That Sock I Started a Year Ago....

Yeah, here it is........now I've got to start the other one!!

I asked a good friend the other day if she had checked out my blog. She said, "Like I really care about your knitting??" Gee, thanks! I'm sure glad YOU don't feel that way! And I care about YOUR knitting too!! I didn't bother telling her that I had a pie on this. I'm not going to give her a piece of pie, that's for sure!!

Pie!

Do you see that piece of pie that is "missing"?? It isn't really missing, it's yours, actually. Why don't you come over for pie & ice cream?? You bring the ice cream, cuz I made the pie!! I picked the blackberries & Sockergirl's Mom picked the blueberries.

The Auction!!

Everything sold! In fact, who bought my recycled silk net market bag??? My company's CEO!! How about that!! $25

Someone bought my felted bag. $30

Someone bought my knitting lessons too!! Check this out................$45!!!

So that means in someway I was able to contribute $100 to the auction. Pretty cool, eh??

Been Knitting on the Bus

I finished my felted bag. It is in the auction as of yesterday with the other market bag & my knitting lessons. I didn't see any bids on any of my stuff. I'll let you know next week.

I had tried knitting on the bus when I first was going downtown & it wasn't really working for me, so I was reading. But I have been trying again & it seems to be working better. Doing that enabled me to finish this in time for the auction.

Oh.......and I did my deck on Monday. Aren't you proud of me?? So now I don't have to mention that for another 2 years.................

I'm Still Here & Even Knitting!

Howdy!!

So what is new?? I'm a "working fool". I just heard that phrase from a good friend today & figured that's the same club I'm in. It sure leaves no time for blogging. But, it doesn't seem that any of you missed me. I think my fan base is shrinking!! HA!!

Let's see.........ok, first let me show you one of the sachets that I made. I didn't take a picture of both of them & they are gone now.














My good ole' pooch got attacked in the off leash dog park a couple of months ago. Her bite wound got infected, so I had to take her in to emergency. She had to have light surgery to drain her abcess. This is what she looked like when we came home. This is so she wouldn't scratch her incision where the stitches were. She's fine now though. Guess who won't be going back to the dog park?? It's a shame, we had so much fun there.

I haven't touched the tank top that I mentioned last time I blogged. I guess I'll be late on that one. No picture yet.

We are having a charity auction at work next Friday. I'm going to donate my recycled silk market bag. I'm also going to auction a 2 hour knitting lesson. You think I'll have any takers?? And I also will auction a felted tote bag. I'm almost done, but here is what it looked like a couple days ago.

It looks way better today.

Hopefully I will take the "after" pictures.

Do you remember last year I said that I was going to stain my deck?? Well, I never did. I'm saying that right now too. But, it's raining. I am taking Monday off work. Maybe I'll do it on Monday?? Maybe I'll get back to my tank top?? Or the other socks that have been on needles for a year??

Please don't give up on me. Please keep visiting me.
