Welcome Summer of 2011!!!

SUMMER 2011 IS HERE!

This is the first hat of Summer 2011!! On June 1st, there will be a count down for Disney posted! Yes we're going to Disney on June 26th, and also to Hogwarts! The reason of participating of the Harry Potter Knitting/Crocheting House Cup! This is another hat dedicated to the Harry Potter... no it's not the HP's houses colors (I personally don't want to get burned out on it.) Yes.. it's also exclusive because the background is the title page of my scrapbook! I thought of doing something different with the background so there you go.

Remember those summer days, the lemonade stands when you were just a little kid, playing hop-scotch with your neighborhood friends, catching fireflies, and watching 4th of July fireworks?

This is the Lemonade baby hat!

Sock bags are done!

The sock bags are done! Fabric glued, sewed and everything! No... I'm not sure if I'm going to add the I-Cords or not. I'm guessing it's about 80 yards per bag-for the knitgirlll's Stash Dash 2011. Enjoy the photos-sorry a bit blurry. The lights weren't on in the kitchen.

Enjoy!

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day everyone! Thank you especially for the troops who serve our country!

Anyways... last night I finished the Charlie Brown & Lucy sock bag plus Mom's sock bags! Photos will be coming soon. I'm also finishing up a page in the scrapbook today, and hopefully get the photos later this week-maybe today or tomorrow the earliest. I hope. What's a scrapbook without photos? Haha. I'm also hoping to finish the first green sock today, and get to my blanket at some point. Last night I couldn't decide if I should try to untangle the yarn so I can work on it. MM... didn't happen.

Happy Memorial day!

Knitting Scrapbook

So I LOVE crafts, any time. I hope to start dying yarn soon after we move. We're too busy this summer with everything sadly. But anyways. I started the title page for my knitting scrapbook. I already order the prints from Shutterfly. I want my scrapbook to be girly as possible-I know... but it's knitting right? Not that I'm saying that knitting is girly haha. I'm figuring I'll do a page a day with my scrapbook so I won't have to stress about it and have fun with it. Plus I'll post a page a week (I'll choose Saturdays for this.) Scrapbook Saturdays! I love that... even though it is Sunday. But I love Saturdays. I'll also create a page for this if I have enough pages (Blogger only allows 10 pages.. not bad.)

Happy Knittings!

Harry Potter Knitting-May 2011

So as May 2011 is now ending for Harry Potter knitting (finally May is ending!) June is a very exciting month for us (my family and me a couple of friends.) But let's talk about Harry Potter! I turned in my History of Magic socks (a Christmas gift for someone) and it looks like it'd be Hermonie's style. I got approved! I'm so excited and I can't wait for June knitting for the HP. I've heard there may be new assignments but I'm not sure yet. But I got approved! Yippee!!

Happy Knittings!

Getting better

So today I can see a difference from yesterday and yes I'm feeling a little better! I wouldn't say a lot, but a tiny bit. I'm blowing my nose less, but still blowing my nose every now and then. I actually got a lot of knitting accomplished than I planned too even though I got a rough start. Never start your knitting mornings when you untangle yarn and have startis at the same time! That's the helpful tip of the day! Yes.. that sums up my morning and no-I did not end up rolling up the yarn into a ball, and yes-I'm sad about it.

However-good updates this time! I got the fabrics glued together...however I have to wait until tomorrow to really finish up the bags. (Have to wait until 24 hours after I glue it... sigh..) but at least I got that part done!

And I casted another sock yay! And I have 3 1/2 inches (I think) on it. Wohoo!! I started this sock over three times since I was trying out a pattern, but then I decided to stick with the same pattern. This is for the Knitgirlll's stash dash and a Christmas gift.

Hermonie's Socks/Midnight Stroll

So here is the photo of the Midnight Stroll Socks!! It's self striping which made the knitting fun! Even though I was sick of knitting on the socks (well I enjoyed it a little bit too).. by the second sock was about to end. (Maybe I was just sick?) Anyways, here's the socks photo, and I'm so happy I got the first Christmas gift done!
