Hi Mom

Some pics from Thanksgiving Day!
The mirror is now clean.

Scarf length?

Hi Mom

here is the scarf so far-- I could likely knit an inch or two more with this ball of yarn. What do you think of the length?

The new jeans

HI mom

I have posted front and back views of the jeans. Please give your honest opinion of how you think that they look.

GUSSIE UP

Hi Mom-

Picks of me heading off to party (purple shirt) and to Friday's Freshman convocation (please pardon dirty mirror).

Lacy Bonnet Almost done!

Hi Mom

I cast off on this last night and did some initial seaming which I will finish today, I hope. Then I will practice picking up and knitting before I pick up and knit 3 rows on the base of the bonnet.

Love and hugs!

The Lacy Bonnet

Here is what I have done so far. It likes to curl up, so I am holding it down at the edges.
And this is another shot, a bit closer up to show detail.

The Lacy Bonnet

Hi mom

Here are several pics of the lacy bonnet I was talking about, and that I plan on knitting for the 'new addition.'

Table with decor and vinny on my yarn

Hi mom

Here is a pic of my table with decor, and one of Vinny resting his head on the yarn I used in Bryan's scarf

scarf for her and scarf for him

Here are the scarves

Scarf for "what's his name?"

HI Mom

Here is the scarf I'd like to knit for you know who. This scarf is also modified the way I'd do it-- narrower than what the pattern calls for.

What do you think of it?

Debra's Scarf

Here is what I have done so far. Not much, but that is because of my push to get the Harry Potter one done and out of my hair and off my lap.

What I look like

This way you can find me at baggage claim when I arrive at the airport (not necessarily in these clothes, mind you!)

Harry potter scarf

Hi Mom--

as of this post, I am almost done with round 9 (there are 13 total). I think it needs to be re-named the never ending scarf.

THE NEW TABLE

Enough said. My first dinner at and on the table, and a wide shot of the table. The floor and table aren't crooked, but my photo is.

My knittng quiz results

What Kind of Knitter Are You?

You appear to be a Knitting Adventurer. You are through those knitting growing pains and feeling more adventurous. You can follow a standard pattern if it's not too complicated and know where to go to get help. Maybe you've started to experiment with different fibers and you might be eyeing a book with a cool technique you've never tried. Perhaps you prefer to stick to other people's patterns but you are trying to challenge yourself more. Regardless of your preference, you are continually trying to grow as a knitter, and as well you should since your non-knitting friends are probably dropping some serious hints, these days.http://marniemaclean.com

One done one to go

I have two photos. One is a before shot of the pillow and the other is the "after" photo. I must say, I prefer the after. It was somewhat tricky stuffing the pillow into its new home. The designer basically made the envelope 1 whole inch shorter -- a 13 by 13 -- and you can see on the 'after' picture how it has 'pulled in' on the sides, but I really like it.
