This evening we went to the local Walmart. Before we left I looked and looked and looked for the disposible camera that has the pictures I took of various projects of mine–i.e. my kitchen curtains, misc. knitting projects, misc. sewing projects, etc.–and couldn’t find it! I will look again tomorrow, when dh isn’t fussing at me to hurry up, and see if I can find it. If I can’t, I will just have to get the other disposible camera and retake what pictures I can. UGH!
I finished the fuzzy cuffed socks that are to be stocking stuffers in an online quilting Christmas Stocking swap that I am in. They turned out rather cute, pics to come. They are a little big for my feet, but should (hopefully) fit my swappee. If they are a little big for her, she can wash them in hot water and they should shrink just a little, but not much.
I started a prayer shawl this evening. I have an online quilting friend who has been in poor health. She has had to have a number of sugeries since April, the most recent one just two or three weeks ago. Anyway, I thought the prayer shawl was the best and most appropriate gift that I could make/give to her. I do not know what the official prayer is, but thought I would write my own. I play at doing caligraphy, so plan on writing the prayer in caligraphy on parchment paper and including it with the prayer shawl when I send it.
I am using RedHeart yarns’ “PLUSH” in the light sage color. { ART. E719, color no. 9627} I haven’t seen a pattern like this, but is my best recolection of a stitch in a knitting pattern stitch book that I used to have. It is a basic basket weave pattern. Again, pics will be posted as soon as I can.
