Knitting Content

I only have one picture from the dance. The dance was a family deal, it was from 6:30 to 8:00 and the kids had a great time. I don't know if you tell in the terrible picture below, but all three kids are in it, have a close look and you will see them all. It was fun and PJ even won a prize for "shakin' everything her mama gave her" Go girl. She won it in a show your moves hip hop thing. Made me laugh.

If you really squint you can make out Debbles, Rory, Layne and Wren in the background.



I have hit a good knitting stride lately. I just finished a pair of socks, I will photograph them at work Wed and show them to you then.

The kids have been asking me to make them fingerless gloves like mine. I decided to finally give it a go. I made mine up without a pattern and did not write anything down as I went so starting a new pair seemed a bit daunting.

I faked it and ended up with a pair for PJ I am pretty happy with, I wrote down the pattern so I can do up a pair for Q and Seabass. It only took me two evenings to get them done, they were very quick and fun to do. I like the immediate gratification.

In the first photo below the colours are no where near true but you get a size idea, that is mine and PJ's.



Here is PJ wearing her's for a modeling session. The colour in the photo below is the most accurate.



PJ is the best knitting model I have ever had, she just kept posing and smiling. The pictures made me smile and I needed practice using the flash so I just kept clicking away. I posted a few of them to make you smile too.

In that upper picture she resembles my mother's mother slightly. I wonder if Mom has a picture of her? Maybe she'll grow up to be a model.

Looks like everyone is having a good time.

Wow...those kids were dancing so fast you couldn't slow them down long enough to focus a picture. LOL!

I was thinking P looks like her mom. I see K in the eyes, nose, chin, mouth, cheeks....hmmmm...sounds like the entire face.

Hey K! Your daughter looks just like you.
