just a face

I was looking through sweater patterns, when this woman's face caught my eye, so I decided to sketch her.

such a cutie!

Buckles visited the groomers yesterday, so he no longer looks like a rag-a-muffin.

off the needles

I finished the Hanna hat Friday night. The 3 pieces have been knitted for over a month, I just wasn't motivated to whip stitch them together, so Friday, I decided it was time to finally finish it. Kris loves it! I've been wanting to cast on for a sweater, but I told myself that I had to finish the mara shawl...finished it Saturday night. I started a neck down sweater last night...I'll post WIP pics in a few days.

picking

Yesterday, we went to Froberg's Farm in Alvin and picked strawberries. We made jam today...froze some and will make cobbler with the rest. It was a gorgeous day for picking strawberries.

angora sweater

DH and I went to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Tuesday night...when I saw this goat, all I could think about was a soft angora sweater. More pics on my flickr.

75 miles...

Britt was suppose to ride 55 miles in a bike warm-up yesterday for the MS150, but instead, she rode 75 miles...she was having an "Aggie moment" and didn't see the sign, that said to turn here for 55 miles. She did great! Look on my Flickr to see more pics.

I'm still working on my mara shawl. I had planned on finishing it by today, but then I got distracted by another project. I decided to start knitting squares for a Barn-Raising Quilt, out of leftover sock yarn. I found the pattern in this book.

I started a flickr photostream a couple of weeks ago and have been trying to post pictures there once a day. The flickr badge is off to the right on my blog...just click "what is this?" and then aggiemomtoo
