Loose Ends and License plates

By -



The Red Team is now tied with the Green Team. Sarah's picks are shown in this post. I love the Socks That Rocks skein she TOOK. It is very fun for me to see how the contents have changed so much since I sent the original boxes out. Get ready EMILY ........the box is on its way to ALABAMA now.

I saw both of these car plates this week and loved them. Have you seen a plate you liked or thought was clever this week?

This Chicago fan is rooting for the PACKERS tomorrow. (While I work of course.!!!)

Have you seen the KNITCIRCUS spring edition that just came out.? Hooray for BIANCE Boonstra of Lansingerland blog fame. Her FIREY lace shawl is on the COVER. Biance you ROCK. We are so proud to know you!

Finally, I am casting on today. Karen of Knittraps.blogspot.com is writing a vest pattern for me and she is writing out the reverse shaping word for word, row for row. THANKS Karen, here's to me finally learning reverse shaping this year......

Those license plates are great! I haven't seen any particularly good ones lately, especially since so many are buried under several feet of snow at the moment :) Happy weekend.

My license plate is IliniGo. I came out of Target the other day to find the car next to me with a plate that said ILLINI-it was from Michigan, which made it even funnier.

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...
