What Would You Knit?

By -

 The Casbah is calling my name.  

 So here's my dilemma.  Should I knit a pair of amazing socks with the Casbah or should I knit a pair of long fingerless gloves with it?  Please chime in. 

 Beatles loves to be in the yard now that the warm weather is here.  My pretend dog.......  
Discovered these goldfish treats at the store the other day......the best part is you get 52 pieces for 4.5 grams fat.  It is a mix of graham,  chocolate and tiny white marshmallow fishies.  They are just okay....
I'm crazy for marshmallows lately.....My pretend dessert.....

I say mitts, the yarn is too beautiful to be hid on your feet.

I'd go with fingerless gloves but then, I'm not a huge hand knit sock wearing kind of gal!

Pretty yarn.

I say fingerless mitts, too. I have a pair in that color, and they go with everything, and make me happy.

Have you seen the flat rectangle smores shaped marshmallows? I feel like you could get creative Kathy!

Knit whatever you will use the most so you get the most pleasure out of the beautiful yarn. Personally, I would knit socks.

Personally, I would knit socks because that is what I would use the most in Louisiana... not much need for gloves/mitts here (and I forget to put them on when there is a need. I get to the car and then realize, I should have picked up my mitts!). So which would YOU use most often in Chicago? Do you NEED another pair of socks, of the mitts more? Of course sometime it is not about NEED, but a need to KNIT something fun. Keep us posted on what you decide!

Mmmmm...marshmallows. I used to keep a tea lite warmer on the kitchen island and roast some to make s'mores for a treat. I need to do this again. Soon.
Mitts or socks? I'm voting for mitts too since that blue is too much of an attention grabber for feet.

 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...
