I'm still working on my Icarsus Shawl and a pair of Flame wave socks.

I got these mittens done for my granddaughter.



Next I will be working on a pair of mittens for my grandson. Some Spidey ones. I downloaded the pattern from Ravelry but their chart was too dark. It had dark red and black squares and ona black and white printer they all came out almost the same color. so I had to lighten it up some.

Here it is lightened up some.



Anyway I'm going to attempt them.
Have a great day!!
God Bless you!!
