Good afternoon everyone.  I have heard from a couple of friends that they actually read my blog.....so that was pretty encouraging.  Thank you to everyone that reads my ramblings about my obsession:  knitting!

This past week, I started a new lazy girl shawl!  You would think I would be tired of it, and I am...but I really do love the pattern.  I wear so much black to work, that I decided to make one with Dream in Color Smooshy with Cashmere in black pearl, and Jitterbug Collinette in Sahara.  Here are the first 10 repeats.


I also finished the hat and scarf I was making for my cousin's daughter.  I think this set will be perfect for the cooler weather in Germany.  The picture of me is not so good (I was tired), but I wanted you to see how long the scarf is....it is about 6 1/2 feet long.






Now, my daughter in law sent me a picture of some really cute baby booties she wants me to make.  They are Crochet.  I will search ravelry for a pattern.  I am going to try to make them, but just in case....there is a lady at my SNB group (her name is Jo and she made the teal and sahara lazy girl that is gorgeous) that is an AWESOME crocheter....so I asked her if she would make a pair for my daughter in law.  She was so gracious and said 'Of course'.....so I told her that as soon as I find a pattern that I think is of these booties, I will send it to her.



Now, speaking of my daughter in law and my new grand baby....I started a pom pom blanket for the baby.  The room is pink and green.  Here is a picture of the baby room, my daughter in law in the room, the blanket I started, and the 4D image of my grandaughter, Alexxis Maranda Ramirez.





On my last post, I left you a picture of Dory from "Finding Nemo" saying "Just Keep Knitting, Just Keep Knitting.....etc" and I have been singing that to myself for weeks now.  Apparently, it is pretty catchy because another lady from my SNB group (Knit-Knerd) has started saying it all the time too.  So I leave with you with a picture I got from Facebook and I hope it is something to encourage you to "Just Keep Knitting"




Happy Monday everyone....Just keep knitting!
