New Projects


Made some really cute stitch markers this week, they are little sheep, 3 white and one black. I am also working on a wrap sweater, it will be gorgous. Bought the pattern at Loops, http://www.loopsknitting.com/ . Can't wait to post a pic of the finished project. We got our order of yarn in today so I will be very very busy for the next few days.
My little 9 yo daughter gets out of school for the summer and immediately leaves for 3 weeks, I am going to miss her so much.



Your Score: Katharine Hepburn


You scored 14% grit, 19% wit, 42% flair, and 28% class!



You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. Others might be more classically beautiful or conventionally woman-like, but you possess a more fundamental common sense and off-kilter charm, making interesting men fall at your feet. You can pick them up or leave them there as you see fit. You share the screen with the likes of Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant, thinking men who like strong women.

So Much to say..

Well we have been very very busy. Friday was a very busy, exciting, and just plain enjoyable. First I found a new friend last week and we got to meet, drink coffee, eat, knit, and just chat ALL day long. Since I rarely get to meet someone like me, it was great to get to sip coffee and talk. We spent about 6 hrs in the Utica Square shopping center, we hit Starbucks (ofcourse), the Pottery Barn, Bath and Body and last but not least Loops a Yarn Store. On that topic Loops will be carrying our hand painted yarn starting in about 3 weeks. YEAH I hope I am doing the right thing with this, but Etsy is just not moving fast enough. Well I gotta go dye some yarn. Be back soon.

Wow lots goin on




This first picture is on the newest addition to my home. Amazing huh! I have attempted a little spinning on it, but since I know nothing about spinning on a great wheel it was not the most productive. Going to be doing a lot of research and it ought to be fun.
Second is the socks i am currently working on, finished the first one last night. They will be a gift but can't say for who just yet.
Third is the shawl i made for a new friend. I took it to her yesterday and really think she liked it. I sure hope so!
We are about to start a contest on our blog http://temptedyarns.blogspot.com/ "name that yarn and win it" Hope we will have a great responce. Go check it out!
