Knitpicks oatmeal Elegance and Huck golden retriever model. The yarn is for

scarfSTYLES Here and There Cables For my Mother's Christmas gift. Total cost 30.05.

I have a feeling this is going to take me until Christmas Eve. :) The gift of this

gift is that I have found a perfect yarn for a sweater for ME that won't show dog

hair. Ahhh serendipity, I'm thankful for you.

What's with the doublespace look today, you may be asking? Well, I'm having some

vision issues again, and I wondered if this is a more reader friendly presentation

for you? Do you like it? Let me know.

I have also reached another milestone: I checked a LARGE print book out of my

library the other day. This was done accidentally, but I am liking the easy on the

eyes effect it has on me. I hope this post is easy on your eyes!

Geez hope your eyes settle down and quit making mischief for you. Love the baby stuff. Very nice. For a Marillac girl (ducking).

I always enjoy your posts Kathy.

The double spaced is a nice touch

and easier to read. Keep it coming!

As a golden owner, this picture

ranks right near the top of your

posts. We got carpet to match the

dog so the hair is less

noticeable. Only a golden person

would understand that.

The color is just too good!

How do you like the KnitPicks yarns? I'm thinking of ordering some. Obviously the price is a big part of that.

Enjoying reading your blog!

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 ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
