Igor!

Well it's been a week! The anticipation of my birthday and a visit from my sister, brother and sister-in-law and then the unwanted arrival of Igor! September 21st will never have the same meaning again. Through it all Sue and I knit and created coffee cup cozies, cowls and hats, I think the knitting as always kept us calm and gave us something to do when we felt so helpless. Thank you Harold and Sue for being here with me and sorry Jean didn't make it, there will be other birthdays for us to be together.

Yoga Socks #2

I have finished my second pair of yoga socks. They don't look as good in this picture as the pair on my granddaughter's foot, put I had no foot to put them on!! They have been put in the mail to a special friend. When you receive this package let me know your thoughts? Hope you enjoy your yoga class on the 18th.

Yoga Socks

My granddaughter was recently visiting and brought the pattern and wool for me to knit her a pair of yoga socks. One way not to have to turn the heel!!
It's been another interesting week at work, our new display is nearly finished and then we will be able to open to the public, can'[t wait to hear the comments.
It's a beautiful day for the end of August, great berry picking weather if one wasn't working.

Another Week

The time is flying by so fast. A very quick trip to Corner Brook for the wedding of two wonderful friends. Home again and now have my granddaughter visiting for two weeks or so. Busy week ahead with Trinity Festival and THS auction. Will fit some time in to knit along the way. Erika wants yoga socks knit before she goes home on the 27th. A mini sock wars type of effort!!

A foggy Wednesday

It is so foggy right now and it might be raining, it's so dark I have to turn the lights on to see what I am knitting. Just a simple scarf today, what I call my mindless knitting project. Only thing you have to do is remember to change the colour after so many rows and remember to change on the same side to keep one side good!!!

'Sense'ational Sunday @ Hearts Content Cable Station

Fairisle Knitting 101

See How It's Made, Fairisle Knitting 101, held at the Hiscock House Provincial Historic site Trinity. We had a wonderful workshop on Thursday with Shirley Scott (Shirl the Purl) and learned several new techniques including "Corrugated Ribbing" and "Steeking". There were tons of laughs and food of course.
