A Good Feeling!!!!


This post has nothing to do with knitting but I wanted to share.  There is a center in Hackensack called "Hope Center".  At this center there are young adults who don't have parents and the organization that I joined provides them with a cake for their birthday.  This is a pic of the cake that I make for Jason's 10th birthday and the theme he picked was Power Rangers.  I have never met Jason and my wish for him is that he loves his birthday cake.

My Babe's Cardigan

I could not resist but to post a pic of the cardigan that I have started to knit for my honey, David.
It is a free pattern, Adult Raglan Sleeve Pullover, Lion Brand Wool Ease Chunky
Pattern#80682AD.  The pattern is a challenge for me but as my teacher would say to me, "you can do anything you put your mind to", so I am going to try.
I will keep you posted and update with more pics as I go along.


Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Fall Pom Pom Parade



This a pom pom scarf that Steph is modeling for me. When I look at the colors in the scarf it reminds me   of apple pie, pumpkin pie, apple cider all the great things that Fall brings!!!!!




The yarn is very soft and I ordered it from Herrschners.  A good find!

Black Star Night Scarf



I could not resist this yarn. It is Mondial Frivola from Italy. The little balls look like little pom poms or you can use your imagination. LOL I was stalking this yarn for a few weeks at Creative Knitworks and broke down and purchased it. This is my daughter Stephanie modeling the scarf for me at our Sunday Cheesecake Factory Brunch. Food was good and Steph is kinda cute.

Cabin Fever Shawl




This is going to become a really nice wide and long shawl. I purchased this gorgeous yarn at Connie Sloan's in Upper Montclair. The owner was so sweet and helpful. The yarn is Cherry Tree Hill, Jumbo Loop Mohair Boucle in Cabin Fever and African Grey. The close up pic shows how beautiful the jumbo loops are. Will keep you updated on this awesome shawl.
