mouse in works

I am working on mouse puppet. Last night at my knitting group we did more talking than knitting. Today I am checking out another knitting group that is meeting at Roasters , the local coffee shop in Narrowsburg , NY. It is a short walk over the bridge into NY to get to shop. Hope it works out .

Way too much of my time has been spent on Facebook lately! It is very addictive. You find one friend , then another from that friend etc... I have found many of my former students whom are all grown up!!

My knitting has been mainly new grand baby stuff.. Shower is this weekend .This is going ot be so much fun!
After the puppets are done I need to go in another direction. The lace shawl for Aunt Dottie needs finished and I love the new pattern in Interweave Knits by Susan Pierce Lawrence Fountain Pen Shawl.
I love her Forest Canopy pattern.

lion puppet done (: cute

I am on a roll with these little guys. Next it is the mouse and elephant. There is extra patterns on line from Creative knitting for piglet too. I have till Sunday for the baby shower so hopefully can get at least 2 more done.
This one does not look so lion like but still is adorable. A cute tail with the Lion brand eye lash yarn is not in the pictures. I used more of the Lion Brand yarn for this. With one skein you could make 2 puppets so I have supplies to make another little zoo for next grandchild..
