Can’t believe I actually finished these in time for the drawing. Whew…
I have been working on these and avoiding these for the past two months. Last night I was able to finish them up just in time for Christmas. Since we are now here in Virginia, Scott needs something warm on his hands. So, here are Scott’s Christmas Gloves…
Have been working on these for a couple of weeks now. Had to stop though because the 5” needles are hurting my hands…had to order some 7” dpns and am waiting for them to arrive to resume…anyway, here is my 1st pair for November:
Start date: November 1, 2009
Completion date: TBA
Pattern used: Candelabra by Chrissy Gardiner
Yarn: Cascade [...]
I finally found the time to sit down and put together this pattern. The Atlanta Knitters Guild Secret knit-a-long took place in June, 2009. Since starting back to school I have not had time to do much designing or editing and so now it is November and the pattern, somehow, is complete and ready for [...]

This is what it looks like in the evenings at our house these days…
Ebby helped me, in her normal way, finish the first of this month’s socks tonight. I love the sock and the way the cables turned out, but it was harder than I had expected…Cables are in my future, but as with [...]
Don’t know if you all have seen this group of ladies preform, but this morning was the first time I had seen them. Wow! Enjoy!
And
Ebby’s birthday is on the 9th of October. So she and I went on an excellent adventure today to celebrate. We went to Hancock fabrics where we bought her a new yard of fleece for two new blankets. Of course, what motif would one get for a one year old Chihuahua? How about this:
Then we [...]
Last week’s Dogs on Thursday post was not one that was planned. Although we did expect the outcome eventually, it was not welcome. Anyway, this week I can post photos of Ebby’s first experience with swimming. While on our trip last week we were able to visit the Outer Banks of North Carolina. If you [...]
This was not the post I had planned for today, but today was the day Blazer needed to leave us. He had been with us for 16 years, outlived his brother by two years and his body finally succumbed to the natural degradation that is old age.
We got Blazer as a baby from a breeder [...]
Ebby learned to swim today in the ocean! I will post photos of this experience in my Dogs on Thursdays Post. In the meantime, here is what we did today.
Driving through Lynchburg one last time on our way to the Outer Banks of North Carolina I snapped these shots.
I had hoped to get a photo [...]
