stix and a ball of string....

Check out this wonderful surprise from my loom knitting friend MJ - are these just not too cool? And what a wonderful surprise and in my favorite color - purple! Thank you so much MJ. I will think of you my dear friend each time that I use these wonderful stitch markers.

Here is my crocheted blue wool sweater for PR. I used 100% wool (Patrons) and an I hook. The pattern was the World's Easiest Sweater and you can find a copy of it at Bev's site. I love this pattern! It can be adapted from child to adult and is so super easy - crochet it all in one piece - and.....for those of us who hate sewing pieces together - you have only two seams to sew! Super! I have already started another one and am 50% done with it - this pattern goes really quick!


This is a scarf that I made for my Pine Ridge Elder that I sponsor. I used brown wool tweed, made a tube on my blue KK loom, then tied the ends off. It makes a very warm scarf but is very simple to make. I hope that he will enjoy it.


This is my Guidepost T Sweater. It is needle knitted with 100% Patrons wool. It is a very simple pattern and makes a really nice sweater. I made it for the A4A kids and hope to get it in the mail next week. They have extended the deadline for the 900 sweaters for Kids until the middle of October so I hope to be able to get several more made before the deadline ends. If you have some extra wool around (must be 100% wool for A4A) consider making a sweater to keep these A4A kids warm.

I guess you can tell that I am on a sweater binge right now - I am in love with making sweaters right now. I guess the Fall temperatures that have come around here now is bringing thoughts of cool evenings and a nice warm sweater. I love Fall!

Well, I think that rounds it all up for now ...... until later.....happy knitting!
