Patterns

A girl at my church is getting married tomorrow. I just finished making her an Afghan last night. Here is a picture of it.
I have also been busy making 2 pair of socks for the July sockdown.
If you notice in my side bar that I have some new patterns up. They are PDF's so they should let you download them when you click on them.

Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Flip Flop Socks

I got the Flip Flop socks all done!
It was a challenge to do but they are done.
I am working on writing up the pattern and I will put it in Ravelry.


My Granddaughter is wearing them in these pictures. She says they look like mittens for your feet. I was hoping that she would have worn Flip Flops today so we could get a picture with them but she didn't.
Have a great day!
God Bless You!!

I have gotten the heels turned on these now. I am working on some stitch patterns for the leg. After looking in my one lonely stitch pattern book I realized that if I'm going to design patterns I need more stitch pattern books for more ideas.

I made some project bags and gave them to my friends that knit with me at Barnes and Nobles on Thursday nights. We have a great time.

I did get my garden in finally. Things are growing nicely. We haven't had much rain so I have had to water it a lot. I am also picking blueberries. They are loaded this year. I seem to pick about a gallon of berries every time I go out there to pick them. It looks like next week the Blackberries will be starting to ripen.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

I got the Spidey mittens done. Gave them to my grandson. Now I am working on some Flip Flop socks for my granddaughter. They look like they are too big but when I try them on her feet they seem to be just slightly big on her. Her feet are growing so fast.
I write down sizes in a little notebook for family member's socks and her feet are 1 and a half inches longer than they were the last time I made her a pair of socks. These Flip Flop socks are an entry for the sockdown in Ravelry. They are a do your own pattern. I am writing the pattern as I go along. I will upload it to Ravelry when I get done with it.
As far as the garden, I finally got it planted. It is quite late this year but we have a really long season. My blueberries are ready and I have been picking bowlfuls of them. I need to get out there this morning and pick some.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

Spidey Mittens

I am working on my grandson's Spidey mittens. I got past the thumb hole by about 4 rows and realized that I had one of the thumb holes wrong and the mittens would have fit just one hand. So I had to frog one back and redo it. Now I have them right. It was quite a mess to undo.
I got my mulch for my garden and hopefully tomorrow I can get it all spread out and ready for the plants. My Blueberries are loaded and my blackberries are loaded now I just need to watch them for ripening. Our nut trees have nuts on them this year too. Last year the freeze got them and we had none. They look like they are going to be loaded this year too.
Have a great day!!
God Bless You!!

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!!
