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

Knitting at the Hearts Content Cable Station for their 'Sense'ational Sunday. We had a tremendous time, with food, music and tons of ladies showing off thier talents.

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.

Fairisle Knitting Techniques

Looking forward to tomorrow with Shirley Scott. We are doing a workshop at the Hiscock House Provincial Historic Site on Fairisle Knitting Techniques, should be a fun day, any day with Shirl is a fun day.
Going to try some new colour combinations for my Diamond Striped hat later. Will post a pic when it's complete.
Sun is shining and there is a little breeze, a "large" kind of summer day.

It's been too long

I should be studying for an exam I have to write on Thursday night for my Tourism Supervisor Certification but my excuse is I'm taking a break! I can't believe I have not made a post since last October, so much has happened, I won't begin to tell you.
I continue to knit, fill my orders and create new and wonderful colour ways for my hats. I have been doing a Diamond Striped Hat with marino wool and the colour combinations are too many to share. I also did a hat with two greens and wine for the Cupids 400 celebrations.
