Late to the Party, but I'll share

By -




I'm usually late to the party and last to know, but if anyone out there hasn't baked cookies on a silicone sheet, do give it a try!
Al's boyfriend Pete suggested I try it and it made a world of difference is my cookies. Baked them all even and purdy!

The lovely Carol is kntiting the PURL BEE's WHit's Knits Mobius cowl. Isn't her yarn gorgeous.? The pattern calls for Alchemy's Kozmos in silk, mohair, wool and cotton blend. Not sure if Carol is using Alchemy but I love her yarn and colors. The pattern is free and looks clear cut and easy to read! I think I must put this on my list of things to knit up this year!

CORRECTION: CAROL IS USING RITTRATO and making her cowl from a Cat Bordi pattern.

Lastly, Rosalyn wished to be prominent in the FO sock picture! I had some serious second sock syndrome with this pair but prevailed last night. My first pair of alpaca sox. Can't wait to wear them all this cold day. I finally like the way colors pooled ina knit up. I am not a fan of pooling, but didnt these come out kind of good?

Are you late to a party???
I talk more in the comments!

Tom just got a silpat as Christmas gift from my sister, with bread pans, all kinds, 2 bread books, and flour and yeast. He hasn't used it yet, but is looking forward to it

I love the pooling on your socks. Congrats on prevailing and finishing.

I've never tried a silicone cookie sheet but those are some seriously good looking cookies in that box picture!

Late? For everything!

Silicone sheets are great, aren't they? So is parchment paper - have you used that? Cut out a circle for the bottom of your cake pan and your cakes will never stick again.

 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...
