WIP'S...Works In Progress

Working on some preemie hats for a couple different KAL's...one is for Sweet Caroline and will be going to Michigan and another is for Remy in New York (info of these on the Wolfe Farms Ravelry group). These are getting my knitting mojo/blog mojo back....the daybreak has really wore me down.

Preemie hats are done in Sunshine Yarns Classic: yellow above is Gourd and the other is New Moon Alice. They are so fun to do...will be doing quite a few of these. They are done on size 2 circs...


The never-ending Daybreak shawl...its almost done but each row takes about 4o minutes to get through...soooooo boring; at least the yarn is awesome. I have at least 8 more rows to go but have thrown it in a bag for a bit while I make some preemie hats!

February Lady Sweater is still marinating in a bag too...

What are you working on?

WIP'S...Works In Progress

Sunshine February Lady Sweater...coming along nicely. Very fun knit!

Started working on my Happy Scrappy Sock Blanket....love working on this...one square a night!
Cleaning out garage; going through boxes that we stuck in there when we moved here...loading up trailer for a trip to the dump; separating stuff to donate; and taking pics of things to put on Craigslist.

Wren Shawl

Finished the Wren Shawl for the Yarning's KAL! Awesome pattern...was really scared towards the end of running out of yarn...was weighing it every couple of rows! At least it decreases as you're getting near the end!

Randy peeking out of his house...staring at the back door waiting for me to let him in!:) Can barely see him except the tip of his wee pink nose! Him and Fuji got to take a trip to the vet yesterday to get their vaccinations...guess who screamed the loudest...yes, Sir Randy, poor baby. Both were tuckered out by the time we got home. Hope you all had a great Valentines...I was extremely lucky and had my Valentine home all day with me!:)
