Beautiful Yarn

Wilma, Wilma, Wilma this is the MOST Beautiful yarn I have ever seen in my life!!
So very COLORFUL!!!!!!! Perfect for a fair isle mitten. I can hardly wait to start designing a mitten just for this yarn.
I will use a bright white for the contrast color. It should just pop with the white next to it!!
This yarn has yellow, orange, black, purple, and red!! A very fire-y mix. Just so perfect!!
Thank You so very much Wilma!!!!!!!!!! :)
Hand spun PERFECTLY!!!!!!!!

The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs

This is a story about the lives of the members of The Friday night Knitting Club. Ladies that meet every Friday at a Yarn Shop, to knit, and to chat, and to become friends. You learn about the club members lives, hopes, and dreams. I can usually tell how a book is going to end after I read chapter 7, in any book. This book was different. I was surprised by the ending. Not all books have a happy ending where every one lives happily ever after, and this is one of those books. I am going to pass this book on to one of my dear knitting friends to read.

Where did I go wrong???

Where did I go wrong?? My only excuse is, I have been very , very busy the last few months, and have had not much time for knitting. I have 2 children getting married 21 days apart this summer. And I have been working on both weddings so much. Any way I did the toe area different on each sock. LOL I guess that I am not good at planning weddings, and knitting socks at the same time. I do like the pattern, and if I knit it again, I would knit the leg part longer, and I would make sure the toes matched!!! The pattern is called Faux Cable Socks, and I used Knit Picks yarn in the color tulip.

Cup Cakes

Casey and Grandma baked and frosted chocolate cupcakes!! Yum, YUM!!!!
Then we went out to the pool, and soaked up a full 90 minutes of SUN!!!!!
What a great way to spend a Saturday!

The Brides

The Bridal shower was today. Everything went well. The Brides were happy!

It was worth all of the work.

My Dancing Shoes

Want to see my dancing shoes??? Finally I have found a pair of shoes that I think I will be able to dance in at the weddings! I didn't want to high of a heel, so that I can still dance in them. And I didn't want a low heel because I didn't want to look like a dork!
So this is what I settled for. I sure hope that I can dance in these shoes. I suppose that I should practice dancing in them at home, so that I don't break my leg at either one of the weddings!!
