My Scowl

I finished my scowl I made with my Percy Jackson Kal kit.

I put a twist in it, sort of like a mobis.

I just love the colors! Next time I make one I am going to crochet it loosely. I crocheted this to tight.
I love it!

Star Wars Weekend

It's Star Wars weekends at The Hollywood Studios! Lots of Star Wars characters.

Ewoks!! He was so cute!

I made this vest! A friend of mine makes the props for this event and asked me to make this vest. It was easy to make. I also made The Greedo costume, but I didn't see him out there .

It's Star Wars weekend! Lots of Star Wars characters! It was so much fun.

My Yarn Came!

My yarn is here for the Percy Jackson Kal! I am so excited. The colors are beautiful. The pattern we are doing is really cool as well! I'm only showing part of it in case the other knitters haven't received there package yet. I dont want to spoil it. I am so excited!

Tikvah Shawl Beginning

Well not sure which yarn I want to use to knit up this next shawl. This is the Tikvah Shawl. It is so beautiful. I was thinking I would use one of the Storied yarns for this project, but I don't know which yarn I would use on that one either. Therefore, I decided to knit this shawl twice. Also this shawl will be knit up at my leisure. I don't want to knit it under pressure like the last one I did. I am under no time limits on this one. My Storied yarns will be here soon. I can't wait to knit those either!

Tallulah Gorge State Park And Taccoa Falls

 We took a quick trip to North of Atlanta.

 

This is Toccoa Falls There is so much beauty in this world that can only be seen if you get off the couch and explore. The feeling of awe can be described here. The sound of the powerful water splashing in the river was amazing.

Here is Aidan's action shot. He is flying down the falls.

We drove on and went by the Gorge. Whoa, don't step to far off the road. It is a long, long way down.

Karl Wallenda crossed over this Gorge on a tight rope. I don't think I could ever do that. It is a long way down. If you are ever North of Atlanta it is a beautiful drive on HWY 441.  Give it a try.

Jill's Shawl

My friend Jill's shawl is finished. I finished it on my quick trip to Atlanta. I had 15 hours to work on it. This was an easy garter stitch triangle shawl. This was the yarn I got from Storied Yarn  I love the colors. I hope this shawl brings her comfort. I love you Jill.

I must make another one I want one too! I enjoyed knitting this shawl. I love you Mom, Happy Mother's Day!

My Mother's Shawl Is Home!

The Shawl finally has a home!We had dinner at Chillies and gave it to her. All I had was my camera phone to take a picture, so I'll have to get a better pic from my mom. She has a good camera.

She loved it. So did the waitress. It made me cry. I can't believe how long it takes to make these types of shawls! I can't wait to make one for me.

The Shawl is drying!

Almost finished! It is waiting to dry! Ahh sweet bliss.
If you look at the falling leaves pattern on Ravelry, you can see that this shawl looks a little bit different.I thought I would add 10  knit st at beg and end. Something happend. Well either I added a stitch or something, but these leaves really look like they are falling. I think it is a neat looking mistake. I love it! I can't wait to give it to my Mom!

It Chose Me

The wand actually chose me!!! It was the first one I picked up to take a look at them, then I went over to ask which wand is mine she told Barry which one it was and it was the first wand I picked up. Amazing!!

Maybe I could get two wands and knit with them!

Soon this area will be open! Can you guess where this is? They had Butter Beer, and Hog's Head brew which was like a Scottish Ale. I can't wait to take more pictures to show you!

100th Post and Contest!!!! Projects Complete!!

 

Yeah they are done! I want to apologize to the contest winners for taking so long. I realized I wasn't going to finish the gift I am making for my Mom for Mother's Day, so I thought I would finish these magic wallets. Yeah, at least I feel better that I finished one project. Now I need to finish 3 more projects. I have already talked to the women I am  making the projects for and it is nice to know I am in no hurry to complete them. There needs to be 3 more hours a day at the end of the day! Wouldn't that be nice:)
