Newest Knit

I finished tha hat i was making for a pregnant friend.... it's being modeled by a TY Angel Bear at my work... i actually followed a pattern, I love the way it turned out, all i did differently was add the lil pom pom on the top! I can't wait to see pics of baby Alex wearing the hat.

Update on my knitting

Well at the moment i have jsut one project i am working on...several projects on the Needles... but i am only working on one.... a friend of mine is scheduled for a C section end of next month, so i am knitting a hat fro her precious lil boy... and then i may even attempt some lil booties...not sure.. DPNs still scare me! Unfortuantely i do not havea picture... but i will post one when the prject is finished... hopefully by tonight... hat's don't take that long especially for babies!

Some Soap Sacks

Firdst 2 pictures are a soap sack i knit from the book Spa & Bath Sets to Knit.... it was a simple knit... 2 sittings would have been one if the first wasn't in the car while driving through a safari at the local amusement park!

the second set is a soap sack i knit up on my own... I used a drop stitch but it doesn't really show in the pictures! LOL i use a pill bottle to mdel them instead of soap!

And now she said at Christmas when they go into the attic, she will pull out all her old Knitting pattern books! I am SOOOO excited...she went on and on about how i probably wouldn't want them, because the styles are old, and how knitting has probably changed... ALL THE MORE reason i want them!

My First Round Cloth

Well I never seem to finish Square cloths, so i started this "round" cloth...needless to say i haven't touched it in about a week! But I WILL finish it! Maybe since it's raining today, I will work on it while watching Movies with the kids!

Another soap sack!!

Here is another completed Soap Sack.... it's being modeled with a cell phone in it! I was to lazy to go get a ba of soap to put in it!

And this is just a close up to show off the stitch pattern i used, and the colors in the yarn! This one is going to Sam, she is a pink freak.... I am now working on one i n a varigated blue cotton yarn..... but i'm not sure i like it, so i may go look up different stiches, to plan it out myself!
