Tomorrow I'm hoping to go to the LYS called Loops.

That's so nice! So generous of her!

I have the get off my clouds and one day I will knit it for me but somehow time always fails me.

I casted on a tester skirt for a newbie. She was born yesterday Zoe Eva
and she is tiny.. 6.5lbs and 17.5 " so this skirt won't fit her until maybe Valentines day.

I really like how that turned out!! I used to do that with my hair too when it was about that long.

So I need some critiquing from you ladies. This is the logo I came up with for the time being. What should I change and fix?? For now I'm going to leave pics/icons/etc out. That'll be an update if I can ever open an HC store.

Were you going to try to make the F's knitting needles, I can't remember? I liked that idea! Otherwise, I'm not super keen on the colors... But that's just me... someone else?

Love those!!

Wanted to do the bodice ruffle, but I didn't have time b/c I wanted to gift it to my brother's GF at her baby shower today. I tried it on my Ivey (she is 4 months, but wears 6-9 month size)--this is the 6-12 mo--it looked so cute!!! DH wanted to keep it for her, he loved it too.

Ooooh Charlene I just love it! You can't even tell anything's up with the buttons!

Mostly free stuff, the only ones I have paid for was a vista print one (order was free, I only paid shipping) and a doubleday bookclub one, which I did today for 675 swagbucks, and got books for xmas gifts (7 for $16). But that's the jist of it. I don't do anything special. I usually win for searching 2-3 times a day. I'm going to get a $50 as soon as I have enough..I'm at just over 4000 sb's right now.

That's a good idea. I just thought paypal for my wool addiction. LOL!

Awww I love pregnant bellies. I get huge, like everyone swears I must be having twins. I don't think you look too big.

Beautiful photography and beautiful girl.

Originally Posted by ELC Knits Yay, I got my spring green Cascade yarn from Shelly today and just waiting for the coordinating yarn to arrive from Heidi for Elliana's RHS or SH, still havent decided which yet. Probably another RHS since she has clearly outgrown the one I made her over a year ago... Still waiting on my yarn from Talia too for my grand opening, darn mailman - I told him today I bet he hides my packages from me and then just waits inside the building til he hears me throw a fit and laughs himself silly. Then next week the major haul should arrive - 5 skeins from a MMW coop, 12 skeins various knitpicks yarns and then the big 27 skein lot of KP Swish that I bought...thank goodness hubby is not home.. now - where to hide 44 skeins of yarn....

Hide them at my house Your cascade is on it's way. I need to find your DC number. The wind blew it somewhere in my suburban.

Super cute. All I have left is the button bands on the crotch. For some reason I am nervous I'm going to mess them up

[amandabarugh]

So, I have not been knitting the past few days because I've been having a yardsale!

Who had wanted Becoming Art's 1/4 Moon? I remember discussing with someone that they could have my extra that I got, and I finally got it in the mail today.
