Thanksgiving crept up on me....gobble, gobble....

Well it is Thanksgiving Day and I am still stuffed. Went to Uncle Dave and Aunt Liz's house in Lil'Rhody. It was great to see everyone. My cousin is almost finished with her first semester at Boston University, I can't believe it! Her sister, my other cousin, is a junior in high school and is getting her learner's permit in March...Where does the time go?

My favorite thing about getting together with my family is that we all talk at the same time and we all seem to be able to follow each others conversations? One of life's mysteries I guess...

For the first time this year we were only able to be with half our family. I want to send a "shout out" to the rest of my family on Cape Cod, and you know who you are...! Holla Chris and Gracie!

This is Roxie, my cousins' dog. Once I realized I had my camera, I was able to snap one. I did take other pictures, but my cheesy digital camera has this delay I keep forgetting about...it really is operator error...red eye flash tricks me every time.

Well I have knit two more purses, and will be felting this weekend...I will post then. It's a "hand made" Christmas this year!

Gobble gobble, oh yeah, Thank you!

Felting Day!!!!

I have completed the knitting for bag #1!!! Not very pretty now, but felting can hide a multitude of sins...


Bag #2 on the needles...



Can't wait to felt and post!

Pictures!

This is my felted bag in progress. I CO 39 stitches and increased every 6th row until I had 55 stitches. Then I knit 8 rows and decreased until I had 39 stitches. We will felt this in a few weeks, so I decided I would knit as many as I could until then...Christmas is coming!

Felted bag project

..well after a Starbucks, I completed the knitting required for my felted bag. I will post some pics when I take some, ya'think? I have started bag #2 since things went swimmingly with the first..

Day-light savings blues...

Day-light savings is here..and so comes knitting...I am combating my blues by joining a knitting group at my library...we are making a felted bag!

I will post my progress...our final day is at the laundry mat...

I am new to this blog stuff but I was so inspired by so many in the Blog community I figured, what the heck, I'll do it....
