Getting Back Into the Knit of Things



Well I have to admit it. I really have become a fair weather non-knitter. The sun comes out and I find things to do other than knit. Oh the humanity! Oh well, I'm still working on my projects for my nieces (you can just see the heart poking out a bit on the illusion knit sweater can't you?). I've also included a pic of Amber's adorable forest colored scarf. I've really got to sit down and make me a loom scarf... it seems such an obvious thing to do with a loom doesn't it, but here I am adrift in a sea of past loom hats... Ah well, what was I saying. Oh yes, and here is Kristi's lovely wrap in shades of ocean blue (correct me if I'm wrong on the name Kristi, I know it's hand dyed and it deserves it's proper moniker.) I really like the beads on this wrap, very much like bubbles on the ocean waves. Well, we had a lot of fun. We even watched You, Me and Dupree... Amber's right, you never do look at butter the same way again, or at Audrey Hepburn for that matter. Ah well, that's why I found you don't play around with the funky cold medina.... Peace out.

It's time to start the music....


Well, in all the excitement of going to first Fridays art galleries I completely forgot my camera (again) but on the upside the artwork was wonderful. Amber worked on head bands, I'm working on a coat for my niece Mickia, and Kristi is still working on that beautiful shawl (which I really need to get a pic of, grrrr). Oh, and there were many muppets involved as the evening went on, many many muppets...
