Playful Plummage Shawl

Been knitting on this since September 18...on the last repeat! This is done in the Orient colorway of Wollmeise, love, love, love it!


My second WWII hat for CoggieTM's hubby's unit.
I only knit on this at meets because its a non thinker!

Mr. Greenjeans sweater in the hummingbird colorway of Malabrigo....started this over a year ago but it has been hibernating in its bag. I should dig this out in hopes that it will get cool soon!

This is my Scrappy Happy Blankie that will be a forever WIP! Haven't done a square in awhile but they are so addicting when you do them!

I'm also knitting some preemie hats for a Hat Dance Raffle...(info in the Wolfe Farms group on Ravelry). On my hooks are things I can't mention because they are Christmas presents...I'm sure there will also be another shawl started soon because I just love knitting them so much! LOL I'm going to need to get more chairs to put them on!

Cosmo helping me spin!

The cats have never paid much attention to me spinning, until yesterday...he was just sitting there staring at me like he always does when whammo he jumps up and tries grabbing the roving! Silly boy! That's why he's a lightening strike blurr! Meow!!

Had a great Tuesday morning knit meet at Panera (my favorite)! Got a yummy pecan roll...it was yummy until I found out that it was 720 calories, geez didn't eat anything until dinner! Won't get that again, well maybe once in awhile!:) Perfect way to start the day...yummy food, great friends, and knitting!

Have a happy WOW Wednesday!
