It's still Wednesday, right?

Umm, so WIP Wednesday didn't really happen as planned, but here is my crafty update for the week.



I also have been having a great time at the Farmer's Market. Lots of my stuff has sold, and the baking we're doing will likely break even for us this next week! Go us!

Another FO

These are the golf club covers I made for my Mom for Christmas this year. Very fun pattern I adapted from the Lion Brand Website for golf club covers. They're made with Caron Soft Brights.

Sick Trees



So I had a wonderful landscaper do my front lawn, but unfortunately a couple of trees are now sick. I'm posting pictures of them here so I can easily send them to him.

WIP Wednesday!

So to help me keep this a little more of a craft blog, I am going to attempt to post a WIP Wednesday each week. Hey, a couple of weeks ago I did post on that vest i'm making, right?

So this week's edition of WIP wednesday involves a pair of socks I had cast on and done 6 rows, in preparation for the Vegas Trip we just got back from with my in-laws. It was a fantastic time, I'll post a link to our pictures later.

I really like the Crusoe pattern with the Magic Stripes Lion Brand yarn. It isn't as noticeable as I thought it would be, but it adds a nice texture to the stripes.



Oh, and have I mentioned how much I LOVE my new camera?

Clean Kitchen!

So, simply because I am proud of my cleaning achievements, and for proof to my family that I can keep something clean, here is a picture of my kitchen. It recently underwent inspection so that my friend Ana and I can make healthy cookies and such and sell them at the local Farmer's Market, and the woman said it passed with flying colors, although for legal reasons on the report she had to indicate it had "No significant objectionable conditions noted on this date"

Ohhh, here's the Knitting!

So this is a picture of the vest I'm currently working on. It's enjoyable, but taking a LOOOONG time. It is almost making me wish I had a knitting machine! But I'm sure I'll love it when it's felted down. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to wear it until fall with the way weather is going, but it'll still be a worthwile piece. Oh, and those differently colored yarns? Those are my way of counting 20 rows at a time. And I need to get to 106 rows. I'm almost there, then I get to divide for the sleeves. I love this yarn, and can't wait to see what type of fabric it ends up looking like!

What is the title on this blog?

Yeah, yeah, this is supposed to be a crafting blog. Well, I just got a cool new digital camera and I'm having fun taking pictures.

Here is the final picture with skychairs hanging and backyard cleaned up, of our covered porch. I am VERY happy with how it turned out.
