Continue talking!! Here's the place... A new 99 pages for us to fill up.
that was weird.. I clicked on the link and it said i had to make up a title.. so i did.. but it isn't here.. so i hope it gets deleted...
yeah...something hinky with the link...I clicked on bonnies name...went to her latest topic to get here...and here I am!
oh, by the way...I liked the quilt bon...really pretty
safe travels to nina! can't wait to hear about the new babe
me? I am still working away on my shawl...did a little online shopping for some weatherproof vinyl to monogram my dd's new rainboots for college...and perhaps my new mailbox if enough is left over? we shall see...
I am already starting to think of fall games...looking at my stash and thinking of what colors I want for gloves, cowls, and bootwarmers...
I think I will just order two sets of dpns so I can knit some striped ones at the same time...easier to keep up with the pattern that way as I use up some stash....
my stash is starting to take over my whole house! it is time to ATTACK! .... which means I need to get offline and finish this shawl...only about 28 repeats of the pattern left (sigh)
So now I am thinking I am going to need to edge this shawl.... IF I can find the right color yarn....
But I gotta say... I am loving the way it's turning out...
Hi found you!
For some reason the link doesnt bring you here, so i went to ourresort group and found homechat 8...never mind im here now.
Got a 2 hour early marh as they want me to use up some time in leiu so no dishes for me today!!!!!!! The quilt is beautiful Bonnie, im with nina how can they not love it.
You sound busy as usual osg! Happy travels Nina and Barb!,
Sorry about the link... I think I've fixed it now.
I got the brilliant idea to put a row of small granny squares in my afghan... spent the entire day making 13 of them and weaving in ends. Now I am hand sewing them on. Once they are on I can just pick up and crochet off the opposite side of them. So time consuming: WHY DID I DO THIS?? I spent the whole day and I'm not even sure I really like it. I might have just spent an entire day doing something I am only going to rip out. :evil: MAD at myself.

Just a plain ripple afghan is a great user-upper of stash! You can mix different stuff and it all looks good. But these granny square ripple afghans... fagedaboutit. Wish I did.
I actually HATE to knit afghans...my crew just doesn't appreciate them...they end up dragged to places where they get hay stuck in them (shows, hayrides, etc...) you just can't rehab one after that...or left in someone's car after a game to never be seen again...
they see me knitting all the time, so what's the big deal? "mom can just make another one"
nope, not going there
cry a lot less over a cap or pair of mittens....
Had tiny amounts of sock yarn leftover in my stash.. so I made one baby sock.. so far.. Second sock syndrome has kicked in.. lol... took less than a day..
Not crazy about the bind off.. kinda loosey goosey...
Tried new judy's cast on.. and sweet tomato heel and new bind off.. why not... thought it was small enough to give it a try...
sooooo sweet! I can almost smell that sweet new baby smell!
soooooo
dd wants a chevron patterned headband, with a flower attached....any of you up to designing a pattern? knit or crochet...you know...pattern for dummie kinda pattern?
I can handle the flower, but the headband just has me stumped...she wants one that buttons or ties
its okay if not...I am just mentally blocked on it
yes..except I don't know tunisen (spelling)
