I have binders for charity knitting, crochet, sweaters, mittens, etc. So I think I have about 15 binders.<br /><br />2. Snuggling and feeding babies in the church nursery. We've been blessed with lots of babies in the past years.<br /><br />3. So far I've knitted on mittens, socks and a shawl today.<br /><br />4. I can't swim at all. And I mean at all! I can't even float.<br /><br />5. OOOOOHHHH! Indy dyer sock yarn. I would love to be able to buy some but it's not in the budget.<br /><br />6. Love in action. People helping other people. I don't know how I would photograph that but the world definitely needs more kindness in it and I would love to catch an example on film.<br /><br />7. Legacy Knitz Podcast. It's hilarious.<br /><br />8. Ice Tea, but we have it in the refrigerator all year. I really don't change my habits in the summer.<br /><br />9. None of the above thank you very much! :-)<br /><br />That was fun.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-66467758414926883802016-06-27T20:28:09.272-05:002016-06-27T20:28:09.272-05:00Good questions and I enjoy reading your answers! ...Good questions and I enjoy reading your answers!

If it's in a book, I tend to snap pictures of the instructions onto my phone.<br />2. The last time I bottle fed a baby was probably six years ago when my first godson was a baby. I haven't babysat my brother's firstborn; I was too busy w/PTA then in the city. We never watched the youngest; he's a mama's boy and even rejects my brother. We live farther away anyways now.<br />3. I'm am trying to finish this sock.<br />4. No; I can barely freestyle. I tread better than swimming a lap.<br />5. Indie sock yarn.<br />6.

He hates the bottle though so I mixed it with cereal and spooned it in.<br />3. Son's gray cardi sleeves and my Featherweight's bottom ribbing.<br />4. No for the same reasons you have.<br />5. Sock yarn of course but I do love my Craftsy.<br />6. A simple flower. My plant photos are terrible.<br />7. Look at Fait Main over on my side bar. It's in French but the woman is a MACHINE.<br />8. Ice water. I keep a small pitcher on the counter all day and make myself drink it.<br />9. Animals. Dead people scare me. If I had a radio voice I would have a podcast but I sound like Minnie Mouse on crack.<br />Araigneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543030200956480168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-67974403430168474662016-06-27T14:47:49.511-05:002016-06-27T14:47:49.511-05:00Answers are on my blog: http://pointylittlesticks...Answers are on my blog: http://pointylittlesticks.blogspot.com<br /><br />Now feeding baby KITTENS would be right up my alley!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-40204464786625720942016-06-27T14:36:36.587-05:002016-06-27T14:36:36.587-05:00*Where do you keep your favorite old patterns?

Far too long - a couple of decades.<br />3. I'm knitting a Hitchhiker scarf out of Noro Sock Yarn - I love the vivid colors.<br />4. I'm not a swimmer - no flip and turn for me.<br />5. Hmm, good choices - I'd take the mystery box.<br />6. I'd like to get at least one good selfie - not going to happen, believe me I've tried and tried.<br />7. I've found some good knitting patterns on Pinterest.<br />8. Beer - I only drink it in the summer and then only a couple in the warm summer months.<br />9. Given the choices, I would like to talk to animals.Tired Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17285635623675889289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8588167.post-76586343054843994212016-06-27T12:27:37.197-05:002016-06-27T12:27:37.197-05:001.

I'm running out of storage space but I can't give up any of my patterns!<br />2. Last August I was able to feed sweet baby great-granddaughter. Later I fed 2 year old great-granddaughter mac and cheese while she sat in my lap. It was a messy affair and I loved every minute of it!<br />3. I'm making a ruffled sleep cap for a family member who is having chemo. It is so cute I can't wait to finish.<br />4. I'm an old competitive swimmer so yes, I can do a flip turn. Also, I have hit the wall many times. I don't know a swimmer who hasn't which is probably why we are all a bit addled.<br />5. I love surprises so mystery gift would be my choice.<br />6. I try to get the perfect picture of the pups but they move too fast. I would love to take a portrait quality photo of them.<br />7. I haven't looked at any new pattern sites for a while, probably because I can't find a place for the patterns I already have.<br />8. I drink iced tea year round but in the summer I drink twice the amount of water I drink in the winter, which is a lot!<br />9. I would love to talk to animals! I already to talk to the pups but I would love to really know what they are saying back.
