Double Knitting Double the Fun

By -
 All of you who said you wanted to try double knitting, I have this to say to you: Do it!  
It is very fun.  I love to knit and not to purl, so you slip all the purl stitches.  You knit and you slip on both sides. 
Is that not enticing? 
I'm planning on finishing another coaster today.  
I'd like to knit a set of four for my Doctor for Thanksgiving. 
I see him Monday so I'm under a little deadline.  
Double is the word of the day here....so I give you Westely and Humpedink.  So so cute cute. 
Here Kitty kitty.

This post reminds me of the old Doublemint commercials that featured twins. Wow, that really dates me doesn't it?

Hey Kathy!!!
Good luck with your coasters, Kathy! Sounds like you are on a roll! ;)
I'm not gonna consider learning that for now, I'm really continuing on my blanket, every day some more.
Thanks for the kitties, they always make me smile!
Have a lovely day!

Still working on the Christmas stockings, but some day I'll try that. Have you tried knitting 2 socks at the same time, one inside the other? That's a challenge I failed! LOL

Double trouble! I'm glad you're enjoying the coasters and double knitting. Still, can't manage learning anything new at this point in the year. ack! Will have to queue up that skill!

I bet those two can be double trouble! Your coasters are a great idea and I know they will be enjoyed by your doctor. I finished the sweater and am taking the weekend off from knitting to bake cookies with granddaughter.

I wish my kitties would use one of those scratching toys. You should see my furniture.

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.
