Home Again!

Hi, everybody! Thanks for the nice comments from my last post. I had a very nice trip downstate. About 4 and a half hours of uninterrupted knitting time! On the way there and on the way back! Whoo-Hoo!! Thanks for driving Cindy! hehe. I finished this Panta earwarmer. I guess it's a headband, but I did mine out of some handdyed wool, left over from a purse I knit forever ago. It'll keep my ears warm in the Michigan weather! Now, keep in mind, I took this picture early this morning in my jammies with NO makeup on and my hair not even brushed, so be nice!

Man, I look tired! Cindy's family took such good care of me this weekend. I was totally spoiled and I should look a little more rested. Payment for being driven the whole way is a Panta earwarmer for Cindy. I can do that! (She even bought the yarn!) I started it on the way home, and I'll finish it soon! What a quick knit!

I got Cindy all addicted to knitting. Hehe, you should see her sock. She was even knitting at the dinner table, well, under the dinner table. Oh, oops, I think that was a secret. Haha! My jaywalker got a tiny bit longer, and I did a few rows on the Marji scarf.

My kids don't have school today, so I've gotta go play some games, and stuff. I'm trying to catch up on all of the blog postings everyone did. I was only gone a few days, I don't know how I got so far behind!

Just keep knitting!! LOL!

glad to hear you had a good time with Cindy. :) That Panta looks really thick! I need something like that because my ears tend to get cold quickly. Nice color too. :) BTW,who says we all have to look like movie stars when we get up in the morning??

Look who had a nice weekend! (green monster banging on my keyboard right about now!)

She was knitting under the table? What did you do to her???

You look pretty good if I must say so for someone just out of bed. I certainly wouldn't share my 'just out of bed' picture. It's ghastly. Actually, I could probably enter it on the 'monster-a-long' as my offering and they wouldn't be any wiser! Lol.

From what I hear you're going to need that in Michigan. Very cute!

Nice jammies:) Is my panta done???:) No hurry. Scarf will take a while as I switch back to quilting for the meeting tonight. Found three knitted scarves and a hat last night and have another to knit. But thankfully they will all be different colors. They are so beautiful too.

Don't you love a good long car trip just to knit? I love your headband and your early morning PJ photos!!

Sharon said...

Panta is lovely and you look a lot better than me in the morning let me tell you ;)

I finally catch up with my blog reading and then before you know it I am miles behind again, oh well!!

The Panta looks great! I really like making those. There was another "panta" out before the one on crafsters. It's the Drops Garn studio one and they now have it on their free site here http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/en/visoppskrift.php?d_nr=86&d_id=10&lang=us
