Good morning everyone

Hello, Stella. We are being pretty quiet right now. I am working on socks - as usual!

Higs, Kather> Hello and Good Morning,

Hi,

Good morning Stella , it is Friday ,,,, Thus i need to do my Shppping list, i seem to have finnished my milk , and some veggies ,,, cat was Nervous this morning and put a nail in one of my fingers , i hate that when it happens ,,, Woven piece embroidery ALMOST finnished ,, had some body over yesterday and she asked to look and had tears in her eyes, very unusual for her...Although i only made my Mother`s Contours she recognized her , was strange to see how it affects others.

Hi all, I'm currently actively working on 2 shawls for the charity for still born babies, 1 3ply white & 1 DK blue, both crochet, a garden sampler for my Dad's 80th b'day. And my little project is a pair of shorts for the teddy bear that lives with one of my colleagues. His name is Basil & I made him some winter clothes to match an outfit of his 4 yr old owner. The little lad now thinks that Basil's too hot in his jumper and trousers and "just wondered" if he'd be more comfortable in shorts. So .... blue cotton shorts and T-shirt appearing from my hook. After all Basil is currently naked and we can't have that, can we? Love & higs Christine PS, please note I haven't mentioned the several (?!) projects I'm not currently working "actively" on!!

LOL Thanks, Mirjam.

Right, if Katherine's Sock President let's have suggestions for the rest of the Cabinet: I vote for Nora as Home Secretary for a start Love & higs Christine

Hi all, More soakers for gbaby, I sold a baby sweater today and the lady said she would like one in yellow for a friends baby that they don't want to know ahead if its a boy or girl. One in blue for a friend that knows she is having a boy. Yellow one is started, and dug out of stash some blue for next one. so I have 3 sets of #8 needles with wip on them and one set waiting. Gota go knit! :) Jenny

Not much on the needles at the moment. I do have a pair of socks that I was working on in Las Vegas when I lost a needle - have to get another now. Finished off a pair of purple and gold (local university team colors) baby socks last night and am putting finishing touches on a summer top. I just got some yellow Svale (Dale summer yarn) to make a top with - have a pattern I think I will use. I have several projects ready to go but not on the needles. This month I actually finished off a few things. hotpads and dish cloths for DS#1 who just moved into a new apartment, the new top mentioned above, a meadowflowers shawl for an auction, socks for me as well as those baby socks, and two squares that I need to block and send off for the 6X6 exchange. I get to start new projects -- probably the Svale top and at least one pair of socks - maybe some for DH this time.
