Its Beginning to look a lot like.....Halloween!!!

 Hey everyone....How are you?  I think last week I showed you some Halloween Yarn I got and I decided to start a granny square blanket....I used black as the joining color.  I know it does not look like much.....but it was a lot of work for me and I am in love so far!!!

Lupe had a parole class last week and there was a beautiful rainbow

My amazing friend, Paulette, from Canada sent the cutest outfit for Amira

Lupe made me delicious (but proabably not the healthiest) carnitas with beans and a baked potato (I asked for avocado as well).....it was soooooo good!

It is also time for my annual test knit for the lovely Brigit in The Netherlands and her Advent Stole....as you know this is top secret till December, but I can share that I have knit 49 grams so far...I started with 113 grams and am down to 64 so far....I am using a gorgeous yellow that is super hard to photograph!

Well, I think that is all I have.....Have a great week!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Another FO?

 Look.....Can it be true?  I have another FO!!  LOL!

It is just my socks for Lupe that were super close to being done.....

I got some yarn.....I got the monthly yarn from Jimmy Beans Wool

And I ordered some Halloween color yarn.  It is from Joanns.  It is Big Twist in the colorway Jack O Lantern.

I want to make a Granny Square blanket and could not figure out which Granny Square I liked best......so I asked Lupe and Darlene and they both like the one on the right.   I only got 6 skeins of this yarn so I am hoping that will be enough for a blanket.  My first skein got me almost 9 squares (I had to use a little of second skein to finish).

That is all I have.....Have a great week!!

I have an FO!!!!!!!

 Hey guys, how are you??  Can yall belive I have an FO???  Here it is (my No Frills Cardigan):

It goes a little below my booty!

Also......I am addicted to greek salad's with Salmon.  Lupe and I went to Sea Island last week because his brother works there and he wanted to go see his brother, Manuel (which I did not get a pic of).  I got a salad with Salmon, and here it is (I did not eat the hush puppies....Lupe did).

This salad was soooooooo good, that I not only inhaled it, but I was making noises as I ate it because it was soooooo good.

So....Lupe (being the amazing man he is), recreated it for me.  I have had 5 of these salads since:

They are sooooooooooo good!

I am also kinda close to finishing some fingering weight socks for Lupe.  These are toe up with a Fleegle Heel (not my fave).

Here are the two most beautiful girls in the world!

That is pretty much all I have.  I hope to work on my monthly blanket and Lupe's blanket this week!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Happy Labor Day!

 Hey everyone....sorry it has been 2 weeks since I posted, but life got in the way!

It is Labor day.....I hope you are having a great one!

I got some new yarn.  I got some new bernat blanket to make my love a blanket...He loves the 49ers, so while it looks a little like the german flag, it is for the 49ers

And here is the man himself....finally home!

I also made him some socks!

Here is some yarn that is wool and cotton for either a sweater or a shawl

I got to see Celeste play a volley ball game and I got a new Ninja Creami to make protien ice cream

That is all I really have.  Have a great week!  See ya next week!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
