Hot water bottles

I got on a hot water bottle kick and made covers for three bottles. The grey knitted one is for Stephanie, the green knitted one is for Kathy and the leopard fleece one is for Di. I really had fun doing this project hope they enjoy them.

Visit North

I had planned a visit north to take my mom to the specialist in Champaign,Il when the weather looked like it was going to get worse so I took off a day early on Saturday and spent the day with Kathy and Crissy. I took some baby stuff for the girls that I had been working on and they were very pleased with the projects. They have started a tote to keep all the baby's things in. The yoyo monkey was a big success.

New sweater project

I bought the yarn holder in Maryland when we were visiting Charlie and Jo at Knoxtoberfest. I spent a Tuesday morning with the knitters at The knitters nest in Eldersburg, Maryland.

Bella's sweater

What to work on first

I have been knitting a sweater for Bella and decided to make her a scarf to go with the sweater. The only problem is I dont like this yarn knit into a scarf. I have tried four patterns already and been on ravelry for hours hunting for the perfect patter. Yuk So I have decided to scrap the idea of a scarf for now and started another sweater in purple. Very pretty. I also need to get to the store to find fabric to finish Missy's quilt I brought home at Christmas.
