Raindrop shawl and recycled bag







Posting a few of my finished objects. I made this raindrop shawl from the Woolgirl pattern that she sent for June. I was pleasantly surprised how it turned out. I felt like I was making a ton of mistakes, but couldn't tell how bad they were as I was knitting--- but in the end, I think it looks pretty good!!



I also made this Dunkin Donut coffee bag with tons of coffee bags that a friend gave me!!

Two pairs of socks


Just finished up two pairs of socks. The navy socks were from the woolgirl sock club made in a very soft merino wool. The purply socks are a cotton blend- made with a feather and fan pattern.

Another market bag


Yes, I made another one. I kind of like this pattern. I make them to give away. It's made of hemp. I am sending this one with my husband when he goes to Ecuador to give to someone who really helps their group. Kind of fun...
I am going to be teaching how to make this market bag in June.

or something like that! I did a KAL with a friend for this shawl. I had fun making it with all of the color changes and different stitch patterns.

TIme flies...


Where has all the time gone???? I guess that is what happens when you have three children doing three different sports and dance recitals and more. Anyway, just posting a cute picture of one of the girls playing lacrosse, which is the latest sport they are learning!

C&O Canal



The family and I biked and camped on the C&O canal for Spring Break. It was an amazing trip despite below freezing temps. We biked 10 miles a day for several days and the little girls made it!!! I was impressed!!! It was so beautiful there!!! I definitely like the bike/camping better than backpacking!!!
