of FO's and other things

Thank goodness Christmas is over! I love Christmas but it is the busiest time of the year, with so many people expecting gifts and for us to drop by. I did finish Grammy's scarf (so soft and cuddly) And I have finished Laurels scarf (mother in law) made out of Chenelle Lion Brand yarn and size 13 needles. Now I am working on a scarf for my little sister. Made out of Lion Brand Homespun (I know ack but that is what she wanted shes jusr lucky that I REALLY love her). Then I will work on the scarf for my mom. I will be so through with scarves for awhile after all of these are done. I am still no where near done with my Irish hiking scarf either. *sigh*
Maybe I will work on the Kitty Pi after I am done with Moms scarf to change things up a bit. Anyway, off to knit more on the scarves!

Knit Bits

Morning all!

I am almost done with my Grammys scarf then I am going to make a couple face cloths for my mom. I think that I will add some bath salts and some bath and body works scented body wash (she adores that stuff). Grammys scarf is so beautiful and cuddly and soft. It is acrylic but sooo soft you would never know it to look at it.

Tonight I will be going to my oldest three kids Christmas program and then dh and I will be heading out to do some Christmas shopping (yea we are just starting :doh: )
It is off to wake up Sophia (yea 10:00 and the child is still sleeping) she was awake a lot last night because she couldn't breath, darn cold, so I decided to let her sleep in.

Enjoy your day everyone!

No knitting here

This is no where in the realm of knitting but an awesome vid from SNL last weekend. They really have gone downhill lately but once in awhile they come up with funny stuff.
This for example...


Now so that I am not totally away from knitting I am knitting a scarf for Grammy. It is made out of schoeller and stahl yarn Grazie in pink. Acrylic (i know i know) but sooooo soft to the touch that you really can not tell! I swear. Beautiful stuff. I will post a pic soon. I have to invest in some batteries first. Started yesterday and almost done! Wooo then back to the Irish Hiking scarf for me. Enjoy the Vid!

The Scarf

Yea I am still working on it. It really is comming along well. So soft and sooooo pretty. But last night I just could not bring myself to knit on it. I think that I needed a small break from it. So I started Kitty pi. Kitty Pi has been a pretty quick knit so far, I am almost ready to switch to the circulars already! Makes me feel a bit better about my speed lol. I am thinking that Gypsy will love it.

I have to finish the scarf now though because if I want to finish Kitty Pi I will have to have the circulars that the scarf is on now. Whew!

In other news...
I have decided to try spinning! I am so excited! It will be after Christmas that I start as I still need a drop spindal and some roving but I have a lady that is willing to teach me once I get the stuff that I need! I am so excited. I would not have started this if it hadn't been for FiberGirl! She offered to send me her spindal when I mentioned that I didn't have one and that most I found were expensive! So after Christmas she will be mailing me hers. Gotta love friends like that!
Anywho time to stop being lazy and get out of these jammies even if they are comfy and ducky cute.
