Moving slowly
Since everyone is talking about the heat I will not delve into that steamy subject except to say that I am moving very slowly. It has not been any weather to get outside and I seem to have no energy. Yet the crafting must go on....
...So I have finished my butterflies and they have all flown to their new homes. I have received three of my six from my KWON friends. The colors are so bright and cheerful that I have placed them on my fridge so I can see them each morning. Just the sight of them brightens my day.
....I sent my prayer shawl to my friend that is battling cancer for the second time. This is so sad and I am remembering her and hubby in my prayers each night.
...I started on another prayer shawl - I don't know who this one will be for but I know that before it is finished I will be led in the direction that I should send it. This has happened before so I have faith that He has a recipient in mind. I am doing this one on my prayer loom instead of needle knitting it. My CP has been bothering me a lot lately so knitting has slowed down and crocheting has had to stop. The motion of crochet really irritates Mr. CP so I have moved away from it for a little while.
...I have been looming some hats for TTT. I had a bunch of little balls of yarn left over from previous projects so I am using those for my little hats. When the "little ball basket" begins to run over into the floor it is time to put those little fellows to work :)
.... I have some lovely wool in my stash from Knit Picks that I want to make a felted tote with but the weather has detoured that project for a while. I cannot think of wool right now so I think I will stick to my baby yarns for now.
...My KWON group is starting some new KAL classes next month so I am excited about those. There will be some really great projects coming up. If you are free - join us!
....The puppies are growing and are almost 6 weeks old now. It will soon be time to find them new homes. (a sad but happy time) The little sweeties sure do grow on you! I know that I will be sad to see them go but DH says that we must sell them. Yes, Yes, I Know...Five dogs in the house is too many :) Oh, well..I will just play with them while they are here.
...Stay cool all....Purl a stitch for me as I am off to play with the puppies!
Happy Knitting :)
