Earflap hat

Yes this is my husband impersonating a pixie. Don't tell him I said that. I have started a Earflap hat. My husband loves these hats, i have knitted them and crocheted them. Ended up having more luck with the crochet ones. This pattern is from the Lion Yarn Company Website. Free pattern but there website makes you register and log in, which is slightly irritating. Check them out. Lots of fun things. Here is a pic of of the arms of my Bridesmaid wrap from the Wedding Knits from Suss Cousins. They are coming along. I think I should have made them on larger needles. My body of the wrap is on #11, in K1, P1, these are ss on #8. We will see. I am not going to frog them. (at this point, talk to me later on LOL) For a lovely free bridesmaid or bridal wrap pattern see here. Here are my pups, both 2 years, Penny and Syd. Syd is the piggy one (75 lbs) in the lighter crate. It is about 1 degrees outside and they are spoiled. I have kidded that I was going to knit a doggy bag

Frogged pyramid sweater morphs to .....

Yes I am going to cast on something with my frogged yarn from my pyramid sweater this weekend. Really I am.....the yarn has been in a pile on my shelf silently mocking me, and making me feel guilty. Beautiful yarn, and it needs to become something beautiful. so I will search on the Internet, and magazines and books until I find the pattern that whispers to me, make me..... I am looking at this pattern right now, I think I would like something like this yet with row by row color changes, maybe more like this ?? I hope. So more on that soon. When I was having some fun I found this blog , as I am always trying to organize myself. I found this interesting. OK well maybe I don't want to be that organized, seem like it would take away from my knitting time. I have been having thoughts about quilting again. Today I was so excited, my girlfriend is pregnant!! This will be her 2ND, her first little girl is 9, and is a trisomy 8/cp. I am trying to decide if I should quilt, crochet or knit
