Too Many Yarn Purchases??

 Hey everyone....how have you been?   I have been well.  I am trying to keep more up to date om this blog.....20 days is not ideal, but I am trying.

I have been trying not to buy a lot of yarn this past year or two....but I feel like I have let that slide recently.....so I thought I would share some yarn purchases.

First some cotton.....knit picks dishie...new colors:



I got my monthly blanket yarn


I have been purchasing some sock yarn to hopefully get me off my arse and to start cranking some socks.


Yarn Circus Cute as a bug



I got some Ollivanders from Nicole Mendez on Etsy




Moodswings from The Yarn Mafia



I had to share some pics of Antonio.....plus, he won 1st place at his bike rodeo





I had dinner with my mom, dad and sister.....us 3 ladies holding our drinks up to my daddy!



I was eatting an orgnanic rainbow carrot the other day and noticed it matched my Love Note....which I finished by the way




I made another one of those fuzzy cowls in Pink for Chloe (Paige's friend, Sam's, daughter).



I have been working on Trenton's child's blanket


I am almost done with Abdiel's (Celeste's brother) blanket:


I also started a Highland Cow....Darlene's grandaughter, Kagan, wants one so we are both making one...I will give mine to Jackson as a toy


Speaking of Jackson and Purl....look at this amazing drawing

Lastly, I want to try to make some tunisian crochet kitchen towels and potholders for Paige...the Merci Cloth by Toni Lipsey...it is barely started and these addi click hooks do not slide well (or maybe it is the dishie yarn)....but we will see how it goes



I have really been enjoying a running series on my new treadmill...this trainer's story is truly inspirational (he just completed the Boston Marathon after fighting cancer)


Lastly, I have to share a picture of my gorgeous niece.....Grace



Have a great week everyone!




Happy Happy Happy Knitting!!

Happy Year of the Tiger!

 Happy Chinese New Year.....it is the year of the Tiger, so I am praying the Bengals Win the Super Bowl this weekend!  Go Bengals!!




So a couple of weekends ago, I got to watch two of my grandkids I don't see very often.  Little Mario and Alexxis....these are my step son, Mario's kids.





My other grand kids got a new bunny!


Paige and her friends went out last weekend and they took a great picture....I love these kiddos.




I joined a new gym with Bizzle.....


I have a picture above of Alexxis with Purl....so I have to add a picture of Jackson too....LOL!



As far as knitting, I have been working on my honey cowl with the handspun yarn Melissa made me.







I also pulled out my old (like from 2018) hitofude....I am so close to finishing this.




and I have been working on one of Trenton's hats.



That is all I have for these last couple of weeks......Have a great week y'all!





Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
