Back to Work

Well I did promise you some updated pics of the shawl and scarf, So here they are:



And:



So there you are folks, I know there isn't a huge difference but on my 7 days off I don't have a whole lot of time to knit. We spent 2 days on the road down to Edmonton and the time of day we were driving meant that the sun was shining right into my eyes which made travel knitting difficult. *Sigh* Oh well I did get done at least a little bit LOL. I'm back to work tomorrow for 7 days so I'll be sure to update you when I'm done.

7 Long Days

Well I made it thought another long Set of 7 days at work. Now to enjoy my 7 days off. I shall start with some relaxation of course. I have a eye exam at 12:30 today which doesn't leave me much time to knit while i get ready to go out. But I think i may make a lovely Lasagna for supper for my hubby tonight. A little prep and it cooks it's self :D I hope to get a huge chunk done on my scarf i'm working on as well as get the next section done on my shawlette. I will post some pictures when i get both of these things done.
As for the rest of the day, a hot bubble bath is high on the list as well as painting my nails with this ultra cool polish called OPI Crackle ( pics to follow ). So that's it for now.

Helix

So here is my first official Blog about something I'm actually making. I've have a Helix scarf of the needles for My Husbands, friends, wife for Christmas. It doesn't look like much yet but it will soon. And of course I'm making it in Crazy Zauberball in the Pink Colorway.


I know the quality isn't that good because the photo is taken with my IPhone but you get the general Idea.
So this along with Michelle Hunter's KAL that's going on right now I have a shawlette on the needles as well
http://knitpurlhunter.com/kal/ . I can't wait to start the second part. But I will tease you with the first part of it.

 

 I think it's looking pretty cool myself!  I'll be sure to post more pictures as I go. For now I leave you with these Pictures and I must leave now and make a cup of tea for my sweet. He'll be home shortly.
