Been gone a while...

Things have kinda sucked. My husband and I went to

Arizona Thanksgiving week to visit his family. I get a

message from my mom that a friend shot himself. She calls

me the next day and tells me he's not going to make it,

and will probably be taken off life support the day after Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving morning my last grandparent, my grandpa (dad's dad)

passed away. Grandpa's funeral was Nov. 31, 2009. The very next day

December 1, 2009.. My daddy suddenly passed away.... Our friend

passed away the day after my daddy.. I still can't believe my daddy

is gone. My mom has no income so my husband and I have moved in

with her. Back in Llano.. Where I really didn't want to be.. Oh well..

My husband and I were thinking about moving to Arizona... Actually

I brought it up to him, thought he was going to pass out... We want to take

mom out with us next time we go..Hopefully this year.. I have 2 weeks of

vacation to use up before the year is over... Maybe that will convince her

to maybe want to go someday... I think it would help her breathing.

She has copd... Anyway.. I have been crocheting.. Some of the stuff I have

posted I don't have aymore thanks to the people we used to rent from here

a while back.. UGH! But... I have a cousin who is expecting! So I have been

working on some stuff for baby Lola!

Another not crochet post LOL

Here is my latest knit project

It's bigger then the original pattern

because I used the yarn I had LOL..

Thanks to my friend Becca for letting me borrow

some knitting books that were her

grandmas.. This book teaches you in sections

different stitches

and techniques, then gives you patterns

to use the stitches you just learned..

It's called Beehive Steps To Knitting

It's an old book with black & white pics

Doll's bonnet

I am also in the process of making a knit dishcloth

I have a few more rows until I am finished with it.

Knitting fatigues my hands more then crochet does

& I knit even tighter then I crochet

so I feel like this thing is taking forever to finish!

It's been a while...OOPS! LOL

Here are my latest things...

This purse is my own design..

Color didn't show very good.. May have to

try & take it outside & get a pic..

I used RHSS Burgundy.

This is my first lined bag.

I will put up the pattern when I

get finished cleaning up the writing LOL

Filet Shawl

I got this pattern on Crochetville

It is the first shawl I have ever made

I used RHSS Cafe & edged it with RHSS Aspen

Not crochet...LOL

I have been teaching
myself to knit...
This is the first thing
I have done...

My 1st knit potholder :)
