National Ice Cream Day!

Did you guys know that yesterday was national Ice Cream Day?  Well it was...and trust me....I ate enough ice cream for all of us!  LOL!

I am going to jump into the knitting....what have you been working on?  I have been working a little here and there on my Rosen Bridge....it is getting pretty long and I am getting pretty tired of it.  I have surpassed my required 600 yards, but I am going to go a little farther and then bind off.  I should make it in plenty of time for Camp Loopy.!


 Then, I started 2 new things.....I know, I know...I have sooooooo many things on the needles, but I really wanted to start a Sandbank Shawl, I realized I was never going to finish my 2nd Hypernova, and it is not really the kind of shawl shape I like to wear....so I ripped it out and started Sandbank with the same yarn.....Miss Babs Katahdin in the Biker Chick Colorway!  So I got rid of one project and added one project.....all is still balanced....

Ripped this:



To start this:




I even talked Darlene into joining me.....and she made us new bag sets just for the project (no, I do not have too many bags!)  Thank you Darlene!  You are awesome!  I love the little snails on this bag!



Then, do you remember the "bed socks" I made for Paige and just finished them last week....and how I said I need to make some for Antonio?  Well, I did......but I started and finished yesterday....so the world is still balanced....I still have the same number of projects on the needles.

Now, aren't these cute?  I think once I get a picture of them on his feet, they will look better!  I just love this sock monkey yarn!



The only other thing I worked on this week were some socks for a HiyaHiya KAL that I started back in June....I really need to get on the ball with these....but I do love the Orange color and the patterning.



I worked on the above socks at "Hot Rod Night" on Saturday.  Jaime has a 1972 Scamp that we went out there in.....but first, he had to wash it.....



Then, the speedometer does not work in it....so I set up my iPhone as the speedometer.....I told him he is the only person to have a 1972 vehicle with a digital speedometer....LOL!



The last thing I have is stash enhancements...You already saw my awesome bag set above......but I also needed some more tpins and some extra magnets......so I placed a small order for some from WEBS......



and, Darlene was selling her Bosworth Spindle so I bought it from her....I have not tried it yet, but I think I am really going to like it!




Well, it does not seem like much...but that is really all I have....I hope you all have a fantastic week!




Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
