New Tire Cover ?


We needed a new tire cover, the old one was torn and falling apart, so I knitted one. No, not really. I don't want this to end up on the You Knit What website. It's another kitty bed, pre-felted. This is only to illustrate the size before washing. The last one took three loads to get to the right size and then my machine clogged up. I'll be more careful this time. This is exactly like the last kitty bed I made. I told you I had enough yarn for two. The first one is being used for a Sock Monkey collection. (I requested a picture). I hope this one will be used for cats.

I'm Baaack!


Been gone a while, but maybe you didn't notice. Went on a long road trip to the Canadian Rockies, then came home, caught a cold, went to Morro Bay for the weekend. I did take my knitting on the Canadian trip, but have nothing to show for it. So why the picture of the flower? It seems that everytime I go out of town this plant has just finished flowering. The bloom lasts only a few hours, so I was lucky to get a picture.

Blue Denim Baby Sweater


Just Finished. Ready for giving. With a hat. Isn't there someone that needs a baby boy sweater? It's the same pattern that I used for the pink baby sweater I knit a while back. Knit from the top down without any seams. I had a hard time finding buttons, you would have thought I had something in my button box, but nothing was suitable. I must confess, I bought the yarn for this project. At least, I had none left over.
