Decided to put the cap w/ bow hat aside. Yesterday i completed a cupcake hat . I made it w/ chocolate cake w/ vanilla icing. i still have to put on the cherry on top pom-pom and the chocolate sprinkles. yum lol. It's for my 4 year old niece. I'm planning on making one for valorey, our friend's daughter Akela, and Geoff's cousin's daughter Kiayrah. I always talk myself into doing this shit LOL.

Also working on Lady . Finally i started this after eyeing it a year ago. I'm knitting it on 5 dpns size 8. I got about 11 rows into it, w/o screwing up , yah. It's been a while since i've done cables, but i'm getting used to it again. :)

So much stuff to do, not enough time...LOL.

My hubby had the best idea last night. Don't know if this was thought of already. I had to make a double-pointed needle, i had four but needed five. and all i had was a size 10.5 dowel rod, which needed to be an 8. So i was sanding away , and getting no where. Then Geoff said, to get his cordless drill. SO he put the needle in the drill, like a drill bit, and held the sandpaper to around it, and in about 5 minutes i had my needle! Yeah!

"See i have good ideas." he said. ;)

Here are a pair of blue leopard armwarmers that i made for a swap (shhhh!). I stenciled a swallow on each one, and oulined it in red thread. i think they look pretty awesome. And the cool thing is, that because i stenciled the swallows on w/ marker, the swallows look like their black leopard print (see second photo).

There's no decreasing, and you have to crochet in elastic, so we'll see how it goes, so far i'm on "Work even until length is 5 inches from ring.". I'm using acrylic grey yarn w/ pink stripes, hopefully lol. using a size F hook.

The viewing and funeral are over. So many people loved him, if only he knew. So much sadness. My husband really misses him....so much crying. Everyone really misses him.

God if only he fucking knew how much he was loved......

It just fucking sucks!

My brother-in-law died. His name was Joey, and he was 26 years old. He had a 4 year old daughter, the same age as my son. It hasn't totally hit me yet, that he's gone. We all just saw him on Saturday, for a birthday party....


Life is so short...

You are Mohair
You are Mohair.
You are a warm and fuzzy type who works well with
others, doing your share without being too
weighty. You can be stubborn and absolutely
refuse to change your position once it is set,
but that's okay since you are good at covering
up your mistakes.


What kind of yarn are you?
