Another dishcloth


I want to wish my little girl Elizabeth Happy First Birthday today. I can't believe she's one already. Seems just last week even last night I had her. They grow up so fast. When I get the kids Christmas picture done next week I will post that when it comes in. Everyone is getting very big, very quick. Well here we are with another dishcloth. It's from the monthly dishcloth knit-a-long I belong to. It's a pointsetta. It was the first time I did a bobble. Wasn't as hard as I thought. Took at least three days to figure out what it was. Came out really nice.

Mason-Dixon ballband


I absolutely love this pattern. So easy yet looks so hard. I brought some of my dishcloths to my knitting group that meets that the local library (nice bunch of ladies) and one new woman kept telling me how lovely they were and what a talented knitter I was. Kind of made me feel proud. I didn't think I was all that good but she made me feel that way. Well here's a picture of the latest creation. I used Pe Peaches n' Cream Faded Glory and Ecru.

Yes I am still here

Hello. Yes I am still here. I haven't posted in a month but have been very busy. I finished five out of the six dishcloths I am knitting for Christopher and Nicholas' teacher for Christmas. I am also going to give a kitchen soap to go with them. I finished Elizabeth's sweater (well I have to block it and then seam it) and I finished a felted box but not yet felted. It was fairly easy. Once I sat down and knit it. Probably only took me four days to do the big one (it's from the Mason-Dixon book). I think I will do some for my mom for Christmas too. She's redoing a room in her house and I think they will look nice in there. Just have to buy my yarn for it. Oh and here's my latest dishcloth from the monthly dishcloth knit-a-long. It's a turkey.



Oh yeah. My Elizabeth is going to be a year old in a week. She's starting to cruize and yesterday started to stand up in the middle of the room for about 10 seconds. She's getting so big so fast. Christopher and Nicholas are 1/2 way through their school year. Have conferences next week. Christopher received his report card on Thursday, he did very well. Nicholas being in Kindergarten doesn't get a report card until January I think. Oh well. Talk to you soon. As soon as I get pictures of my projects I will post them.

Happy Knitting.
