Happy Memorial Day

 Hi Dear Blog Readers...

Happy Memorial Day,.  The weather was beautiful today.  It has been rainy and cold and windy all week. I'm not sure that I walked more than 3 days.

This week I finally  wore the Golden Assam sweater I finished last year. The sweater is so itchy I had to find a shirt that would cover every part of me!  Ha!

Finished up the Piitu mittens.  Lovely little pattern.

Size 3 needle. Hedgehog Fiber Skinny Singles

Lots of yarn left over so I started a scarf to use it up, and use up other sock yarns in the process.  Cast on 300 stitches.  I'm not doing the rows in any particular number. Some colors may be 6 rows, some 4, some 10...who knows!

I restarted the Alhambra sweater. Reminder I ripped it out a while back because the fit was just not going to be right, and the stitch count was off.  I am being extra extra careful counting this time.


 Ruth started a pretty cowl. Cité cowl by Anne Hanson. She has knit it before. The yarn is Hedge Hog fibers merino  and mohair mixed.

And..tada!  She finished up her beautiful Community Cardi.  Just waiting for buttons. Soooo nice!

Martha started a baby sweater for her daughter's friend who is having a little girl.  Baby Shrug by Debbie Bliss.  The yarn is   leftover Shirstycat yarn, and she is  using two strands at once


 In other news:

Picture of lasagna Joey made last week...yummmm

Tiffany took the boys to a farm market that had pony rides on Saturday.

I would love to know what Jayce is thinking right now.

Joey took the kids for a tractor ride. 

Jayce had a death grip on the corn bread.  LOL
Even Jack got in on the fun!

Mason say cheese...who else does it with such gusto!


 Joe and I worked hard all day today planting flowers into pots.   It looks nice.  But we are both exhausted.  Have a good week dear blog readers..back to work tomorrow!

That sweater may be itchy but what a great fit and a lovely garment. Maybe when the weather is cold it won't feel so itchy? All the knitting looks nice. I'm about to rip out a shawl and go back to a familiar pattern.
