Secret of the Stole 3


I signed up for this...Secret Of the Stole. It starts August 15th...Hopefully godess mystery will be done by then. I am starting clue 4 out of 5 - but long long clues now. This theme is pale colors so I ordered pale pink yarn and beads from Sarah's yarns and my favorite bead place on ebay.http://myworld.ebay.com/jacksmommy2003/

wedding chores.... knitting cruise

The wedding will be one month from now. I am pooped from cleaning all day. Seems all I am doing is cleaning and gardening and then doing it all over again. This has been my only exercise. My house will be in great shape for this wedding probably will never ever be so good again. Nothing like a wedding at your house to get you motivated and cleaning. Last time our windows were cleaned were two years ago for my son's wedding. Who knows if they will ever all get cleaned again?

Still working on Goddess Knit Anniversary shawl Clue 3. Clue 5 is the last clue and looks really scary as you are doing an edging with live stitches some how. Still not sure if I will stop after this clue is done and go back to Slow Bee 1 .

The Slow Bee must done by October so I can take it on my Knitting Cruise . My final payment for that was mailed today. The 5 day Norwegian Cruise to New England and Canada is sponsored by the Embraceable Ewe Yarn Shop located in Hamburg, Ny. Erin runs the summer knitting camp in Bradford , Pa. I skipped camp this summer because of the wedding, My sister still went and loved it . Next year I will be there!
























hamburg , Ny.

Lace knitting is addictive but these shawls take forever to finish and therefore not much else is accomplished for months . I signed up for Secret Stole group but will wait till one of these ufo 's are done.
