Not enough photographs

By -


I read on Donna B's QUIET LIFE blog today, that I should be shooting dozens more pictures a day to get some good ones.
That's the ticket! Here's Cricket with a few paws off the ground....and before we get to knitting, I'll give you the obedience class update. I can say for certain that there is no golden retriever in Cricket. Oh we have work to do. :)

Now to knitting. I found a little pair of booties that I will try. The last time I tried some little booties, they came out just okay. I found Sockpixies baby slippers the other day. They look so simple. I'm not even thinking that I can make them for all the babies on the way at work, but I can make a pair. Have you made them?

For tonight I'll stick with theTye dye yarn knitting. Since I have already ripped it out twice, I can say that it reknits very well. I haven't lost any yardage.

Time to get knitting instead of blogging!
I talk more in the comments!

That's a GREAT photo... pure joy in motion!

I did some cute little baby slippers a while back. Thanks for reminding me. I won't finish the blankie in time, but I can crank out some foot-coverings!

Cricket is so cute! He looks like a little love bug. Does he cuddle? Macy loves to cuddle but Max is too busy to bother. Maybe it's a boy/girl dog thing.

The Tye Dye yarn is so pretty that it will look good as anything.

I found a pattern for tiny little booties that work up really fast. I can make two pair in an evening.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I

  These are the one square bunnies .  They are a free pattern on Rave1ry.  I'm bunny making to force spring to come.  I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again.  The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town.  I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es.  It wi11 have to suffice for now.  I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring.  This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state.  But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it.   IT may have just gotten to 50.   Degrees.  I have to run.  There's very ear1y yardwork to do.   The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders.  I hope it is not frozen!  Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods?   I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s.  I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .

Do You Smile When You Knit???

I am pretty sure I smile when I knit.  I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress.  I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really.  I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back.  I surely scowl when I drop a stitch.   A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here.  Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.
