Moving Right Along

So Lola is moving right along these days.  She is being so pleasant to stitch on.  I know I am coming close to where I set her down because I messed up somewhere and can't find it though.  I only have about a week left to work on her but today is a cooking day.  Here is where she is as of last night.

On Friday, I will start a stitch-a-long with the Mystic Stitch facebook group.  I spent some time winding all the floss and everything is prepped and ready to go.  I am excited about it.  So here is what I will be working on.

So that is my sharing for the day other than I managed to do two rows on the crocheted table cloth this week and I cast on a new sweater because I had nothing else to do.  Haha...I actually couldn't resist is the whole problem.

Well, I am going back to my cooking.  Taking care of potatoes today so will have hashbrowns and mashed potatoes prepped and in the freezer when I am done.

Happy Stitching!

Catching up

It has been a crazy time in my life.  Joys and sorrows combined.  Life is good and back to more joys than sorrows at the moment.  

A cute little bundle.

Here are some finishes.  These will be shipped this week to the cute little man above.

Now that those are complete, I have returned to my old projects.  I picked up Lola yesterday and made some decent progress on her.  Must have needed her bright colored dress to work on.

That picture looks a bit odd since the fabric looks huge but it is only 14 ct. aida.  Have a new phone I am taking pictures with and that might be why.

Also picked up my socks which have been languishing for months. 

Made some progress.
Started one new project which is a knit-a-long.  My friends and I started the Clapotis from the Fall 2004 edition of Knitty.  I have started the third section on this one.  Once again bright colors which I am loving.

The picture actually doesn't do the yarn justice. 

My son has been in driver's ed the past few weeks.  Soon I will have some new gray hair since I am the only one available for him to drive with.  Remember my daughter's driving and it kind of freaked me out.  Might get a lot of knitting done while he drives though as that helped to keep me calm when my daughter was driving.  Love her but she scared me. 

Will start a stitch-a-long with the Mystic Stitch facebook group on March 1.  This will be my first time doing a stitch-a-long with people I don't know.  Am looking forward to it. 
Also have to figure out something for the man's birthday.  Don't think he wants to admit he has a birthday coming.  Guess I better get going as he will expect to see me in an hour and my hair is still wet.

Happy stitching!
