Once thing has stayed constant... ONE COLOR. I've never used more than one color in ANYthing...and yes... it was because I'm a big fat chicken. <a href="http://chronicennui.typepad.com/">Kim</a> has been doing her <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/yorkiegirl/deep-in-the-forest-mittens">mitts</a> like all get out and I would gawk in awe..All the talk about dominant yarn and hold it in the correct hand, and trapping, etc. etc.. so I stayed the hell away from that blooming chaos... til last Friday.. I decided that I WAS GOING TO DO TWO COLORS, and no stripes.. but good ole stranded knitting.. So, I used yarn I had in my stash and sat down w/a couple of great knitting friend's home for the opening ceremony of Olympics 2010... Course, I never GOT A CHANCE to cast-on b/c my current project was using the needles I needed for the cast on!... so I quickly finished another <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rose-red">RoseRed</a>, in a beautiful IceBlue... (matches my ski jacket - and no I don't ski - so I guess I should start referring to it as my puffy coat)...</div><div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2ccp2nYTGgPhe6ZOkRuUNg8BPfvZf48bX1Uro_S49dY1UV2gJZN_3M1XyZdj0tonB6BcYN06o17HJpTvGVTHpp-_JCqZXYsexlLhulwDA3HkOTOidu9-zQSCLfMaqwPjll7F0qqDU9hA/s400/100_0259.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439330710581067778" /><div style="text-align: center;">Yarn is Sublime Angora Merino 2 skeins</div></div><div style="text-align: center;">Needles are sz4 and sz6</div><div style="text-align: center;">Mods - after the last cable twist, I k2, p2tog p1. then did a 2x2 rib for an inch... this made for a grippier band.</div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyhow, I cast-on a little later that night.. </div><div style="text-align: center;">and behold...

I have been busy with all things knitting.. just havent had much to say 'about' the knitting.. I've finished up the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/lace-wrap">'shawl of doom'</a>, which I plan on wearing this Saturday night to my first Fireman's Ball. <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/drifted-pearls-3">Drifted Rubies </a>in a beautiful deep red Alpaca, the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/burberry-inspired-cowl-neck-scarf">Burberry Cowl </a>was all in the blocking, as was <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/scrumptious-neck-warmer">Scrumptious Cowl</a>.. in yummy Naturblassen (you must try this yarn!!!!). I saw Jared's Grove mittens and had to make a <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/grove">pair</a>. Of course, they were gifted away, so I must make these again, for me! There's was a baby on the way for friends of ours and I had to try a <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/nora-baby-jacket">baby sweater</a> and the sweetest of all <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/clara">Baby Dresses</a>... Plus a new <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/champs-elysees-beret">hat</a> for C.. which she loved so much her friend wanted one also.. and then finished off with a most beautiful yarn that Kimmy gifted me.. The yarn was perfect for this lovely <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/tlcknits/damson">shawlette</a>... I had exactly 10inches left after cast-off... 'Phew...'..<br /><br />I apologize for all the links.. I got a new laptop.. and well, the photos are only now visible in Ravelry.<br /><br />Take care.TLCknitshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04215307156303253995noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442592032351948228.post-68559054126276192852009-11-08T17:33:00.005-05:002009-11-08T18:08:58.694-05:00Happy November!This past weekend, I spent a day shopping with my Mom, Sis and Aunt...My mom just turned 65 yrs old last week.. I love my family and wouldn't trade them for anything... It was fun.. LOTs of laughs.. A lil background.. My parents were divorced when I was 4 years old... I grew up with my Mom and Sister along with somewhat yearly visits from Dad (unfortunately we weren't close as a result of this- tis OK, water under the bridge).. Anyhoo.... My Mom and Sis are famous for just saying things off the tops of their heads, no real thought... Now, they're not ding-bats or dumb asses...They just move and talk REALLY fast... Who would have thought someone could speak faster than I???? Anyhow... Due to this personality trait, it makes for VERY FUNNY TUMMY-HUGGING TEARS STREAMING LAUGHTER...<br /><div><div></div><br /><div>Mom was in Shmanera bakery (deli) ordering her lunch.. </div><br /><div>The boy behind the counter took her order.. and asked what she heard as:</div><br /><div></div><div>Teenage Boy: "Would you like a quickie?"</div><div>Mom: "A quickie? What's a quickie?" (she said this VERY LOUD)<at></div><div>Teenage Boy: <beet>"Would you like a COOOOKIE?"</div><br /><div>Mom: "OH, no thanks!"</div><br /><div></div><div>Aboard a plane bound for Aruba, Mom and I are sitting there, HER with headphones on watching a movie... It must have been a rather loud part of the movie, therefore, my Mom, at the top of her lungs ' HEY TRAY? CAN YOU SEE MY MUSTACHE? I BLEACHED IT LAST NIGHT, DOES IT LOOK YELLOW?' I crawled under the seat </div><div></div><br /><div>When coming out of SHmop and SHtop, my mom flew open the driver side door, hopped in and threw her purse across into the passenger seat and hit a little old lady sitting there.!!! The little old lady yelled. My mom yelled!...Needless to say.. my Mom then went to go and find HER car!</div><br /><div></div><div>My Sister was driving and her hubby following her in a van... They are pulled up side by side at a red light... My brother in law, puts his van in reverse and makes his van slowly roll backwards.. Whereby.. making my sister feel like HER car is rolling forward, and she was pumping that brake like all-get-out and yelling!!!!!! </div><div></div><br /><div>I know these stories may not be all that funny to you.. I"m writing them down just so I DONT FORGET.. ;0) So.. in the event, they don't make you smile... </div><br /><div>here's <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/laurel-3">Laurel</a> in Reynolds Revue.. </div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401870966266352786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyvK-W4eBQPrSeUwUaLrnzaBOTzmW16DK_l4ez_RiGqHs_mlIcNeBeMZgb33h7g5iBj41E3iEK3e5CgE-axg4awiLsYgThDs7vDkHLNHeKHgYN91d1LH4R2mdi6Aro2tk9swpwcZkw1Og/s400/laurel+004.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><div>The color truly is bright Orange as it's C's favorite color at the moment...
