FINISHED AT LAST



This first picture is the sock that I am working on for my hubby. The yarn is "Happy Feet" but I am not sure of the color. It is reddish and if you click on the picture it brings the colors up much nicer. My husband is anxious for me to finish the socks as he wears them to work over his regular socks and he says they keep his feet real warm ,especially when he has to go outside.


Now this sweater is just some scrap yarn that I had laying around and I was getting tired of the socks so I decided to make something different. I started out with the idea that I would do just a plain simple stocking knit sweater but, when I had the back and front done realized that I would not have enough for the sleeves and neck. I went back to my yarn stash and found some white and this is the end result.
My last project is my baby quilt. I am very pleased with the way it turned out. I don't know if you can see the print but it has little teddy bears. I just fell in love with the material and found the matching green so here we are finished up and ready to be wrapped. This is going to be for my "first" great grandchild.
I was home all day today waiting for the Direct TV folks to arrive to straighten out my TV. The dang thing kept freezing up on us and I could not TEVO anything which upset me as I tape my soap opera every day. Don't you know I missed the past three days.....and that doesn't make for a happy Carol. While I waited I decided to go through more of my stash and I think my next project (along with my hubbys second sock) will be a scarf. If it looks half way decent I will post a picture in a few days.

I am also waiting for the mailman to bring me a package. When it arrives I will post a picture..Until then Happy Knitting.

I read your comment on my blog. You two are getting very demanding in your old age.
