New stuff

Ok, I hope I didn't freak ya all out last time with my silliness. (especially you Maia) I was just goofing around as usual. I am a little crazy sometimes, in case you haven't noticed yet. I try to calm it down a little for the blog, but sometimes it just spills out.

I have started a new project.

It's the Split Neck T Shirt from Knitting Pure and Simple. Their patterns are really clear and easy. I hope to make a lot of progress on this one today at the voice competition. I will probably be knitting like a crazy woman just to avoid a panic attack. I'm using pink Cotton Ease from the stash - yay!

Ok I am mentioning Maia again. Not because I am obsessed with her or anything, but because yesterday I received this in the mail from her.





Yupp that's a skein of her gorgeous handspun. I just love it! It is the softest green color, and she even made her own tag! Thanks again Maia.










I also wanted to let you all know that my friend's sock pattern is now available.










Go here to check it out.

Brodie says Hi ya all!

Always enjoy your blog, Lisa. I don't know what address to use to list you as a fav. Remember I'm a beginner here.

Beautiful handspun! Do you have any plans for it yet?

I really like the Knitting Pure & Simple patterns. I have a couple waiting for me to get to them too. I pulled out my Pink Cotton Ease from the stash the other day too. I am think I might make the Sitcom sweater.

Ooo, thanks for the heads up re: Jeanie's new pattern! I've been considering that same P&S pattern, so I look forward to seeing how yours turns out. Hi to cute Brodie, too. : )

Your Split Neck Shirt is going to looks really gorgeous with this pretty yarn! I have the pattern here too and have been meaning to try my hands at it for so long now - never got around to it so far, so I'm certainly curious to see more progress pics of yours - and thus get inspired to start mine!
I love your doggie by the way, what a cutie!!!
