Finished!

The mohair easy lace scarf is finished. The baby socks for Griffin are finished, and washed. The blue chenile cap for my friend is DONE. And Gary and Jed finished the swingset with the fort for Griffin. It took a little longer than planned due to the rain

Heart for Love

I've been browsing the net tonight and found a couple of interesting patterns. There was a discussion on one of my lists about a Knit Brain that I saw last week, fairly anatomically correct, and interesting. Check out this heart - perfect for Valentine's Day.

Pants for Peace

I've been knitting on the pants that goes with Griffin's Peace sweater. Got a call from my DD last night. The sweater won't go over his head!! Guess I did the bind off a little too tight, I was trying to be loose...
She'll bring it back and I'll redo it.

They will be staying with us for a time so they can save to buy their own home. The little house they are in now has dry rot and mold all underneath. I'm looking forward tp spending more time with Griffie. He has been an official toddler for a month now. Every day he is a little more sure of himself, walking farther without falling, and now he gets up on one knee and just stands up. He climbed their kitchen 2 step stool, then squealed with delight at his accomplishment. He is so cute!!

This is my first attempt at lace knitting. The yarn is a mohair that I found at a local second hand store. There was only one skein, not quite enough yardage for the pattern that I had chosen, so I cast on 25 stitches instead of the 35 it called for. I'm loving it!

These are knit strips for an afghan that I started in 1977. (Screaming NEON) My cousin Sharon sent the yarn from her stash to Southern Oregon where we had just moved to a rural log cabin. I have 3 more strips to knit.

Peace Baby!

Griffin's first birthday is Saturday. This is his first sweater knit by Grammy. It was alot of fun to knit, but I didn't like doing the seams.

The pattern is from Knit 1 magazine

Coffee Cup Cozy

Knit with size 8 beads. It wasn't as hard as I had imagined. Stringing beads on the yarn took more time than knitting the piece. The pattern is from Needlecraft University; The Beads Go On. www.needlecraft5university.com
