Locker room rendezvous

We are having fun at work, stitching. Any stitching is good. I started knitting on break and lunch. This expanded to one girl who wanted to learn to knit, that turned into 4 to learn to knit. Now we have 2 learning to crochet also, with another making noises about learning. We have total newbies. Women who "used" to crochet, and a occasional spontaneous person who sets down and learns to knit one or two stitches. Usually we would sit and put our feet up for awhile and grump. Now I hear chatter and see smiles. I even had a illicit meeting in the locker room, for a emergency baby blanket stitch consult. LOL Keep on Knitting....

Sunset..

A lovely sunset...

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
