This flower arrangement will be given to the Sunday School superintentdent. The kids are going to paste there pictures in the middle of the flowers and write thank yous on the back. Super fun to make. I used SCAL 2 and various flower files I have collected from all the talented people who share. Thanks for sharing with me.

Wool Peddler Shawl


I made this shawl for my Great, Great Aunt who is 99 year old. She recently broke her upper arm and was recuperating from that break when she fell out of a chair and broke her hip. She is now back in the hospital and has had surgery for her hip. Red is her favorite color. I choose a acrylic yarn just for easy laundry care. The yarn was very soft to knit with but it was also very splity and I have a feeling it will get fuzzy over time.

BYOB



Bring your own bag. Another great Knitty pattern. This was a quick knit . My bag came out super big. I think I should have gone down a needle size. I found the seed stitch worked out a lot looser.

Alan Dart Patterns and Yuletide Gnome




Once again Ravelry strikes again!!! I was surfing patterns on Ravelry for quick Christmas knits and fell in love with this Yuletide Gnome. Searched high and low and finally was able to get the pattern. So here he is in all his festive glory.


Click pictures for larger image. He has a cute little nose. I wish I had choose different fun fur for his beard. It blends to well with his face. Oh well live and learn

Knitting with fabric

Here is a Finished UFO. I started this bag a couple of years ago and lost interest. When I was cleaning out my yarn bins I found the kit and decided I needed to finish. So I only had to knit one side for the bag I had already made the first side so within about an hour I had the second side done. I then went downstairs to my sewing area and sewed the kit together( pretty simple). I love the bag but I think I am going to redo the handles. I like a little longer handle. I was thinking of braiding some fabric and making new handles to match. Here is a couple of shots. I will reload if I redo the handle soon.

Monica




Sorry I have not posted lately. Summer sure keeps us all busy. Between vacations and daily life I feel like I am running full speed ahead without a life-line!!

Here is a quick knit project I finished for my daughter. It is the Monica ruffled Tank Top from Summer Knitty.

I used TLC cotton plus in pink and green for this cutie. I did make some changes to original pattern. I did a 2x2 ribbing at the bottom and knitted the top in the round.

Wave and Shell Shawl



On the needles right now I have a Cotton Wave and Shell pattern Shawl. I love the one done in the cotton ribbon yarn but couldn't find any locally that I liked so I am using peaches and cream worsted wt cotton in faded denim . This is a very easy pattern and I have it memorized so it makes for good knitting on the go.
