Updated projects that I am doing 4/26/09






I have done this afghan so many times, the pattern book is falling apart. I have scanned the pattern on my computer and copied a working copy to work with. I recently made this afghan for my daughter-in-law's sister Courtney for her baby shower next month.



This is the baby afghan I am knitting for Courtney for after the baby is born. I am knitting it with Plymouth Dreambaby D.K. in a tan color and plan to embroider the baby's name and birthdate in pink for they already know it is a girl.

Great American Afghan book of squares


This square pattern is in the Great American Afghan book by Traci Bunkers. I plan to make each square in this book. No timeline but I am going to try. This square took only two days to do. I plan to make it square a different color.

Peacock Feathers by Fiddlesticks Knitting KAL


I am doing the Peacock Feathers KAL, I just finished Chart 1 and 1A and will be ready for chart 2 when I get to work on it again. The yarn is by Jaggerspun Zephyr in the bottle green color. I just love this yarn. Usually I am allergic to wool but this combination I do not feel the itchy fingers when I have touched wool before. I cannot get it here in Wichita, so whenever my son comes up from Plano, or I, my brothers go down there, I call in a order of yarn from the Woolie Ewe in Plano, Texas. That store is to die for! Anyone that finds themselves in Plano, Texas must stop in to see Woolie Ewe, you won't regret it.

I have signed up for so many Knitalongs



This is the first clue on one of my knitalongs. It is the Slow Bee Mystery I Shawl Knitalong. I am doing it on some cone yarn that a friend of mine had given me a few years ago, but I hadn't done anything with the yarn yet.
