My Father Knits Wonderful Things

I got a lovely Thanksgiving box from my sp on Wednesday. But was busy with the holiday on Thursday, and shopping on Friday, so here is my Thank You, a tad late! :)

I was spoiled with some 220, and noro (sooooo pretty!), and soup mix, and a gorgeous hand stamped card! [So pal, were those stampin' up! products?!? (I used to be a demonstrator). ]

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!


Oh, and I made that desert yarn I got in the last sp9 package into a 'my so called scarf' for my sister's birthday, but forgot to get a good pic of the scarf! This was the hubbies best try on Thanksgiving, but it doesn't do her, or the scarf, any justice!!!

So here is my washcloth for the sp9 contest number two!
It is a cabled owl washcloth in peaches and cream cotton. I got the pattern off of about.com. It is part of a small stack of owl dishcloths that I am sending my grandma for Christmas (gram, if your reading this, forget what you just read!!!). Its a really crummy pic, but the best I could get before the camera batteries died on me!

-I got the knitting machine and can't wait to figure it out
-We are fasting from TV, as a family
-So I have to go get off the comp and entertain some kiddies!

~Have a great day!

I might be getting a knitting machine!!! A friend of mine, who I met while working as a clerk for last June's election, has offered me her knitting machine for free! She hasn't touched it in some time, and feels guilty about it's lack of use.
This has me pretty excited! Especially because Christmas is just around the corner and a two month+ bout of morning sickness has left me with a lot of knitting to do and not much time to do it! My friend said that when she was using the machine regularly she could do a sweater in one day!!! One day people!!! This just might save me!
:)
I am going to call her when the hubbie gets home and see when I can pick it up! Yippie!
