It's Summer!

Mood - Sunny

WIP - I finished the “Sox’s that Rock”!!!! And they fit. I’m working on another BD scarf. I’m using a nice cotton yarn called –“Candy”. I will post a picture of both the socks and the scarf soon. I’m working on my “Chutes and Ladders” sock. I’ve frogged 2 times. It’s coming along now, but you can’t see the design or the yarn over's very well so I’m considering using a different yarn?

What I’m Doing Today - Bunco tonight and then to the cabin for the weekend. I will work on work on Snoopy’s doggie sweater and slippers around the campfire. Those items can get “smoky” and full of mosquito dope and be o.k. LOL.

Weather -Warm and sunny. Currently 68 High today 72 low 58.

WIP - I’m still working on my “Sox’s that Rock” – I joined the “Six_Sox” knitting ring. The first sock for this year is “Chutes and Ladders”. I think it will be fun. I’ve never done a cable before. I’ve been investigating different sights for techniques. I finished Emily’s Birthday scarf and I need to start another ASAP. Next birthday 7/7.

I posted the pictures of my recent scarfs last night .. what a job. I haven’t posted in almost a month. I’ll try harder?

What I’m Doing Today – High School Softball BBQ tonight. Garage saleing tomorrow. Looking for yarn. I have found some very good deals so far this summer. Ken and I will be working with the HS softball summer program so between that and work we won’t be going to the cabin as much as we wanted.

What I’m Doing Today – High School Softball tonight and then to my son’s softball game. The weather has been nice. But it did cool down. It’s been nice to sit in the hottub in the evenings and just soak. My shoulder and neck have been bothering me. What I ‘d really like is a massage!.

I finished the "Drop Stitch" scarf. Wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. On to the next Amsterdam Birthday scarf.

What I’m Doing Today –We’re getting busy at work with spring fishing tackle orders and I’m busy uploading Wal-Mart inventory and P.O.’s and working with the Retail Link. Away from work.. I’m helping with High School Softball. I’m the scorekeeper for East High School. You can catch me at the softball fields, soaking up the SUN and knitting in between innings and games!!! That’s right.. SUN. We are breaking all records.

Here's a close up. You can't see the ribbing very well though.

Mood – Good!

WIP - I’m back from vacation and will try and post all the pictures of my projects soon. I’m working on my “Socks that Rock” – I’m having a problem with the second one. The pattern isn’t the same as the first at all. I knew it would be a little different but…. See the pictures. I have started over again at the other end of the skein of yarn to see if the self-pattern will work out. It doesn’t seem to be working but I will have to work a few more rows.

What I’m Doing Today – Trying to get caught up at work and home. Spring has come at last. We came home to snow. Yuk. And our weather in Arizona wasn’t that hot either. It was a break!!!

Weather - Cool and cloudy ---looks like and smells like rain. Currently 45 High today 42 low 34…Mostly cloudy.

Different Stripe Pattern?

Mood – I’m get excited!

WIP - I finished the Amsterdam scarf for DD and I’m working on a pair of plum color socks for my little friend Rylee. I also started a “Mistake Scarf” last night out of some low-end cotton variegated yarn. I really like it.

What I’m Doing Today – Work and Worship practice tonight. Getting ready to pack for our vacation. I’m getting my yarn and audio books together first then I will pack around them as I don’t need allot of clothes. I’ve left quit a few clothes at my father-in-laws to use when we’re visiting. The type of clothes I won’t ever wear in Alaska. LOL It doesn’t get hot enough here. I don’t know if I will be able to post for the next 2 weeks. But I will try. I can’t get my pictures uploaded today so I’ll try again tomorrow I guess.
