April Snow!


The calendar says it is supposed to be April 18, 2011 but mother nature had other plans for this morning's light April snow showers. Also I love this picture at the top of my yard this morning where snow meets spring, so much for living in the midwest.

My Lab dog Jak and my Parrot Katie meet face to face!

Knitting/Sheep Mug



After a my church's Rambler's walk in march, we stopped be a church member's house for hot chocolate, and I fell in love with this sheep mug called: Winter Woollies, wish I could have taken the mug home. I would be using it when I knit.

I Finished my knitting group's Rockin Sock'em Battle today. Here are the completed socks and the Eleanor sock pattern.

They sure are some pretty socks!

Because of the patterning detail on these socks, it was sure a challenge to knit. Also here is a the ravelry link to the sock pattern. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/eleanor
