Knitting Away
I am so excited! I have all the pieces knitted for the Seville Jacket by Oak Couture. Should be hanging in my friends shop this week. Now to finish some more of my projects that I have going. I have plenty of socks to finish, a pair of felted clogs, and a wallaby sweater. I have more projects to start but I want to first get caught up.

Off to look for more yarn.

Hogwarts Swap Pal
I have received the name of my swap pal. She's a Gryffindor, Doris Dumbledore! I am really excited! I even have the pattern all picked out for her socks. Of course I can't mention it here because then she would know and that would ruin the surprise. Sorry Doris...

Phew!
Well, finally ready to post. We just got my brotherNlaw home from the hospital. It has been a busy beginning of July. I have been running my sister all over the place. She has MS and her husband was diagnosed with a bone cancer that has attacked his rib cage and spine. Because of the Chemo, his immune system is compromised and he got an infection and the start of pneumonia. He is doing much better and resting at home.

BACK TO THE KNITTING!
