A fun meme and knitting pics of an FO!

Year End First Sentence Meme

I copied this from Kat's blog.
The idea: Post the first sentence from each month of 2006.

Since I have only been blogging for a few months, I don't have the whole year covered, but I thought it looked fun, so I'm doing it anyways! :)

June: Well, here goes!

July: Poor MM, he is 13, and the middle child!

August: First of all.

September: Ok, I'll tell my secret.

October: Marji from Fiber Arts Afloat sent me a package!!

November: Ha, ha, I'll get back to knitting next time!

December: Well enough for now, anyway!

Ok, on to other things. Thank you all for the comments on the pinwheel blanket, and my Fake Isle hat.

The hat is done, blocked and all! I love this hat, I love the yarn, too. It looks so great, if I do say so myself. So, one more time, thanks Amy for the great pattern, and thanks to g-girl for the awesome yarn. I swear I'm done going "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" LOL!

I am most definitely knitting another one of these hats as soon as I get some more SWS. I'll still work on the UFOs I have laying around here, I SWEAR!

I actually had a little SWS and a bunch of the Merino left, so a started a little sock for a bar of soap. Soap in a sweater. Haha. It's feltable wool and soy stuff, so as it is used it should felt on the bar, right? I guess we'll see.



I'm going to go knit on that lil' sock thingy and the pinwheel blanket. Hope everyone's weekend was great. As you can see from the pics of me up there, mine was pretty exhausting. (Tired, pale looking lady!) Shopping wears me out, but I am done! Now, I just have to wrap it all.
Knit on! No tink!

That hat is GORGEOUS! I want to make one of my own now. I wonder whether it will work with the leftover Silk Garden I have.
