Just a quick Post

Hi, just a very quick post to let ya’ll know I am alive. I seem to have picked up a bit of a flu bug and am not feeling the best. My sister and niece have been returned to Indiana. It was a wonderful time visiting with them for a whole week. Most of the photos are on her camera so once she uploads them I will have photos for ya’ll. I have managed quite a bit of knitting this last week considering. I will have update photos on those once I feel up to it. Until then here is an updated photo of Bee Fields - I have the setup section and 42 rows of the Beehive Chart done in this photo. I tried grafting the start of the shawl and had to tear it out. Does anyone know of a site with a free video of grafting stitches - I remember coming across one a while ago, but can’t remember where.

Another WIP

Hi everyone. I have finally received my Bee Fields Kit and wow. I love the color even more in real life and the feel is just wonderful. I have already cast on and have finished the set up section and am moving on. I am loving the pattern so much. I will try to get a progress photo and post it later, but until then here is a photo of the wonderful yarn.

Quick Post

Just a very quick post to let ya’ll know I am alive.  I have been very busy between the puppy, work and Ravelry.  I finally got my invite and it has been sucking the life out of posting which wasn’t going so well to start with, but I am hoping to change that.  In fact I have to change to at least 4 posts in a month due to having decided to join Secret Pal 11 after all the fun I had with the last one.  I have learned some lessons about how to shop for and maintain contact with my secret pal as well as the person spoiling me.  Hopefully I can apply them.  Well, have to get to bed as I work in the morning.  I will most likely have to work this  Sunday (I normally work Monday through Friday) so I might not be able to post this weekend, but will try to get a post next week since my sister and my niece will be here from the 11th to the 18th - which means slim blogging as well.
