Some New Stuff

 Hey yall!  I have been busy knitting....and starting a few new things....I know, I know...I have a million wips....but everyone needs a new project now and then.


First, the Purled in Texas Podcast is doing a KAL where you use an OLD pattern you have had in your library/queue since before 2022.... I have had a raglan pattern in my library since August 2021....so I am going to make it with some Comfy yarn I have.






I also got my February Yarn for my shawl club....



My dad's Birthday is tomorrow (he will be 86) so we went to my sister's yesterday and had paella....it was DELICIOUS!





The dogs and I went for a walk and look at this cute sticker on the walkway....







Sorry Flower is getting more camera time right now...but she is just too cute!


I went bowling with Kody, Paige and Antonio....and I did not get a single picture of us...but I got a picture of the first game.....and believe it or not...I won the 2nd game, but did not get a picture of the scoreboard.....yikes!



I reblocked some socks for my sister....they shrunk and needed to be restretched.



and lastly, I decided to start a blanket with my other colors I am getting.  I did not want to do another knit blanket in the quilty pattern (that looks like a quilt), and I did not want to make the crochet blanket.....so I just wanted to do a simple fade blanket with garter stich and an I cord cast on....but I really suck at casting on with the icord method....look at how LOOSE this first row is.....



so I redid it where I make the whole I cord first and then pick up stitches....looks so much better...but about 14 rows of knitted had to be frogged.





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





Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
