Knit one.... Purl two

Wow Lee you have been busy! You have one cotton candy mitt almost ready to wear!! You can do this and after all is done, you'll pass along your skills to your daughters.

I love all the pictures you've posted Katies Blanket is awesome, sounds like the title of a children's book? Something Stef should consider :)

Tea and Knitting was a great way to round out my week, it never feels like long enough. I can't wait to get together again.

I need to get a knitting circle going in my neck of the woods. Once a month would be nice. Ahhh life is so much fun, the potential for more never end.

Annie at knitting group...

Annie and I went to a little knitting group at the Stirling Library..We got together with a few others to think about the mittens for children program and share some apple cider and some yummy treats the children's librarian (Jaye) made. This is the first time Jaye has knit.

excuses, excuses...

Lee here....I really feel Zee is my security blanket/cheer leader/teacher....and without her around me, I have a difficult time getting started with something. I want to be an independant knitter..just for the logistics of it...I need to be able to figure things out and help Annie keep going too. Altho I have been knitting for a long time, Ive never really progressed beyond beginner and I would like to! I can't just do it and talk to people, answer children's questions, watch tv etc...knitting takes all my attention and I dont always have a couple of hours to just sit and knit...I know it's a very productive activity but it takes all my mental energy when I have those needles in my hands. I'm not making excuses here...I'm really trying to just think about this and help motivate myself and work through these perceived "barriers". I think I need a sleep over with Zee..

Dibs on the hat!!

This isn't in the knitting department but Kate made this in 4H...pretty cozy!!!

Annie modeling my new hat:)

Lee here...ok I didnt make this.....I called dibs on this hat Zee was knitting while we were visiting Kathee...She just whipped it up in no time..I really liked it and asked for it and she gave it to me!!!! Thanks Zeeeee!!
