Yes as usual I am behind. I've been busy at home, busy at work and busy at rest. Tonight I'm taking the time to catch up on the last few months all in one fell swoop.
So for Christmas- Here are my favorite pics. Mom was here and we had a wonderful time. I cried when she left and am so happy that she came. I love her dearly and don't tell you nearly often enough.
These are the kids and Mom together.
Plus my two favorite from present opening.
And one just for the sake of it! (Read: What can I get into now?)
Since then. We boy wonder has gotten a fairly clean bill of health. The cyst in his leg has not filled entirely but the fracture is entirely healed. So normal life for now with the exception of football and wrestling. We'll see how we've progressed at our next appt in April.
Boy Wonder also made his way out of braces last week as well. One down one to go!
So in the Sewing Room we picked up this neat little gadget after Christmas. Now I can get all fancy with my finishing of objects. (I've made one pair of pajama pants since then and you can see the pile that awaits.
One of the neatest things I received for Christmas though were knitting patterns from the 1940's that belonged to my Grandmother. There are quite a few things that I want to make from them. I am currently working on a pair of fingerless gloves adapted from this pattern. It is for a KAL on Ravelry.
And speaking of KAL's on Ravelry- If you can get in- there is a Bones group from the show Bones on Fox.
If
you're familiar with the show one of the characters wears crazy socks
all of the time on the show. Come to find out he is a fan of the socks
in real life too. There are a bunch in the group that are going to be
knitting him socks and sending to his agent. Hopefully he'll wear them
on the show in future seasons. (we can all dream now can't we? )
I'll be knitting him the BMP socks from SOCKPR0N They are on KNITTY in case anyone else wants to make them.
I have cast on for quite a few things since the beginning of the year. Nothing is screaming at me to knit it but I am plugging away at them all. I'll post the pics. Let me know if you want more details
I also finished this little lovely and finally took a picture tonight. I actually finished it at Christmas and added the pocket later. It's already a well worn and well loved piece of work.
So that's it in a nutshell. I'm sure there's more and I'm sure I'll remember it at 2 in the morning and jump right up to let you know what it was.... Yeah right..... and after about 50 edits I still can't get the damn pictures to line up correctly. Argghh
