I gotta get my Flea in this thread...sorry it's blurry.

she actually liked being carried, and being oh-so-carefully dipped in the water, instead of having to swim like any other old dog... lol.

she's a priss.

I missed knitting night tonight...boo hoo...

We had an event to attend for dh's work. it was in the fancy part of town, at someone's house, with valet parking no less! I felt really out of my element, as I am just a plain southern liberal, living the high life for one night with the SF society folk- whew! It was fun, and the people were very friendly and kind. The hosts were exceptionally nice- and the food was good too.

That said- I miss my knitting girls- hope they had a good evening without me. Hope they know they were missed (((hugs)))

Because I don't like blogs without pictures, I'll post an old finished object...
This was done for my neice in 04 (the year i learned how to knit) I think this was my second or third scarf. It was unusually soft and yummy to touch, and I loved the burst of pink and the fringe. I don't know if it survived long, but I loved it. I was very proud of it :-) (no pattern!)

she's back from surgery!

little girl is still on the needles, but she's on her way again :-) Thanks to Cyn for her surgical skills!



Cyn's new blankie- from Mason/Dixon if I remember correctly. It's going to be gorgeous!


And Lucy's lovely wedding shawl- lucky bridesmaids! OMG! I am almost* inspired enough to get started on something lacy myself...


Found out today that one of my very favorite people is coming to visit me! OMG- I am so effing excited. She'll be here in July, and she's going to Stitch and Pitch with me- woo hoo! I taught her how to knit (she really didn't have a choice in the matter) and it turned out she loved it and was a natural. It is going to be fantastic- we might just knit and craft ourselves to death.

* I'm not casting on lace only because I am on a sock jag...must. make. more. socks...and i feel a baby sweater jag coming after that...(baby surprise jacket anyone?)
