off the needles

I started this pair of socks last January and finally finished them New Year's Eve...talk about procrastinating. We had such a HOT summer, that I rarely touch any of my knitting projects. I have 2 pairs of socks on the needles right now and a pair of fingerless mittens.

magic carpet

Chance thinks this quilt "magic carpet" is his...I made it in 1995. I haven't quilted for awhile...knitting is more portable.

thorpe hat

I finished this hat last week. Kris modeled it for me yesterday before she headed back to CS.

a little late

Yes, I know I'm a little late with these santa hat pictures, but at least I'm posting them. Chance refused to wear the santa hat and scarf this year. Buckles and Abby tolerated it for a few minutes.

boogie shoes....

I love to wear these shoes around our yard area. They were suppose to be a Christmas gift, but the day it snowed, I pulled them out of the box and the rest is history. I ordered them from Cabella's.

cheers

Happy New Year 2010!
