OH NO......HELP!!!!

This pattern has been in my family for generations. One small problem.....I've never done it.
My aunt made this for my dog Pebbles. (Yes, she thought she lost it at that moment). Pebbles pulled a thread during one of her scratching episodes.
Can it be saved? Or should I learn the pattern so I too can pass it on to future generations?????? Jeeves would know :)

what's in the bag?

We are headed to Orlando this weekend, to attend a party.

I'm one of those people that take several projects with me .....just in case.

What's in the bag?..

Remember Leslie's comment on being alike, well I started the Mastercard (January 29, 2007) socks. I too liked the colorway.

Also in the bag is this fun needlepoint belt canvas by Susan Roberts. I'm stitching it with 1 ply Impressions.



Have a GREAT weekend...finally, nice weather has arrived.

P.S. Thanks Leslie for paving the way. YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!

i did it!!




i have been knitting for years and have never dove into the whole sock thing...don't ask me why. i finally finished my first pair. the pattern is socks with cable out of Debbie Bliss Home, using Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino on size 3 double points. a few adjustments were made (short row heel) but all in all they were pretty fun and a quick knit.
thanks so much for making me feel soooo welcome........i am a little nervous about this blogging thing!!! does that feeling ever go away?

it just depends on how the ball will fly!

hello there!
In an attempt to chronicle the needle works of my life, I am starting this blog.
I hope to be inspired and perhaps inspire as well.
I may throw little bits of my life in also..........I guess it all depends on how the ball will fly!
welcome!
