She is FINALLY here!

 Amira Lee Ramirez Quiroz made her grand entrance into the world May 8th, 2024 at 12:32 pm!











She is so precious and cute!  We are all completely in love with her!


My nephew's fiance gratuated from UT this past weekend....and it was a bang.  Remember, most of these young adults were graduating High School at the height of COVID, so many did not have proms or graduations.....so it was pretty special!  Congrats Leilani!



On the knitting front, I started a new blanket that Darlene and I are going going to make.  We have the Lakehouse retreat coming up this weekend (May 17th) and she wants me to start her blanket, so I wanted to start mine so I would know what to expect when I start hers. 



I got some new yarn from Must Stash I just could not pass up



I also finished one block for the April monthly blanket and started the second block



and I finished the sleeves on the No Frills Cardigan....now just the body!



Have a great week!




Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

My granddaughter is more stubborn than my daughter...

 Hey.....you guessed it....still no granddaughter....and Paige is not very happy about it.


I got my yarn for my Shawl Club for April:





I also finished a hat for Antonio......about 2 1/2 years after I started it.....WOW!  The crazy thing is it only took me like 3 days to finish it....I should have finished it a long time ago.



And.....I worked on the No Frills Cardigan.  I really love this yarn and how it is knitting up.  I finished one sleeve and am 1/2 way done on 2nd sleeve.



That is really all I have.....I know I say this all the time, but I really want to work through some old wips....we will see how that goes.


So.....if you have never been to Texas.....a little perspective of how big it is:





Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
