long time no blog

Log Cabin Mason Dixon is almost done. I am adding one more strip and have many ends to weave in yet. I plan on giving this to my Dad who is still in a nursing home. He is always cold and always sleeping in bed..
Stinky is still going for the needles and in trouble.

These are my favorite things I have knitted this past few weeks. The hat is made for bits of stash yarn using a the pattern I got from Cloverleaf Farms Hat kit purchased at Maryland Sheep and Wool. Along side it is a Fetching mitt I am making to match .


This is the finished unblocked so so Karabella Sweater..



more pairs Wendy Knits fingerless mitts




This is the original hat kit from Cloverleaf ( the blue one)
I like it so much I am keeping it!





This is the Utopia Hat free from Smariek that my blog pal (Cactusneedles) shared with me along with her Fetchings. It is a lot of work for me as my experience with cables is limited. The cable design is beautiful and it is worth the concentration it takes.My concern is that it might be too small. But- if it is will give it away .

Been very blog less lately and not sure why. Mostly because my camera needs to be recharged to get some photos. This weather can be a reason too as we have been bombarded with snow and ice storms and it is all very depressing to me. My energy level is null...
















Knitting continues though.. I knit everyday but wish my progress was quicker. I see on many blogs where these sweater and socks seem to be done in a few days.
