Meet Tink!

Hi!

My name is Tink!

I was rescued from a local hotdog stand (by this really nice lady (C's godmother), when I was just 5 weeks old.. I'm a big girl now (almost 8 weeks!) as soon as I saw this little girl, I knew she had to be my new mommy!... I love playing with my toys and having my belly rubbed.

YAY! Twins!

My next door neighbors had a set of twins.. Boy and girl... This is for Chloe... Yarn is Punta del Este - Lava Space dyed.... working on the boys.. in the same yarn just in muted blue tones.. :)

Happy 4th of July!

The Loopy Lace Scarf


Pattern called for sz4 needles and Frog Tree Alpaca Melange.I started and got about 3inches into the start.. and it was resulting in such a tight fabric. So, I frogged and upped the needle size to sz6s... and started again.. STILL to tight.. not lacey nor loopy...
Lastly, I upped to sz8s for the honeycomb pattern throughout the scarf.. HOWEVER, for the keyholes (yes, there are TWO of them)... I used sz4 needles, so that it tightened up and had clean neat lines... I think I'll lightly block it...but I'll leave it up to LYS Judy to decide...

Have a good week all!

I know I know.. it's been like FOR-EVAH...I've been teaching a Domino class at the LYS. This is a first for me... As Kimmy politely said, 'Just don't yell at them'... LOL!

Fallen Leaf Scarflette

Yay!!! I finished this...

I wish I could say it was fun...Let's just say...it was a bit challenging..LOTS of yo's...and the mohair was a bit tricky using nickel plated needles and sticky when you have to rip out a few stitches... but I'm happy with the end result.. It will make a nice gift.

Used Sz 6 needles.. and one skein Madil Yarns Kid Seta that was gifted to me by Judy! a doll.. in a pale pale pink, of which I had less than one yard left!

2 days left

So.. This whole Lent thing... 

When hubby and I were married, he asked that our future children be brought up Catholic. I didn't have a problem with it.. I had MANY a friend who were and they turned out OK (mostly).. ;).. and afterall I was marrying a Catholic... So, this year, I tried to set a positive example and sacrificed (gave up) something for lent... What that was? BUYING YARN!.. I decided for the next 40+ days.. that I shall ONLY knit from what was in the stash.. ONLY!!! 

Here's one stash buster
