Happy St. Patrick’s Day Knitting

Happy St. Patrick’s Day ! 
What a perfect St. Patty’s day here at the beach… rain, fog and wind.  But that’s ok with me, I spent it knitting, with a few interruptions!  The dogs thought they needed to go outside every 30 minutes, I guess because we had lots of ducks landing in their back yard.

ONE YEAR ! ! ! ! !

It’s my 1 year Knitting Anniversary!!!!!

i can’t make up my mind…

One of the baskets has a gift certificate for a 30 minute massage and lots of chocolate things.  Like: Chocolate Mousse Lip Balm, Double Chocolate Truffle Hot Chocolate mix, Hazelnut Truffle Hot Chocolate mix, Chocolate Raspberry Brownies Mix [...]

One more sock…

Well I did it I completed one of my mom’s birthday socks! 
I hope to have these done next week. So I can get them in the mail to her.  They are so soft and light weight, and it looks like I might even have enough left over to make some little sockies too!
I haven’t been knitting as [...]
