Wow great day !!!

Well not a bad day. I had my first sock knitting lesson today. Carl at Gate City Yarn taught the class. I meet to very nice women Hedi, and angela. Carl taught the class. Carl is a great guy. So patient and very good at showing you how to knit. He brought in sock that he has knit to show us and they are great. I had to cast on twice before I got it right but I did manage to cast on and get started. I worked a row or two and then dropped a stitch. Carl found the dropped stitched stitch and then got me back on he right track. The time in the class went by very fast and I can't wait until next Saturday. I made it back to Asheboro and went by the Chili cook off but I think since I did not make it until around 5;00 I missed a lot. I did not get to taste but 1 one chili. I hope they have the event again next year and I can be there at the start. I could not hang with staying until 10:00 to see who won the raffle. I have a homework assignment to knit 6 or 7 inches on my sock and the heel flap. So I am working on my sock tonight and watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone, and of course blogging. I am posting a picture of the first few stitches on my sock. I love the color. I am using Trekking hand art in Tong it is a wool blend. Needles Addi size 1 I think 2.50 mm. Have a great rest of the weekend and craft on!

What a day, what a day

I am so glad it is Friday and the weekend it has been a long week and I only worked 4 days. I am so ready for the weekend. I have a fun filled day ahead tomorrow. The sock class I signed up for starts tomorrow from 2 to 4 and then I plan to go check out the Asheboro's first Chili Cook off! It seems like it will be a big and fun event and I hope it is a success and continues every year. Since it runs from 1-10 pm I will have a lot of time to look around and enjoy the event. I hope you can buy a raffle ticket tomorrow I did not buy one ahead of the event. I hope they don't decide the winner before I get to the event. I need to get up one morning early enough to go by the bagel shop. I enjoy bagels and use to go buy the first bagel shop we had in Asheboro and was disappointed when the shop went out of business. I am working a new dishcloth from Leisure Arts Publication, Trendy Knit Dishcloths, by Evelyn A. Clark. I am working #2 Bubbles Border, in what I think is Rainbow Bright Lily Surgar ' n Cream. Craft on! I plan to take pictures of the knitting class and the Chili Cook off to post later this weekend. I am posting the first few rows of the Bubbles Border dishcloth.

Humday finish

Well its the middle of the week and I finished my Linked Hearts dishcloth. Lily Sugar 'n Cream cotton, color Grape, pattern leisure arts #3253 dishcloths from the heart. What to do what to do, this weekend I hope my sock knitting class will start and also here in Asheboro some of the the local business owner's bring the first ever Chili Cook-Off. I think it promises to a pretty big event. The article in the Courier-Tribune states more than 30 have entered locals and I hear as far away as Texas and New York. First Prize is $1500.00 , 2nd $1000.00, and 3rd $500.00(the registration fee is $50.00 or proceeds from the sale of 15 raffle tickets, plus the stubs) Today is the final day to register. Raffle tickets on sale for $10.00 first prize is mortgage payments of up to $1000.00 for a year! if you don't have a mortgage $8000.00 cash prize! other prizes a 50 in plasma tv, and a golf package at Tot Hill Farm. I think the only big event that happens in Asheboro every year is the Fall Festival. Other vendor's and arts, crafts. Rain or shine 1-10 pm. You can also sample contestants chili. A big shocker is the Beer Garden! I am sure an editorial will be in the paper about the beer garden.

Wow I have another day off work

I have spent the weekend doing nothing but watching tv, sleeping and a little knitting. I started the Linked hearts dishcloth from #3253 Leisure Arts dishcloths for the heart. Using Lily sugar 'n cream in grape. So happy that I get an extra day off work. At the end of the month I might feel different. I plan to make myself work in the yard tomorrow. Craft on and happy knitting and crochet.

Large Heart

Well it's Good Friday and the office was closed today. I spent most of the day in bed. I got up watched t.v and finished up my dishcloth. Large Heart from #3253 Leisure Arts dishcloths From The Heart. I should have spent the morning raking leaves, by the time I pulled my self together it started raining. Well maybe tomorrow or Monday since I took the day off on Monday I will get the leaves to the end of the road. Craft on!. Have a great weekend.

Sunny day!

Well after I finally got out of bed. I got dressed and spent some time in the yard picking up sticks and branches. I raked some leaves. I must say having a yard is to much work. I plan to get up tomorrow and plant a few vegetable seeds to put in the garden. I hope my brother in law will be able to till my garden spot by the first weekend in May. I have a mystery plant growing in a container , my Mother thinks it is garlic, but I don't remember planting garlic in the container. It looks great and it does smell like garlic. We shall see what happens. I cleaned the weeds and leaves away from the deck and I my daisies, black eyed Susan, and lilies are coming back. I have a four day work week starting on Monday. Still working the Large Heart dishcloth, from Leisure Arts dishcloths from the heart #3253. So far so good with the dishcloth. The night is long and lonely. Craft on!

April

Well it is April Fool's day. The first day of April. I had a long hard day. I finished another dishcloth today and cast on a dishcloth. I finished Nine Hearts from Leisure Arts #3253 dishcloths from the hearts by Evelyn A. Clark. I use Lily Sugar' N Cream , Hot Green. I cast on Large Heart from the same book . Only 2 days to go for the work week. Craft on!!

BETA GAMMA SIGMA

Friday night my Mother, Aunt, Uncle, Cousin, and I attend an Induction Ceremony and Banquet at Winston-Salem State University. It was for the School of Business & Economics. It is an honor society that service Business Programs accredited by AASB international. My daughter was inducted and received was the recipient of the Blue & Gold cord. Her friend Ginnerfra Daniels who served as the Vice President also was a recipient of the Blue & Gold cord. The dinner music and speaker was wonderful and we had a great time. I have a picture but it is not very good a little dark. Spent most of the day yesterday working on my bedroom it really needs a good cleaning. I discovered over the last 2 weekends that I have a lot of cotton yarn. Most of it scrap yarn from previous dishcloths. Some new skeins and some very large skeins from mill ends. Lot's of sugar 'n cream, Peaches & creme, Bernat and, a little I love this cotton. Some of the balls are to small for a dishcloth. So I am not sure what kind of project I can do with all these little balls. Maybe a grocery bag. If I can find an easy pattern. Well still no word on when the sock class will start. I hope soon. Sock knitting is one of my goals for the year, along with circular needles, and cables.

Sick

Well I spent the whole glorious weekend sick with a cold or allergies and may I just say i would still rather be at home on the weekend sick than working. I am thankful and happy that I still have employment and I hope it continues to remain that way unless I win the lottery. I live for the weekend. Since my last post on Tuesday I did not get in a lot of knitting or reading because Kendra was here until Thursday morning and my Sister and her family came over on Wednesday so to much going on to knit, or read. Well on Thursday night I started sneezing and feeling a little funny by Friday morning I felt very bad and left work at 12:00 came home spent most of the day in bed. Repeat on Saturday most of the day in bed and then in front of the TV, on the Internet, knitting, and reading. I love clean house marathon's. I will be glad when Neeice Nash returns. I really like her a lot. So I finished up another dishcloth today that I started earlier in the week. #6 Cascading Hearts, #3253 Leisure Arts dishcloths From The Heart, by Evelyn A. Clark. I used 191 Peppermint Peaches & Creme 100% cotton. I think it turned out pretty good.

St Patrick's Day

Well a pretty good day today it's St. Patrick's Day, and today was the Kiwanis Annual Pancake Day!!! My daughter and I have attended Pancake day since she was 2 or 3 years old. I remember after the first time we went she would ask me everyday if we could go eat pancakes. In honor of St. Patrick's Day I spent some of my weekend knitting a Shamrock dishcloth. Lily Sugar ' n Cream cotton yarn, color Emerald Green. Very easy pattern found at www.knittingknonsense.com/shamrockcloth/html . Three more days until the weekend. I recast last night the cascading hearts dishcloth and read a few pages of Fleece Navidad, by Maggie Sefton. Knit on!

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday!!! to my daughter Kendra Rochelle Bruton born March 16, 1987 @ 2:50 am. She is 22 today and soon to graduate from college time passes by quickly. I am very excited about this phase in her life. I never did have that oh I am so sad my baby is gone empty nest thing that so many people seem to go through. I was always happy because she was happy about growing up. I cast on another dishcloth last night #6 Cascading Hearts, By Evelyn A Clark Leisure Arts dishcloth From The Heart #3253 . 24 rows into the cascading hearts dishcloth. 4 more days until the weekend. Craft on!

Tangled web of cotton

It's Saturday and I spent a large part of the day trying to untangle my used cotton yarn. I have several balls of used cotton yarn in both Peaches & Creme and Sugar' n Cream I had this yarn in a plastic bin and it all got tangled together. Some of the balls I am sure I could manage another dishcloth and others only a few row on something. I hope to find a nice and easy grocery bag to knit with my scrap yarn. Cast on an Shamrock Cloth last night I plan to add a few rows tonight and get most of in done tomorrow I want to finish the dishcloth by Tuesday St Patrick's day. The pattern I cast on is Knitted Shamrock Cloth, by Rhonda K. White located at http://wwwknittingknonsense.com/shamrockcloth.html . Now I am on the couch posting and watching t.v. what a way to spend a Saturday night. I need to read a few chapters of Fleece navidad. Craft on!!! Posting a picture of where I want to be instead of Asheboro North Carolina, I hope I will get to visit the beach again before I die during the summer and winter.

Radiating Hearts

I finished the Radiating Hearts dishcloth tonight. You can find this patten in Leisure Arts #3253 dishcloths From The Hearts, By Evelyn A. Clark. I used Lily The Original Sugar ' n Cream cotton yarn in Hot Orange. I love the color and feel the dishcloth turned out pretty good. So tomorrow is Friday and payday so after work I am off to Hobby Lobby for a skein of green cotton yarn I found a pattern on Ravelry for a shamrock dishcloth . St Patrick's day on the 17th and so I plan to cast on in so that the dishcloth will be finished by Tuesday in honor of St Pa tricks day. I still have enough time to crochet a scarf or granny square of national crochet month. Happy, happy tomorrow's Friday! Craft on ! Picture of my Radiating Hearts Dishcloth.

Recast

So last night I recast on the Radiating Hearts dishcloth that I cast on the first time on Saturday night. So far so good on the recast. I am on row 29 plan to knit a few more rows tonight. I knit a row or 2 during my morning break at work the first morning break I have taken in a long time I might add, then night a few rows during lunch. I can make out the the start of the first heart. This is a dishcloth you have to count your stitches. You have a lot of increasing, decreasing, and slip,slip, knit. If you want to get in good practice with most of your stitches a dishcloth can take you there you learn a lot. Three days until the weekend. Craft on! Posting a picture of the first 27 rows I think of the Radiating Hearts recast.

Sock yarn

Well just a quick damn it's Monday update. Last night I had to rip out all my hard work in the Radiating Hearts dishcloth apparently knitting and watching Big Love don't mix. It was a long hard day today and only 4 days until the weekend. So I have to start over on the dishcloth maybe tonight I am not sure. I might read for a few minutes tonight. I am posting a picture of the sock yarn I brought for my sock class. It is Trekking hand art made in Germany, it is hand painted very pretty and very bright color Tonga 510. I want to cast on the dishcloth not the socks, and I want to read. I can't do both. Oh well craft on!!

That horrible feeling it's Sunday night

Well the weekend is coming to a close. I got up late on Saturday and made my way to Gate City Yarns. I brought my supplies for my sock class. The dates for the class have been changed so I have to wait closer to the end of the month. Which is not that bad. I have the yarn, pattern and needles. I will post a picture of the yarn later this week. Cast on a dishcloth last night #4 Radiating Hearts from #3253 Leisure Arts dishcloths FROM THE HEART by Evelyn A. Clark. A heart is starting to form. This cloth starts off like the Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloth, from Dishcloths Boutique. I made it to row 30 last night I think I will add a few rows tonight. I am using Lily The Original Sugar' n Cream in Hot Orange. Posting a picture later in the week as so as I finish the dishcloth. I read a page or 2 of Club Dead and I want to read a few pages of Fleece Navidad. So much you want to do and so little time. Posting picture's of the cats just because. Bond off beginner's basic II Ribbed-for-Her-Pleasure Scarf from Stitch ' N bitch The Knitter's Handbook, by Debbie Stoller.

The top picture is Hermes and the bottom picture is Goldie. I am not sure what she was looking at out the storm door. I could not see it my self I think it was the flowers blowing it was very windy today. Hermes laying in a great sun spot by the sliding door.

Oh happy day!!! it's friday

Oh happy day !! its Friday and I am so happy. It has been a long week. It started with snow and will end with 75 degree temperature's!. I went yesterday to see my daughter cheer her last home game. It was a late night. Wednesday I knit a few rows on the beginner's basic II ribbed-for-her-pleasure scarf only a few more rows to go before bind off. I am trying not to cast on another scarf. I plan to print a shamrock dishcloth for St. Patrick's day and a scarf for national crochet month. This just a quick post to check in at the end of the week. Craft on!

Hot Blue

Well after ripping this pattern out over and over again last year I have finally knit this dishcloth. I started it last year June 27, 2008 and to repeat myself I had to rip it out more than I want to remember. So tired of it and frustrated I put down the pattern and did not pick it back up until last weekend. I am not sure what it was about the pattern that kept me from completing this dish cloth. The dish cloth in question is 10. Shapely Diamond from #3824 Leisure Arts Kitchen Bright Dishcloths 10 Knit Designs, Hot Blue Lily The Original' n Cream cotton yarn. I am not sure which dish cloth to try next but with all the cotton yarn in the stash no need to buy any more cotton yarn for a long time. Craft on!

March snow day!

In like a lion. Well March arrived with a bang with rain, sleet, and snow. This time you could not see the grass by the time it was all said and done. I did not make it to work today until around 11:00 am. It was very pretty I love snow but since my office does not close for snow it makes things so complicated. So got up got dressed emailed and called into work. Then watched the Morning Show, did breakfast and cleaned off the car as much a possible. I hope I can make it to work tomorrow due to the wet roads and melting snow I might have to deal with black ice. This is North Carolina snow today and by the end of the week they say we will hit the 70's. Snow a rare thing and this time it covered up the grass. I am ready for spring. My rosemary bush is laying over on the ground full of snow I hope it will straighten up. One day down 4 to go until the weekend. Still going strong with the shapely diamond dishcloth. I will add a few rows tonight. Craft on!!

10. SHAPELY DIAMOND

Well so far so good on the dishcloth I started last night. I made it through row 21 without any trouble. Still have the right number of stitches and the diamond pattern seems to be taking shape. The blue is really nice and bright a happy color. It is cold and it is still raining earlier today we did have some ice on the trees but that has gone away. Still no snow. I am happy about this and I hope nothing happens later tonight or in the early morning. Weather I want to or not I need to be able to get to work. Made my way out in the cold and rain to go to Walmart and Books.A.Million the book I ordered came in on Wednesday, Fleece Navidad, by Maggie Sefton it is a knitting mystery. Well I think I will add a few rows to my dishcloth while listening to Harry Potter And The Prisoner of Azkaban performance by Jim Dale. Still need to buy the other cd's in the series. Oh well craft on!. Update It is snowing and it has been for a few hours now. I don't think I will make it to work by 8:00 AM , and now I am sure even if I make it tomorrow I will spend the day doing interviews and not process cases and that's what I need to do. Row 41 on the Shapely Diamond dishcloth. What a day what a day.

Cold wet Saturday night

Well I made another trip to Costco and Gate City Yarns today. In all the trips that I have made to Costco I have never ever seen so many people it was wild. I loved it great samples, grapefruit cups, frozen pizza, clam chowder, pink salmon, lobster spread. Tonight I plan to cast on shapely Diamond dish cloth from Leisure arts Kitchen Bright Dishcloths 10 knit designs. This dishcloth for some reason is the thorn in my side. I have cast on and ripped out this cloth so many times just can't seem to get it right. Well after many months of putting it off the time is now. Gate City Yarns I needed to trade the yarn I brought last Saturday. I could not get the color I wanted so I traded for a different color being slow on the up take I did not think to ask if I could trade it for the needles I need for my sock knitting class next month. Oh well I will go to the yarn shop again next Saturday to get the yarn and needles since I won't get paid again before the first class. what I would not give to have money. I love to spend it think of all the yarn I could buy and the trips to Costco. Once again here in this area of NC we have a chance for sleet, freezing, and snow tomorrow and early Monday morning. I hope we don't get any bad weather I need to make it to work Monday morning. Craft on!

Knitting , reading, and cooking

Well I cooked today, this is something I rarely do cooking. I am not the best cook and I have to follow a recipe. I made one of my favorites Catfish Chowder I have a previous post about the chowder. On an off today I have been knitting and reading, Club Dead, by Charlaine Harris. I need to spend the rest of the week reading so I can finish the book on time to return it to the library. I love the cranberry swirl yarn I am using for my daughters scarf. I have purchased pink and green yarn to start a scarf weeks ago. I want to use circular needles on the scarf so I have put off starting the scarf never used circulars. I wish someone would offer a class on how to use circular needles.

Great Saturday

Well had a great day today. Got up this morning and my Mother and I got dressed and went to Costco I love Costco and I wish I pay a monthly visit. I can't believe I did not try any sample's today. Big crowd today and The samples just did not appeal to me today. Left Costco and proceeded to Gate City Yarns brought the wrong yarn and signed up and paid for a sock knitting class. I did not discover I had the wrong yarn until I got home. I think I will take it back next weekend I did not notice that I picked up the worsted weight Lamb's Pride instead of the bulky right color wrong weight. Then after leaving the yarn shop we met my daughter and her boyfriend and Ganache Restaurant & Bakery we had a lot of fun. The she crab soup and shrimp and grits awesome. Hit Total Wine and Borders the came back to then depressing city of Asheboro. I have been watching tv, reading, visiting my favorite site on the web no knitting so far tonight. I might get in a row or two before the night is over. It is hard to work in all the things you want to do in a day. Happy crafting.

Oh, Oh, Oh it is the weekend

Well I made it until the end of the week. Friday and it is the weekend baby. I live for the weekend. I have nothing exciting planned for tonight. I came home from work watched The View and Dr Phil then a few things on tv. I am in bed at this time surrounded by knitting patterns and projects. I am having a hard time with the Wavy gravy pattern in the stitch'n bitch Nation pattern book by Debbie Stoller. I am not sure if it is because I am reading he pattern wrong or if I wait to late in the night to start the pattern. I just can't get it to come out right. I have cast on and ripped out several times in the last week. I will cast on again tomorrow, I re-read the pattern today and will re-read tomorrow. I am not sure where I am going wrong. I will pay a visit to Gate City Yarns tomorrow to get a few skeins of Lamb's Pride Bulky in M250 Cranberry Swirl to make a hat for my Daughter. I have a scarf going in that color using the beginner's basic II ribbed-for-Her-Pleasure scarf from Debbie Stoller's stitch' N bitch The Knitter's Handbook. So I plan to give her the scarf because she has a very pretty pea coat that will go great with the scarf and then knit a hat to match, the Hot Head hat on page 162 of the same book. I plan to use a solid color I think it will take only one more skein but just in case I will buy 2 maybe 3 better safe than sorry. I hope they still have the color in stock. It is so hard to work everything in that I would like to do. read,knit, blog and watch tv. My current reads Club Dead, by Charlaine Harris, Knitting Rules, by Stephanie Pearl-Mcphee, and Saved Folk in the House, by Sonnie Beverly. I guess I need to read a few pages and then knit a few rows. I knit a few row last night on my long running Bias scarf and the ribbed-ribbed-for-Her-Pleasure scarf, read a page or two in club dead. Happy Crafting. I will keep you updated on my progress this weekend.

Long weekend coming to a close

Well not a bad weekend and now it is coming to a close. I took today off from work. I had a few things to take care of today and then I met a very dear friend for lunch. I had a great time and I wish I could meet her ever week for lunch. I had to rip out the new scarf I cast on Saturday night well maybe early Sunday morning. Pattern found in the stitch n bitch. I brought 2 books this weekend Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, Knitting Rules! and Saved Folk in the House a novel by Sonnie Beverly. The scarf I cast on had to be ripped out. I will start again soon. I had a great day today.

Stitch'N bitch The Knitter's Handbook

Well yesterday I decided to cast on a scarf from Stitch ' N bitch The Knitter's Handbook , by Debbie Stoller. beginner's basic II Ribbed-for-Her-Pleasure Scarf page 58. A simple rib stitch. I am using 2 skeins of Lamb's Pride Bulky m250 Cranberry Swirl spun and dyed by Brown Sheep Company, Inc. Very pretty great color. Long hard day today but I am one day closer to the weekend. I am trying to resist the urge to cast on Wavy Gravy by, Rachael Russ from Stitch' bitch Nation by Debbie Stoller. We will see what happens. Happy crafting.

It's a beautiful day

Well its a beautiful day nice and warm. I spent the day with sliding door open letting in the fresh air and sunshine. Pretty good weekend all around Saturday I made chili to take over to my Sisters house for my brother in laws birthday party. Great party then today I just laid in bed watched tv and spent time on the Internet. Cast on the beginner's basic II scarf Ribbed for-her-pleasure Scarf page 58 of Stitch' bitch The Knitter's Handbook by Debbie Stoller. I know I should not with all the unfinished projects I have going. Could not help my self. The great days pass by so fast off to work tomorrow. I have a long weekend coming up I will not go into details at this time. My bias scarf almost done adding a few more rows and then the fringe.

Snow

Snow flurries in NC not long ago we had a few snow flurries in Asheboro. I love snow and I have often wonder what it would be like to have snow every winter. Big snows not just a dusting or a few inches. In the area I live in it is not often you get a big snow. Okay I want to start a project and I need needles to get the project started, so far I have not purchased the needles I need circular needles and double pointed needles. I checked my stash of needles and no go I need to get the needles they are not in my stash. It is my goal to learn how to use double pointed needles, circular needles , and cable needles. I need to knit a few rows on my scarf. Happy crafting.

The last days of the month

Well the first month of 2009 is about to end. I have finished reading 4 books and still knitting my Christmas Carol Scarf and Bias scarf. If you can't tell I don't knit everyday. I need to make my self go to first Friday at Gate City Yarns in Greensboro also sign up for a knitting class. This is just a check in to let you know I am still around. Craft on!

Brand New Day

God is good and all the time God is good. We had snow over night and since it is NC and we get snow in the area I live maybe every 4 0r 5 years I called in today and did not go to work. I have been driving for more than 20 years but very little winter weather driving experience. The timing of this few inches of snow could not have been better because today is inauguration day. I have been glued to the television all day. I am still watching television. I am recording all of it and I hope we will be able to buy a dvd. Beyonc'e sang At Last, by Etta James and the President and First Lady did the first dance. I know a lot of people are unhappy about our 44th president but I really think we should give him a chance. I spent a little and I mean a very little amount of time knitting only a few rows on a bias scarf that I started month's ago and reading a few chapters of the secret life of a knitter by the Yarn Harlot, Stephanie Pearl- Mcphee. Craft on still watching tv.

Checking In

I won't to go in record that I am on team Barry. I hope the next book will come soon. It is soon nice that the books come out in paperback and or so affordable.

Found the recipe in December 2008 Southern living. Watched 27 dresses and then my mother and I took down the Christmas decoration in the yard. My daughter could not help she had to go back to school for cheer leading practice. I finished reading Dead Men Don't Crochet, by Betty Hechtman I really enjoyed the read. I enjoy cozy mysteries. No knitting today. Happy crafting.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year. I hope every one has had a Happy first day of the new year. I spent most of the day watching The Twilight Zone marathon and The Planet of the Apes marathon. I love both. Spent time reading Dead Men Don't Crochet and knitting a few rows on my Christmas Carol Scarf. It is the first day of 2009. What will 2009 hold for me. I hope great things. This is just a quick post to start off the new year so I don"t have to much going on today. I cooked a pork tenderloin, black eyed peas and heated a collard my mother cook for today. Very nice meal. So happy crafting. Christmas December 2006.

New Year's Eve

Only a few hours left in the year. New Years Eve pretty good day so far. I forgot to meet my Friend for lunch today and I really hate that because it is hard to find time to spend with my friend she has a husband and 2 children well one is an adult and one teenager but both are still living at home and her husband is a minister. So after a few emails this afternoon we have made arrangement to meet on Friday for lunch. I had to go out to Walmart today and to Food Lion. I had to pick up a few things at Walmart and Food Lion had Champagne on sale 3 for $11.00 so I brought 6 bottles and no I won't drink them all tonight. I will save some for a later date. I have spent most of the day watching The Twilight Zone Marathon on the Sci-Fi channel. I look forward to this every year. I will change to Dick Clark around 11:30. I need to add a few rows to my Christmas Carol Scarf. So far no reading today or knitting. I received an offer in the mail yesterday to subscribe to Vogueknitting I don't have any plans to subscribe but in the letter they did send a free pattern for a ribbed cap simple pattern and they used Noro/KFI's Kureyon #102 pink. So now I need to talk my self out of going to Stitch Point on Saturday to buy a skein for the cap. I hope everyone has a Happy New Year. Happy crafting.

Another long weekend

You know I could get use to a 2 day work week and long as I am getting paid for 5 days. I made it I have all my cases processed and I am off work for the rest of the week. I have the house to myself until New Year's Day. So I plan to enjoy my time off. I did not get a chance to knit, or read yesterday after work. After work I got home a started a pot of chili so I could give some to my daughter and her boyfriend to take to the beach, my mother baked a ham and made yeast rolls. My daughter and her boyfriend got to the house at around 10:30 or 11:00 she had to work yesterday. We had a very nice visit. I am trying very hard not to get to attached to this boyfriend but he is so nice and very like able. Sunday made the 8 months. Her longest relationship since college. So I got to bed late and had to get up and go to work today, the first few hours at work was rough but made it through and as stated earlier I finished processing all the cases I needed to get done by the end of the month. It was not easy. Finished a few rows on my Christmas Carol Scarf and I plan to read later tonight. Just a quick update tonight no new pictures to post. Happy crafting. Christmas beach trip 2006.

I need to get all my cases processed so I can take Wednesday off work the office is closed on New Year's Day. I have asked for New Year's Eve off work a who wants to go back to work on Friday after having Thursday off so I requested Friday off too. I have both days off but if I can't get finished with my cases I might have to work at least half a day on Wednesday. So far no knitting today might knit a few rows tonight. Happy crafting.

I love vacation.

Why is it that your days off seem to pass by so quickly. It's Saturday night and it's back to work on Monday. Another great day spent most of the morning watching old movies on TCM, got up dressed and went to the movies The Tale Of Despereaux, with my niece Deja she's 9. The movie was great and I enjoyed myself and the time I spent with my neice. The mouse was so cute. So be brave if you don't have a little kid to take with you and go see the movie. I picked up my copy of Dead Men Don't Crochet, by Betty Hechtman. I think I will read a few pages tonight. I added a few rows to my Christmas Carol scarf. Posting a picture of the scarf in progress. Happy Crafting.

Eating and shopping.

Great day today. I spent part of the morning checking my email and a few forums. Then showered got dressed so that I could meet my daughter in Greensboro to do a little mother daughter bonding. While I waited for her to get to Greensboro from Durham I paid a visit to Gate City Yarns located at 231 S Elm St, Greensboro. It was my first time in the shop since the remodel and reopening, Yarn Etc was the former owners of the shop. It is now owned by Carl Beeson and Tina Feir. I signed up for their newsletter and I've already received a newsletter it was in my email when I got home today, they have great yarn and the place looks great inside. I brought 3 skeins of yarn Duo in a very pretty variegated blue it is an acrylic but it does not feel like acrylic, also one of my favorites Lambs Pride Bulky in a very pretty Cranberry Swirl. I already have a project in mine for the Lambs Pride. I meet my daughter at Ganache located at 403 N Elm St, Greensboro. When you walk through the doors the very first thing you see is the most beautiful cakes and cheesecake I have every seen. The staff was very friendly the service was excellent and the food was just so, so good. My daughter and I both ordered the Shrimp and grits and all I can say is wow I have never had grits for anything but breakfast never with shrimp served as an entree, I also tried a bowl of she crab soup it was great too! My daughter had a slice of Red Velvet Cake she said it was very good. We are both ready to go back again. Then We went to Stitch Point located at 1614-C West Friendly Avenue, Greensboro brought more yarn Plymouth Yarn Galway 6 skeins 3 pink and 3 green to knit a scarf and hat for my daughter in her sorority colors. If you are a Noro lover Stitch Point is the place to go, I need to make another trip I hope in February My plan is to buy Noro lots of Noro. Then to add to shopping I should not have done I went to borders pick up the latest One - Skein Wonders book 101 Small Indulgences Luxury Yarn One - Skein Wonders. I spent sometime last night working on a plain garter stitch scarf to go along with the reading of A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens it is next months book discussion on a group through Ravelry. The yarn is Lion Brand Yarn Fishermen's Wool color Nature's Brown 100% pure virgin wool. I plan to add fringe. In all the Christmas Carol movies I love to watch every year most of the scarves have fringe. The last inflatable in the yard Snoopy on top of his dog house. Happy crafting.

Christmas Day

Christmas day and so far a pretty good day. My sister and nieces and nephew came over for a few minutes this morning. My daughter has called me 3 times today. She is in Durham spending Christmas with her boyfriend and his family. I think she is having a good time. I think she will be back here on Sunday. I definitely had to much wine last night I put on my favorite Christmas Carol dvd on and I was asleep before the door knocker turned into Jacob Marley. So just as soon as my mother leaves to go visit her mother my grandmother with her sister I am planning on giving it another try and watching the movie again. The Grinch after he stole all the toys from the Who's another inflatable in the yard. I took the pictures during the day because my camera does not do to well at night.

Christmas Eve

Well its Christmas Eve. I spent a few hours of the day at Walmart and Bottom Dollar, Lowe's Food. Last minute shopping. I hate last minute shopping. At this time I am watching It's a Wonderful Life. I have already had to much wine and a visit from a very good friend. So far no reading,knitting, crochet or reading. I have to start while I am on vacation. Our office was closed today and will be closed Thursday and Friday reopen on Monday. I hope everyone has a happy Christmas. I think I should cast on. This is the Grinch coming out of the chimney very nice yard art.

Very pink scarf.

Well the weekend almost over. I just finished a nice Bias Scarf. I used Yarn Bee Yarn in what I think is bubblegum pink. I lost the band that went with the yarn. I paid a visit to my local Hobby Lobby and the Hobby Lobby in Greensboro no more of the yarn in the color I have so I how have a very short scarf. Great scarf. Only 2 work days Monday and Tuesday and then nice long vacation. Our office is closed Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I return to work 12/29/2008 work the 29th and the 30th and go back to work on the 5th of January. So it like oh happy day. Still no picture of the Grinch I will take one on Wednesday and post the same day. Posting a picture of the Bias Scarf that is hot off the needles.

Rainy Saturday Night

Well not an all together bad day. It started out a bit rocky because about 6:30 am I think I was trying to come out of a bad dream I kept hearing a loud noise like someone was trying to beat on my front door and get it open then move to my bedroom window and all I remember is the beating noise at the door and my window and the fact that I was very afraid and could not make myself scream. I could her myself screaming in my head but no sound out of my mouth. Do I finally made myself sit up in bed an then get out of bed and turn my bedroom light on in the room. I went into the living room turned on the lights looked outside and nothing so I think it was just a dream. Could not go back to sleep so I spent the early morning with TMC and my computer. I had a planned trip to Costco with my sister and brother in law. It had been several months since I had paid a visit to Costco and I still love the store but the prices have increased more than I expected them to increase. I still feel on some items I received a good price but I am being to wonder if it is worth the membership fee. I have to accept the fact that I will not be able to get another skein of yarn for the bias scarf I have on the needles. It is a Yarn Bee yarn by Hobby Lobby. I made the mistake of only buying on skein because I felt like it would be enough and it is not because I like a nice long scarf. The Hobby Lobby in Greensboro did not have the color I need. The color they had did not come close. It is a nice very bright pink. You can see the color in yesterday's post. The picture I am posting tonight is of a bowl of Manhattan Catfish Chowder I found the recipe in our local newspaper The Courier-Tribune Wednesday July 18, 2001 I love the recipe. I like to make it on cold nights it is not that cold tonight but very rainy so I felt that it was a good time to make the chowder. Only 2 work days in the up coming week. Happy, Happy! So far so good on Yarn Harlot the secret life of a knitter.

Friday Night Combo

Well its Friday night and it is my blog anniversary 12/19/2005 while watching tv and drinking wine I decided to create a blog. I have to confess until I started listening to NPR and read an article in the newspaper I did not know anything about blogs. In November 2005 I decided to learn how to crochet took a class at my local Hobby Lobby joined Crochetville and found out so many interesting things. I am however a bad blogger because I will go for long periods of time without posting a blog. It is not because I have a lot to do at night or on the weekends but because I hit slumps and I can barely make myself do anything. I know I have promised this before but in 2009 I plan to try harder. Knit, crochet, and post more often. I brought another Yarn Harlot book(Yarn Harlot the secret life of a knitter) today and the Fall/Winter issue of Knit.1 . So I plan to look through the magazine and read a few pages of the Yarn Harlot book. Only 2 days to work next week Monday and Tuesday our office is closed Wednesday,Thursday, and Friday. So a nice long holiday. I don't want to wish this weekend away because it passing by to fast all by its self but I can't wait until next Tuesday. The year is almost over and I am not sure I am ready. You will see in the picture I have posted my current knitting project it is a Bias Scarf using Yarn Bee Yarn I made the rookie mistake when I purchased this yarn over a year ago to only by one skein. So this week I went looking for another skein at my local Hobby Lobby and I could not find the color I needed. So if I can't find this color tomorrow at the Greensboro Hobby Lobby I will need to live with a short scarf.

Thursday Night Out With Friends

I spent a wonderful night out with one of my friends Priscilla Williams and her daughter Amber. After work today I met them a local restaurant Chin Song Restaurant they had a very good sanitation grade the food and the hot tea was great, very friendly service. Then it was off to the library to listen to a wonderful concert performed by Lane Ragsdale and Friends. It was called A Greeting Card from Lane and Friends. Everyone did a wonderful job and I really enjoyed myself and I play to go to the next performance in the spring. I have decided that I am going to try and get out more and participate if life. I have got to do more fun things instead of the soul sucking activities I participating in each and everyday. My picture is blurred could not get a good shot.

Quick Post

It is the middle of the week and I wanted to do a quick post to say still knitting and reading. I made a trip to Hobby Lobby after work today I was looking for a certain Yarn Bee yarn in a certain color a very bright pink I my local Hobby Lobby did not have the yarn. So on Saturday I will visit the Hobby Lobby in Greensboro to see if the have a skein if not my scarf will be short. I purchased a skein of Fishermen's Wool , by Lion Brand Yarn. I plan to use this to make a simple knit stitch scarf to go along with the book A Christmas Carol. A Christmas Carol is the book of the month on a reading group that I belong to on Ravelry. My favorite movie based on the book is the Alastair Sims version in the movie you see several scarves and shawls. I think most of them are knit. So I plan to do a simple scarf in knit stitch to go along with the book using the Fisherman' s Wool . Still reading Knit Two, by Kate Jacobs and adding row's to both the Bias scarves I have on needles.

Finally a finished project!

Well today I managed enough energy to weave the ends on my Filipi Scarf, designed by Tamara Del Sonno from the book 101 Yarn-Shop Favorites One-Skein Wonders, Edited by Judith Durant. The scarf that I knit is on page 29. I used the Misti International, Misti Alpaca Chunky, 100% baby alpaca color I used VR1440 Forest Green. The scarf in the photo is 2L474 Yellow. The yarn is great very soft. The pictures I post just don't seem to capture the color very good but its close. The scarf is not difficult too knit. The worse part for me was the ending ruffle. Increasing back out to 64 stitches. I had a lot of help from Jane Lackey a friend a fellow co-worker. I knit a few rows on one of my bias scarves I have on needles. Finished reading Dead Until Dark The First Sookie Stackhouse Novel, by Charlaine Harris. The HBO Series True Blood is based on the Sookie Stackhouse Series. It was a great book and I am on the waiting list at the library for the second book in the series. While I am waiting I have gone back to Knit Two it is Kate Jacobs sequel to A Friday Night Knitting Club. Well Monday is looming and I want to read a little more before I go to bed.

December

Well its the last month in the year. No real news on the knitting or the crochet front. I read over a pattern for an afghan I started I think at least 2 years ago. Crochet Lace Shells I need to add a few mores rows and I think it will be big enough for a throw. It is red I love read. I went online and found the instruction for the brick or crazy stitch I started an afghan out of that stitch and I think it is big enough and just need to weave the ends. Still have 3 ufo Bias Scarves and need to weave the ends of my Filippi Scarf. I have not cast on the second scarf. I Final picked up the first book in the Sookie Stackhouse Novel Dead Until Dark, Charlaine Harris, so far so good. I wanted to read the books after I started watching Trueblood on HBO. I did not get started reading books about Vampires until this year and it started with the Twilight Series, by Stephenie Meyer. The second book in a crochet mystery series is out , by Betty Hechtman Dead Men Don't Crochet. I plan to check Books-A-Million on Monday. I am a bad blogger. I plan to try and improve in the new year. Post more and knit and crochet more in the new year. I still have not managed to take a picture of the inflatable Grinch. I keep forgetting until it get to dark.

Nice long weekend over it's Sunday night.

Well for the first time since 2006 I have had 5 whole days off work. I took Wednesday off and the office was closed on Thursday and Friday. I spent some very nice Mother, Daughter bonding time on Wednesday putting net lights on the azalea bushes and staking inflatables in the yard. Later in the week I promise to post a picture of the inflatable Grinch. I know they are outdoor decorations but I don't think they work well in the rain. I plugged them in today and the Grinch did not look like he would stay lite so I unplugged everyone and I will wait until later in the week when they dry out. Final finished knitting my Filippi Scarf and binding off all I need to do now is weave the ends. I am ready to cast on a second Filippi Scarf I might to that tonight. I did not spend to much time knitting this weekend like I had planned to do. Thursday had dinner with the family and watched Yours mine and ours on TMC with my daughter Thursday night. Went to see Twilight with my daughter and 2 of her friend Friday afternoon and on Friday night had leftovers at my sisters house and watched A Christmas Carol the Alastair Sim version. My favorite and on an off on Saturday I watched the Planet of the Apes marathon and started reading Knit Two, by Kate Jacobs it is the sequel to A Friday Night Knitting Club. No Black Friday shopping no money had to pay the mortgage. I wish you could get one month out of the year that you did not have to pay any bills. I am posting a picture of my daughter from the Night she was pinned she is Alpha Kappa Alpha the Gamma Lambda Chapter at Winston Salem State University. I did not go to the pinning but I did attend probate last Sunday night. I will post a picture of her from that night later in the week.

Filippi Scarf gone wrong!

Well over the past weekend while trying to finish the ending ruffle on my scarf my stitches went so wrong. I asked a friend at work to help me middle of last week and she did she did the first row of the ruffle while I watched and I planned to work the 2nd row. Well I did not increase the way I should have and could not figure out how to take the stitches back out that I had knit so how I am in a mess. I plan to take the scarf to work tomorrow and get my friend to help me rip out a few rows without doing to much damage. I sent a message to a friend on Ravelry because she had knit the same scarf and she told me to knit and purl in the same stitch for the increase to make the ruffle. I hope I can figure this out soon it is a great scarf and I have another very pretty bulky yarn to make another scarf in the same pattern. The pattern is from One-Skein Wonders 101 Yarn-Shop Favorites, edited by Judith Durant page 29. My work on the scarf will continue. I have 3 Bias scarves in various stages on progress and my Giant Pom-Pom Scarf still waiting on Pom-Poms. I hope to finish all of this over my nice long Thanksgiving Holiday. I hope I only have to work 2 days next week! I have asked for Wednesday off too and I am trying my very best to get all my work done so I can take the day off on Wednesday. That will be 5 whole days I have not had 5 days in a row off since December 2006. Happy knitting and crocheting.

Cast on!

I cast on a bias scarf yesterday using Patons Classic Wool Merino in That's Pink, nice bright color. Finished the last few rows and binding off of a scarf now all I need to do is make the pom-poms and attach them to the scarf. Just as soon as I do that and get my camera back from my daughter I will post a picture. Our office was closed today for Veterans Day. So I had a nice long day of rest and I am happy about. Yes I do feel very greatful to all Veterans. I know its not just about having the day off.

GLORY! GLORY!, GLORY! HALLELUJAH!

Hallelujah, Hallelujah is the highest praise!. Over 200 years on slavery, 200 years of Jim Crow and a black (African American) is the President elect of the United States Of America. Glory, Glory, Hallelujah is the highest praise. Words cannot express how I feel about this moment in history. I have heard people say I can't vote for him because of his name, or because he is a Muslim and all these things have been overcome. I am 44 years old and I did not think I would live to see the day a black man aka African American could become the next president of the united states of America. So this is from slavery to the white house. I have soon much hope for the future.

VOTE !!!!!!!! VOTE !!!!!!!!

PLEASE VOTE I AM BEGGING YOU VOTE NO MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE. NORTH CAROLINA YOU STILL HAVE TIME THE POLLS DON'T CLOSE UNTIL 7:30 GET UP GET OUT AND GET IN LINE. PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP!!! CHANGE CAN BE MADE IF YOU VOTE.

Vote!

Well I got up early today and made my way to the board of elections and cast my vote. This was the last day for early voting. I hope everyone will vote on election day. I am ready for a change the past 8 years have been hell and I am tired. I finally brought my first Yarn Harlot book. At Knit's End Meditations for Women who Knit Too Much, by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee. So far it is a good read.

My Daughter and her Friends!!!!

Well no big news on the knitting front. This post is just so I can post a few pictures of my daughter and her friends. She had these pictures taken last week during Homecoming activities. The first is a picture of my daughter Kendra Bruton and Joshua Chavis. Miss and Mister University Cheerleader.

This is a picture of Kendra and her Friend Gennerfra Daniels Miss NABA

The last picture is of Kendra and Brent her friend. I was informed that today made the 6 month mark in the relationship.

October slowly fading away.

Well this weekend was not to bad. I went to WSSU'S Homecoming on Saturday and what I thought would be a wet time was not wet at all had some rain on the way to the game but by the time the game started the sun came out and it was a great and dry day. WSSU lost the game I felt sorry for them since it was Homecoming everyone wants a win during Homecoming. So I came home and spent the evening watching tv and knitting I am working on a scarf that I started almost a year ago and since it has been so long since I had worked on the scarf when I started back I some how went wrong and had to rip out the old stuff and start all over again I really should not have started the project again after the 3rd glass of wine. The scarf so long in the making can be found in Crazy Aunt Purl's Drunk, Divorced & Covered in Cat Hair, by Laurie Perry aka Crazy Aunt Purl, Giant Pom-Pom Scarf. My second project is from One-Skein Wonders Edited by Judith Durant, Filippi Scarf on page 29. If I worked my project everyday I am sure I would finish them faster and would have more project to post. Its Sunday night and I am trying not to think about Monday and another work week.

Rainy Friday

Well its Fall and today was cool rainy. I am so glad its the weekend. Very busy week at work. My knitting week has been a little slow. I did weave the ends of at least 3 Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloths. I knit 2 of the dishcloths using I Love This Cotton! Super Soft Super Savings from Hobby Lobby color#/Name;# 8 Carousel Hombre. Very pretty color. It is really soft and the color is great. The last debate is over and now we are in the home stretch until voting day. I hope everyone gets out and votes. I feel that it is one of the most important things we can to as citizens. I feel this way more so for myself because for a long time black or if you prefer African Americans did not have this right until a lot of people fought and died. So since the age of eighteen I have participated in the voting process. When your people have been hung, hosed, and killed to obtain their right it is your moral duty to participate in the process. If you have not registered to vote check with you state to see if they have One-Stop Voting Sites. In the state on North Carolina early voting stated 10/16/2008 and will continue through 11/01/2008. You can register and vote in the same day. Please call you local board of election to find out if you have the same thing in you state.

What a day

I know I know a long time between posts. I have been very lazy and not much knitting going on these last few days. I started 2 different dishcloths started and I ripped them out because something went wrong with both dishcloths. I finished reading Dyer Consequences, by Maggie Sefton the 5th book in the knitting mystery series. I finally brought a skein of I Love This Cotton! the color #8 Carousel Ombre. I plan to knit another Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloth you can find the pattern at Dishcloths Boutique www.jimsyldesign.com . This weekend no football game the next game is Homecoming October 25, 2008. I love the idea of the game not so sure about the parade but since my daughter will be in the parade I have to go to many people and to much traffic. I will be at the parade however because that's what Mothers do for there children.

No New Projects

Well I have spent most of the week reading and I finally cast on a dishcloth. I am still trying to conquer the #10 Shapely Diamond dishcloth from the #3824 Kitchen Bright Dishcloths 10 Knit Designs. I cast on again this weekend. I am currently reading a new Maggie Sefton knitting Mystery Dyer Consequences. I went to WSSU football game on Saturday. WSSU lost and I feel so bad for them. If you visit you tube and search for WSSU cheerleader then go to the video for MTV you can see the Red Team cheerleaders. I Think the video is great you can see the cheerleader and the band I think the color guard and dancers and pep squad.

Feather and Fan Dishcloth

Well another weekend draws to a close and it is off to work tomorrow. I am so very thankful to have a job. I am also very depressed. I wish I had been born smart enough to attend College and move far far away. So life being what it is I will just have to move on and exist until I die. I went to WSSU on Saturday to watch the game and my daughter cheer. WSSU lost the game but I still enjoyed the evening. I spent today reading and knitting. I made a trip to the Library in Greensboro to pick up a book to read Dyer Consequences, by Maggie Sefton the 5th book in a series. I finished knitting a Feather & Fan Dishcloth. I used Peaches & Creme 100% Cotton Yarn 4 ply color #175 Fiesta and size 4.5 mm knitting needles. Great pattern you can find the pattern at www.jimsyldesign.com .

September!

September already!! Well its the first week of September and I am amazed that we are in the 9th month of the year. The year will end before we know what has happened. I paid a visit to the Library and picked up the book The Sisterhood of the Dropped Stitches, by Janet Tronstad. I cast on for the 2nd time Feather & Fan Dishcloth designed by Linda Smith. You can find the pattern at http://www.jimsyldesign.com . I had to rip out the first dishcloth not because it is a hard pattern but because I worked on the pattern while watching the democratic convention and Barack Obama's speech I some how lost which row I was and the rest is history. Rip, rip.

Long Labor day weekend

Well its Saturday and I spent a little time trying to clean my bedroom. Then off to the grocery store to by ribs to put on the grill. I got off work at 12:00 yesterday went to books-a-million brought eclipse by Stephenie Meyer on cd and I am listening to it right now. I had to rip out a dish cloth last night that I had been working on one that I had put down for weeks. I got a big tangle in the yarn. So I will need to try and untangle the rest of the ball. I am not use of what project to start. Picture of my Daughter, her friend Brent, and his Father.

Yes its another dishcloth

Well tonight I am posting pictures of 2 dishcloths. Yes I am still on the Grandmother's Favorite Dishcloth. I can't help it I am addicted to this dishcloth. It is easy and quick. I plan to start a different dishcloth this weekend since I have a nice long weekend coming. I have a scarf I want to start too. I have talked about starting this scarf before and just can't seem to get around to doing what I say I am going to do when it comes to projects I want to start. The colors used in the 2 dishcloths I am posting tonight are Holiday Stripes and Rosewood, of course it is Lily The Original Sugar' n Cream cotton yarn. I am almost finished with another dishcloth using mill ends cotton yarn I brought at A C Moore over a year ago. A C Moore stopped carrying mill ends I hate that because you could buy a big skein of yarn. No color listed on the yarn but that was okay you got the yarn at a good price.

Meet The Rams!!

Well I spent a very lovely afternoon at my daughter's school. It was meet the Rams day. We heard the band perform and the cheerleaders, and got to see the football team. It was hot but still nice. My daughter is the Captain on the red team cheerleader. Her friend is a wide receiver I think that's what the guy said while he was introducing the team. I am posting a picture of my daughter and then one of her and her friend. I got the chance to meet his parents today and they are very, very nice people. My daughter Kendra Rochelle Bruton, her friend Brent Thomas.
