Can I please have my hour back?

Hey everyone.....Springing forward always gets me!  I love the fall when we "Fall Back", but this loss of an hour always feels like so much more than an hour.  In addition, my spring allergies are when my allergies are the worst!  I have a raw nose and no matter how many meds I take, my nose never stops running.  Okay....I will stop being a whiney baby now and get on with it.


I am moving forward with lots of finished things....I finished 2 hats.  One was a new start and one wa a year old.....so yea to me.  After finishing the unicorn wrap last week, I had a lot of yarn left over and made a hat with it.



 I also finished this colorwork hat that I started on my 52nd birthday (last year)!



I am also plugging away on 2 baby girl blankets.  One for my cousin's soon to be born granddaughter and one for an "extra" to have available when a new baby is due.






I also worked on my niece's sweater.  I asked my sister to try it on for me to make sure it looked okay.  My niece is a little smaller than my sister, but I still think it will still look great on her.  I sent my niece a pic and she likes it!  yeah!




I got my nails done for St Patty's day.....I love them




I also plan on making more granny square blankets (I have really been digging crocheting lately) so I got this board to help keep themthe same shape.  Plus, I want to make the Battenberg blanket, and while that is not crochet, it is squares and I think this board will help!  I really like it!



Lupe noticed the water pump on our car was leaking so we needed to get it replaced.  His nephew does mechanic works, so we asked him to come over to work on it and his niece and some of their kids came over too.  I ordered a bunch of pizza and soda and it was so fabulous having them over....and I did not get one pic (excpet of the car being worked on) but I loved having them over.





Lupe's Niece's Niece (Nia is her name) really loved my crocheting and saw Lupe's 49ers blanket and asked for one in pink and purple....so I ordered some yarn and I cannot wait to make this for her.




Lastly, it was my dad's 88th birthday this past Friday....so we had dinner at my sister's house last night.  It was a fabulous night!  My family is so beautiful!  I am so blessed!!










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






Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Back on Track

 Hey everyone.....I was trying to get back on track with posting on Monday or Tuesday....but here it is Wednesday, but I tried.


I finished the Unicorn Wrap!





I also finished the Playstation cover I made Lupe for his PS5 Pro.  The color is blown out, but it is all cotton and looks good on the gaming system




That is about all I have in the way of knitting....but I did decide I wanted to add a cabinet to my yarn room to put the stuff that never fit in other places in.  I found this on Marketplace.  I bought it from a lady that was getting it out of her craft room....she cross stitches.





I will have to show ya'll when I am done setting it up.


That is all I really have this week....Look at what a rough life Jackson has and poor Flower is just begging Daddy for attention!





Have a great week yall!!



Happy Happy Knitting!!!
