McButter.....or Molly my model

By -
Molly's modeling career continues here on Irisheyesknitters. Al knit this one taking a fairisle pattern she liked and putting it on a hat. Dale of Norway. I think Molly deserves a hat ......She loves to wear them. This one is promised to another of Al's cousins for Christmas.

Leave it to dishcloth knitting to raise my confidence for my next pair of socks. Who knew? I found the round pattern interesting to knit. Me? Patterns? Interesting? I think I feel like knitting my STR Grand Canyon medium weight into Lisa Parker's Savannah socks. Has anyone knit her patterns out there?

Hmmmm, the Cubs won their division, looks like Northwestern will beat Michigan today, and I want to knit a sock with a pattern............what is going on? (Im still not a Cub fan.....They've done this before....but I am happy for all of you able to enjoy this..)

Rob was wondering if you were still "not a Cub Fan". I think Molly deserves a hat too! She is so cute!

Molly is a beautiful little girl - and deserves beautiful hats to wear! Both look wonderful in the photo!

I also wanted to mention, Kathy, that the purses I knit from Lion Suede are not going to be felted. Lion Suede is a 100% synthetic yarn, so it can't be felted. They have recently introduced a new product, Lion Wool(100% wool,) that they recommend for felting.

Have a great weekend!

What a beautiful hat for a beautiful girl (she does need one of her own). I've never knit a Lisa Parker pattern either. Good luck with your new sock!

 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...
