Shesh, gimme a break

Man you guys are crabby! I been BUSY! and it seems like everything around is broken: the laptop, then the external hard drive, but I thought it was the computer, not the HD, so the computer had a whole overhaul in order to "fix" the issue with not being able to access the HD. (Note to self: maybe trouble shoot a little more extensively next time!). Now it appears my monitor is well and truly broken. For all I know the computer is toast too, but since I can't see anything I don't know that.

But I do have new pictures, thanks to everyone else for getting them and sending them to me via email, which isn't broken... yet...
Here is a picture of the oven mitt, potholder / trivet, and coasters I made for Ruth & John:














And here are Sonia & Kurt's slippers. Kurt was particularly enthusiastic.





And here are Mom & Dad's socks.
















I have no idea what yarn those are. I think I have the label somewhere, I'll post it when I find it.


Suzanne promised me she would get a picture of the hat I made her. I'd been sitting on the yarn for a while because I loved the colors so much, but never could think of anything great to make from it for me... because I look like crap in a close fitting "beanie style" hat and that's how much I had.

Girlz Who Knit (& Those Who Don't Post)

Jiminy. I was trying to give PunkinPi the first shot to post in 2008, but she's just too lazy^H^H^H slow. Oh, wait - here she is doing something... is that a knitting project? Couldn't be. Cuz she would have posted by now. Note the gorgeous felted bag - a project that could be put on ravelry (although I know that Martie did it, but PP could use another project or two on the site).



Since I'm nearing the completion of a scarf and I don't really have anything to show and tell, I'll share our fun knitting (and food and skiing) weekend up in Silverthorne. Here we are - and it looks like we're trying to decide who will post next. Note how no one will look anyone else in the eye.

Some of us snowshoed and xc skied - and had pedicures - and we ate lots of gooey goodness. I love this group, especially the cooks. We never go hungry or thirsty.



Here is a rainbow of pre-felted slipper clogs. Although none are Martie's. Tsk.

Felted slippers

Looky what I finished! I have more yarn so there is another one on the needles, so much for working on the henley...
















Here's what they looked like before the felting:















And during the felting:

Slippin Out


More felted slippers... this time for Cathy's friend Renie (who will hopefully cut my hair into more layers whenever the mood strikes me - or her). Yes, they are quite similar to those that I made for Jennifer. Gurls like pink ya know.

I nearly had them finished 2 months ago and then not-so-surpringly ran out of the dark pink. The local yarn shop still had ONE (1) skein left. Of the same dyelot. Man am I lucky, I know. No lectures, please.
