An Exciting New Project to Cast On!!

 Hey Everyone!  I hope you are well.  If you follow me on Social Media (I rarely post there), you know I got an exciting text from my niece.....Grace!

So you know what that means!  More Yarn and a New Project.

Here is the yarn and pattern she picked.  Purl Soho has not shipped yet, but they had a big 25% off all yarn sale, so they said they are swamped.  Hopefully it ships soon!

I should be getting the yarn I ordered for a hat for Amira today, so I am hoping to get that hat started and finished quickly.  I think we only have one more cold snap on the way.  Look how cute she was in last Friday's outfit!

I got an OBSCENE amount of gifts all week from Lupe....he really does spoil me too much!

He spoils the dogs too.  Purl is only missing because she is snuggled in a bed in the other room during this pic

Paige, Bizz and Sam went to the rodeo two weeks ago and it looks like they had a great time.

As far as knitting and crocheting.  I worked on my Unicorn Wrap, a shell blanket for a baby and the good vibes baby blanket for my cousin's soon to be born grandchild...

That is all I have.....Have a great week (and stay warm)!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Happy Valentine's Day

 Hey everyone!  How are you?  I am great!  Lupe has been spoiling me all week....and it is not even Valentine's day yet.   

Happy Valentine's Day to you!

Look at all the goodies that Lupe has already given me and it is not Friday yet!

This is some sort of rose in a water globe that I haver never seen before, but I love it.

He also got me some orange roses (fabric) that a coworkers girlfriend made and a Rabbit balloon (he calls me rabbit because I love veggies)

and, he made me the most delicious fideo I have ever had

Then, this past Christmas party with my knitting friends, we decided to fill out forms and pic anonymously a form and then we are that person's "Fiber Fairy".  Well, I have become a complete Fiber Fairy failure.  I sent a package to my person via Amazon and for some reason, by name was on the package along with her name and address....so she immediately knew it was me (I swear I suck sometimes, but I mean well).  Anyway, I tell you all of that to let you know my Fiber Fairy sent me a birthday present.  It is super awesome.  There is tea and tea bags, a pair of socks, lotion, chapstick, and soap.  Thank you Fiber Fairy!

Now for knitting, I finished Antonio's granny square hat

Here he is wearing it

I also finished the blanket for Lupe's soon to be born niece

I started a new "girl" blanket just to have on hand with baby bee Sugarwheel cotton.

And I have been working on my Unicorn Wrap

I also ordered some yarn to make Amira a hat

I have an adorable picture of Amira at Antonio's Golf outing (hitting a bucket of balls....oh, and he made his school's golf team...yeah!):

And Amira with Jaz and Texas <3

My last note is....did you notice that Google maps (not apple maps) has changed the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America?

Okay, have a great week everyone.

Happy Happy Happy Knitting.

Happy Valentine's Day

 Hey everyone! How are you?  I am well.  Happy Valentine's Day to you!

I am a day late to my schedule of posting but I have good reason.  I decided to foster a dog again.  I miss Blue every day....and it was very rewarding to know I had a hand in saving her life....so I went to the shelter on Sunday and I picked a dog and got to bring her home yesterday after she was spayed.  Now....she is pretty thin.....I just wanna warn you for the 2nd picture....but she is as sweet as can be...and if there is one thing I can do....it is fatten up a dog (or myself)!  So I am sure she will be healthier in no time!  Her name is Flower!

I finished a February Dishcloth with The Kitchen Sink Shop...the pattern is called The Linzer Cookie.

I finished the pair of socks I was working on and started the 2nd one for Paige....the color in the completed pair is off....look at last weeks blog to see a truer color.

Here is Paige's 2nd sock

I pulled two cowls I started last year I want to finish and get off my needles...one is done, one will get done.

Erich's girlfriend, Devinne, came for a visit (isn't she the cutest?  Well, her and Paige!)

and I worked on the socks I started with new yarn from Christmas

That is all I have....and a bunch of dog memes/cartoons!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Who am I bloging again only 6 days after my last post?  

I just wanted to share a few things....of course I hope you had an amazing Valentine's Day!

I got some amazing Suri Alpaca yarn from The Farmer's Daughter...feels so great!

I finished one more of Trenton's hats....I still have 2 more to go

I ordered yarn for a new sweater for me and for another Boxy Cape....Elizabeth made a sweater with this yarn and it feels amazing so I had to buy some....it is cotton and wool...feels SOOOOO GOOD!  It is Berroco Vibe

I got my next color for the Monthly Blanket

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

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
