As of Friday morning the Broadripple socks that I did on the Cherry Tree Hill yarn that Rhonda gave me are finally done! I got my lovely Mom to model them for me since I have a hard time taking a nice shot of my socks on my feet. I also finally got a chance to photograph the socks that I made Paisley with the same yarn. I just cast on 44 sts and did a K2P2 to rib for the kiddie socks. The only way I could get that my dear daughter to model the socks for me on Friday was to keep her tights on and also model with her Grandma.

Awwe..look at my hardworking ladies below:





I had a busy weekend beginning on Friday. My parents came from Owen Sound for an overnight visit. My brother had a hockey playoff game against Niagara-on-the-Lake in Virgil, ON and they needed a place to stay and since we live fairly close to Niagara we welcomed them. :-) We all went on Friday night to see the game and it was a victorious win for the Owen Sound Jr. Attack(midget team). Unfortunately because my brother's a goaltender, it wasn't his night in net so we didn't get to see him play, but it was an excellent game and now they get to enter the semi-finals and I got to try out my new socks at the arena too and they kept my toes toasty. They all left on Saturday morning before I had to go to work and boy did I ever have a busy day in the photo lab, it just seemed like everyone in Hamilton wanted to get their pictures done but it was well rewarded afterwards because Ron and I had an evening to ourselves! My MIL Rhonda took Paisley for one of their "Saturday Night Specials". On the spur of the moments we decided to use our theatre coupons that we got in boxes of Lipton tea and went to the movies and it cost us a whole $1.90, can't beat that! We went to see Night At the Museum. It was a fun movie, a little unrealistic, but very cute, I recommend it for a great family movie!! On the way home, we stopped for some Swiss Chalet take-out and headed for home for a night of knitting/online game playing. Yep, *LOL* that's what we do, our computer's in the living room so he plays his World of Warcraft and I do my knitting and we talk. I started playing around with the sweater I want to knit, but haven't quite started it yet. I will post progress pictures one I actually get started!

Oh, I forgot to mention that on Friday night while my mom and I watched a movie I managed to knit a barbie dress for Paisley. It wasn't from a pattern or anything, I just started knitting and knitting and knitting and came up with this:
I had fun knitting it because I had no idea how it was going to turn out or if it was even going to work out, but it fit. I even glitter glued a little heart on the dress as an added touch.

Well..that's about it for my weekend. It's always over so fast! I hope everyone else had a good one. Tomorrow Paisley has her very first visit to the dentist. I am so excited and very curious to see how it goes. I (unlike many) love going to the dentist, I love have my teeth poked and prodded at and love that feeling of have my teeth cleaned. It always feels so awesome afterwards! I am hoping she takes after me and enjoys dentist visits.

A New Pattern = A Fresh Start ?

As you may or may not have noticed, my progress bar for my 4-ways cardi hasn't moved for months. This is because I am no longer feeling the love for this project. I really do want to complete an entire sweater for myself but I got really bored with the pattern. :-(

I am excited to say that I have been inspired once again to knit a sweater for me!! I fell in love with a pattern the other day as I was flipping through a magazine. It happens to be a free pattern courtesy of Berroco called Tierra. They are using berroco softwist, which is coincidentally the same yarn used for the 4-ways cardi. I'm not sure if any of you will remember but, for my birthday last year, Rhonda bought me all the yarn to do the cardi, but in Paton's Decor. I was stoked to find out that I could probably use the yarn for this pattern as well so I started to do a gauge, I completed it on the 5mm needles used in the pattern and it didn't work out, so I casted on for a 2nd gauge on 4.5mm, completed it and it still didn't measure up. Hummm, the whole time I was thinking, could this be why my 4-ways cardi was way off from the measurements that the back and the arms were supposed to be? It was also done on 5mm needles. I quickly emailed Rhonda for some advice and she replied back to me telling me not to drop down any lower then a 4mm needle. So again, I got out the 4mm and started another gauge (20 sts=4mm 28 Rows=4mm), finished it in a flash and lucky for me this time it was bang on. Friggin' eh!!! :-) So, I will be attempting this project really, really soon....I'm mega excited about it. I even did a swatch of the 18 st cable pattern!

On to some more exciting knitting news for me!! My hubby took me over to Ikea on Monday and bought me some storage for my out of control knitting. I had knitting stored in 4 different boxes and 5 different bags around the house and he was tired of always running into it. Today I finally got to organizing it all. I HATE organizing, but it was actually kind of fun seeing everything I had. We only had one incident, my little helper Paisley spilled a margarine container of beads all over the entire spare room. Arrrggg, *LOL* it's hard to find good help these days.

I bet your wondering what else I've been up to......

Well, I completed another scarf for my friend at work (pictured gold). I can't wait to see Nabila again, so she can try it on, I picked gold (odd colour) because I thought it would go good with her complexion, it will be interesting to see if I was right. The other scarf is one of the first of the 7 scarves I made and it was for myself (blue).

(Don't mind my self-modelling, I was bumming around the house)

Wow, all that I have on the needles right now is the last Cherry Tree Hill sock, I'm onto the heel flap right now and should be done it soon. I think I'm done with scarves for this year, but more sock are in order! I've got to cast on for Becky's socks soon too, she's still waiting...what a patient woman.

Bad blogger!

It's been quite a while since my last post, eeek! So much has been going on for me lately, but I guess that shouldn't excuse for my lack of blogging these days. I'll blame it partly on my dh and his silly online game World of Warcraft (he's a computer hog).

A few weeks ago, my hubby got permanently laid off from his job of nearly 5 years. On a whim after our weekend to Owen Sound (see last post), we decided that we would like a change and decided that we were going to move to Owen Sound (that is where my family is from and where Ron's always wanted to live). It is a nice city and we made several trips back there since that weekend to try and find a place to live. The first time we went back we got caught in that huge snow storm and got snow-stayed there for 3 days, it even took us 7 hours to get there when it only should have been a 2.5 hour drive. We couldn't really get out to do much house hunting either but we did call some places. We finally got a few calls a week later and we drove back up on Monday morning again only to get stood up by this guy that was going to show us a few places he had. Bahh, so on the way home we talked about it and we're going to take this as a sign not to move there right now, we're going to stay in Hamilton...at least for now. :-)
So I guess we better register Miss Paisley for Jr. Kindergarten for September, she's very excited and has a friend 2 doors down that will be going with her.

With all of this going on, I still managed to knit 6 scarfs with some dollar store eyelash yarn and gave them away to people, I even made one for myself. :-) Made Paisley a pair of Cherry Tree socks to match mine and I'm working the way down the cuff of my second sock (which, lol should be done by now but I got sidetracked by scarves). I will get some pictures of all of this asap!!!! :-) I even have one more scarf left to make but I'm going to make sure my sock is done first because they'd be sure nice to wear in these frigid temperatures we are having in Southern Ontario.

Hope every one's staying warm and cozy out there if you're having this cold weather that we're having here, if so..perhaps we will see alot of blogging and new knits! :-)

cher·ry

When I looked up the word Cherry in the dictionary today, I particularly liked definition:

"7. Slang.
a.
something new or unused."


I've got something new!! Last week Rhonda gave me some of her Cherry Tree Hill sock yarn that she wound wound using her new yarn meter she bought herself from all her hard work. I've never used Cherry Tree yarn before, but it felt so nice and sat in my bag all week taunting while I worked on the hat. Well, it certainly got the best of me be because as soon as I was done the hat (haven't even tied my ends in yet) I just had to cast on for some silly socks. I'm using the Broadripple pattern again, but I've modified the pattern slightly so that I can use sock yarn instead of a double knitting yarn. The actual pattern calls for 56 sts and I'm using 64, so really there's only 2 extra stitches on each needle which I don't think makes too much of a difference at all. I'm making wicked progress so far because as I've mentioned before, the Broadripple pattern is addictive (and easy). The yarn did not disappoint either, it knits up wonderfully and feels nice on my feet when I tried them on. The colours are all over the place, but it doesn't seem too overwhelming for the pattern. I just can't wait until they are done and I can wear them. :-)





I'm almost done sock number one, so I guess I've popped the proverbial cherry.

When I was trying to take a picture for my blog, Paisley had to get in on the action. She named this pose her "Grandma Face" (I'm not kidding). As much as she has been rotten lately, this kid makes me laugh. Where do they come up with this stuff???

We're off to Owen Sound this weekend for a little winter fun. We're going to take Paisley & Lucas skating and quite possibly some tobogganing. It will be Paisley's first time doing both. I will definitely be posting some pictures when I'm back. It's going to be fun times, ohhh I can't wait!! :-)

One more thing before I go...
I don't think I mentioned that Paisley saw The Needle Emporium on CH Morning Live yesterday. She had to inform Ron and I that she goes to "Julie's house" with Gramma all the time and she also has too dogs. What a girl, I just thought it was so cute. :-)

Have a good weekend everyone!

That Darn Hat!

The Army Girl Ear flap Hat is nearing completion and it's a very, very good thing because I really did not like this pattern. It started out a little rough, got a little better and then once I got to the crown, I was lost again. It's kind of like knitting blind and I'm sure you all know what I mean by that. I felt as though the pattern was a little vague in explaining things and the way it was written was a little confusing. I'm not even so sure I like how it turned out! There is a positive to this whole thing... I learned two new techniques!!! On Saturday night Rhonda taught me the cable cast-on method and I also learned how to do an attached i-cord.

That's it for me today, just a short little post. Going out to one of our Ontario Early Years Centres very shortly (Paisley calls it playgroup). For any parents (in Ontario) who have never heard of OEYC, you should check out their link to find a centre in your area, it's a great place to take your kiddies. They have all kinds of fun and activities for them there as wells as it allows them to interact with children in their own age group. Did I mention that it's free too? I believe it's for children 0-6 years old.

Back in Blogland

I have been without internet access since the wee hours of Friday morning and going nuts. It's just amazing how much we use the net getting through our day to day. When you don't have it...you realize just how much it is used. Really...lol how could we ever have lived without this invention years and years ago (kind of sad??). On the upside to lack of interent, we apparently have the fastest highspeed in the city. We had sympatico before but I think it was dsl light so the cable is alot faster (so far, we'll see how it goes). Unfortunately I don't have any exciting knitting content to talk about (and you'd think with less computer time I would have something crazy knit up). The Army Girl hat is still on the needles and needs to be frogged and restarted. What really sucks is that it's like -50 degrees out in Manitoba right now so it would be nice to have it all finished so I can send the hat, mitts (which could probably really be used right now) and the rest of the Christmas parcel out to my best friend Kerri. Soon..soon...soon...

That's it for me tonight! Knit on Knitters Knit on!!

A Perfect Gauge (hopefully)

Now that the camo mittens are all done, I'm onto the hat I've been wanting to make for Kerri. It's called Army Girl Earflap hat from Interweave Knits (winter 2005) about 1/2 way down the page on the link. When I was out visiting her in October, she saw a knitted hat that her hubby's bestfriend had and she asked me if I could make her a similar one and I've been on the hunt for a pattern ever since. Now I've finally found one that's perfect (with a little help from my MIL Rhonda) and I'm itching to get started on it. I'm taking a short hiatus from socks because I need to mail this gift out (along with Christmas stuff for Kerri & family) before it's too warm for knit wear. So, Bex...if your reading, I have to pause on your socks temporarily. Becky will eventually be receiving a pair of Emobssed Leaves socks (also a pattern from Interweave Knits), more on the socks a little later and back to the hat!! Keeping with the "Knit from your Stash" project, I took two odd balls of yarn from my stash, one was worsted and one was fingering weight, I thought I'd try and get a tweedy look and put them together, did up a gauge (16sts and 25 rows = 4")and sucess, it seemed to work. I don't always do a swatch before I start a project, but I thought this time I didn't really want to be effing around and I really want to use up my stash yarn, because alot of it was stuff that I got or that was given to me when I first started knitting (almost 3 years ago) and I would love to buy something nice for myself when it's all gone. :)

Today I started the hat. I've done about 10 rows on the pattern and something doesn't seem right. I'm going to rip it all out and try it again tomorrow. I just can't seem to maintain the ribbed garter stitch pattern (R.S. k1, p1, WS purl). I think the m1's are throwing me off, not too sure. I may have to consult a professional knitter about this.....

Camouflage Mittens

Yes...you read it correctly, I am making camo mitts. The yarn is from my stash, woot woot! It doesn't even have the ball band on it anymore, but my guess is bernat because I think they have the camouflage shades. Now, you're probably wondering why I'm making camo mitts? The mitts are for my best friend Kerri's hubby, he's in the military and I thought Kerri and him would get a kick out of them. They are cute though, even if he's not a mitt guy. I thought he could wear them outside with their boys or something since it is freezing in Manitoba. I am contemplating making an ear flap had to match, I just haven't decided yet because I still have to knit Kerri the hat she wanted. :-) I'm busting in on the stash with this project, how sweet is that? This is also my first time knitting mitts in the round and I'm loving it. It's also been over a year since I've made mitts and I have to live up to the title of my name. As far as patterns go, I'm not really using one. I just looked at a few patterns for men so I could get the correct number of stitches on the needles and steps for the gusset and top shaping. I'm using my new dpns I got for Christmas (3.5mm) as well. One mitt done and another on the needles, I'm almost done the ribbed cuff on the 2nd mitt. Mittens are such a quick knit, gotta love it! :-)

Well, I'm off to bake banana bread, Paisley wants to bake and I have 3 bananas that are really yellow and have brown spots on them (I will NOT eat banana's like that, they have to be slightly green for me to eat them).

Christmas Madness and a Quiet New Year!

Christmas flew by like a whirlwind! Christmas Eve was spent at work (what a crazy day but there was lots of good food from our potluck) followed by Christmas out at Ron's parents house in Smithville. We did everything but "Santa" stuff on the 24th and by 7am Christmas Day, Paisley was out in the livingroom slightly disappointed that she missed Santa but excited about more gifts. We let her tear through her stocking first so we could wake up a bit and let Gramma & Grampa get up too. This was a very exciting Christmas for us because it's the first year that Paisley really understands what's going on and she was very impressed with her stocking (Yes that is Opal sock yarn in the picture to your left, I got it from my wonderful MIL and I also got some new dpns from Paisley). My only real disappoinent was our lack of snow on Christmas this year. Although I'd rather drive on snowless roads, it just doesn't feel like Christmas without a little snow on the gound. Boxing Day was spent looking for a new keyboard because our wireless decided to die on us that moring and then we were heading out to Ancaster for more Christmas at Ron's Grandma's. We also had to pick up 2 gifts on our way, one for a man and one for a woman, so we could swap gifts. A quick stop at Shoppers and Canadian Tire did the trick and we were on our way for more Christmas madness. Afther that was all said and done, we had one more day to clean up our house and find homes for the new stuff before my parents came on the 27th. We did our Christmas with them shortly after they arrived and the next day we did our big dinner and just look at our poor tree after they arrived!! I think we are in need of a larger tree next year. :-)

Onto the Christmas socks:

The Broadripple Socks (yellow) that I made were gifted to my mom and the 2nd pair of Jaywalkers (pink) I made were for my brother's girlfriend Genna. My mom wore her's the whole time they were at my place, I had to wash them for her. There's nothing more gratifying then watching something you made getting a work out, I bet my mom's even wearing them right now. Ha ha!

What a crazy week eh??? On Saturday the 30th we got my parents to babysit Paisley so I could go to my friend Becky's birthday party. It was good times and nice to get out for an evening (something we don't do very often). It was at a steakhouse in Niagara Falls called Wildfire, the food was good and so was the Carlsberg, MMmm Beer! New Years Eve I had to work 8-4pm and my parents were heading back to Owen Sound so I was up at 6am. Ron and I had planed to stay up and bring in the new year, but by 10:30 I feel asleep on the couch.

Can you blame me???? ha ha. We certainly had fun though!

Happy New Years and Blogoversary!

Just wanted to post a quick Happy New Years to everyone, also a few days ago was my 1st Blogoversary. I see every one's slowly changing to the new blogger, all of your blogs are looking good!
It was a very busy Christmas for us (hence my lack of posts lately), I will fill you in on all of our fun soon, but I have to go now! The socks were love by their recipients too, I have pictures to show. :-)

It wouldn't let me post the picture in my post, so here she is!

Her new Christmas dress is from my good friend Becky and her mom Liz, so if either you are reading this, I hope you got your picture in the mail and thank you both again, she looked adorable!

Some Holiday Baking

Paisley loves baking, she would bake cookies everyday if she could. We decided to try our hand at Gingerbread men and do a little holiday baking. They turned out better then I expected though, yummy! I love Gingerbread. Paisley rolled the dough, used the cookie cutter and also decorated them with icing. Daddy whipped up his special creamy icing for us as well. We didn't really have too many problems except for daddy decorating the men in places that shouldn't be decorated...bad hubby!!! It made me laugh though, because that is so like him. Here's a picture of our mad artistic skills, I had to sensor out daddy's man though! :-)

At last her had work can be rewarded with a cookie and some relaxing!

Unfortunately, we had a little incident the next day. I went upstairs for a minute and while I was gone, I heard a loud crash. I came running down the stairs only to find that she dropped the whole plate of cookies on the floor icing side down and several of them had busted limbs, it was sad day for the men, but many were still enjoyed.

I almost have my second pair of Jaywalkers completed too, woot woot!!!
I also started working on the second broadripple sock, I need to get that finished as well. I'm trying, I'm trying but I'm running out of time, only 10 more days left.

As promised, I'm also putting up the picture of Paisley on Santa's lap(I know...holy pictures). This is a big deal because it's the first year she actually wanted to sit on his lap, last year she bawled when we put her on his lap.

A Big Little Girl

On Friday December 8th, my baby turned 3 years old. She had a blast at her little party and is now completely wound up (probably until Christmas) because on sunday we went to the kids Christmas party for Ron's work and she had more fun, more presents and she got to see Santa! All things considered though, she is being a pretty good girl...just a little more hyper then usual. For her birthday, Ron and I couldn't pass up a good deal on a powerwheels (well I think it's actually little tykes) Princess Jeep, we were at Walmart and they had them on sale for $99.99 (reg 299.99). I have yet to get a picture with her on it, but stay tuned I'm going to try and get one.

My knitting has been on hold since thursday night due to all the commotion that's been going on around here. Today is my SIL's birthday, Happy Birthday Valerie!! Tomorrow my hubby's birthday(Dec.13th), Happy Birthday Ron and to Ron's cousin Sean too! Happy Brthday everyone!!



Okay..well my big girl is helping herself to milk and it's going all over the counter, I think that's my signal to jet........

Oh needle where art thou?

One of my 2.5mm sock needles has vanished. I've looked everywhere, under the couches, in my knitting basket and around Paisley's barbie stuff she has out on the carpet. It is gone, ahhhh!!! I need to get my Christmas socks done. I'm done one of the Jaywalkers and working my way down the leg of the 2nd, however I do need that needle back, wherever went. I will keep looking and hope for the best. I have pictures, but I will post them later. I just needed to vent right now. :-) So thanks for reading!!

Drum Roll Please....

They're done...they're finally done!! I'm wearing them on my feet right now. Presenting the finished Jaywalkers, Daaduudadaaa!! Man these socks were a pain in my ass, they would have been done ages ago if it wasn't for that daughter of mine, she pulled the sock off the needles twice on me. I have 2 more pairs to make, but if someone knows a lovely, more mindless pattern that will knit up quick (sometime before xmas) feel free to let me know. :-)

I do have Happy Feet now though, the socks are damn comfy, they look cool and these babies are mine (not being gifted to anyone). I just wanna dance all over in 'em!

Onto Christmas things (which is quickly approaching), Paisley and I went for a walk in the fog tonight (which really should have been snow) to mail all of our Christmas cards. I'm not too sure if I'm sending them out too early, but oh well I guess I'll be the first card on everyone's mantel (or where ever they put them). We have yet to decorate the house though, we're waiting until after Paisley's birthday on December 8th. It's kind of hard to believe that my baby's going to be 3 years old, she growing up too fast. She is super excited about her birthday because her cousin Lucas is coming and she doesn't get too see him very often (he's 9 months younger), so it should be a good time. December is always a crazy a month for us since everyone's birthday is right before Christmas (Paisley, Ron, Ron's sister Valerie and Grampa). It be interesting!

That's if for me, I've got to give a bath to a messy child and to bake brownies (perhaps before the bath??).

Night Away From Socks!

I thought that last night I would take the evening off of sock knitting! While I was hunting for a pattern that went MIA (and still can't find either) I came across some dollarstore yarn that someone gave me and decided to make a scarf for Paisley. The is the Cotton Candy Keyhole Scarf. I thought I would try the keyhole scarf since she loves wearing them but can't seem to keep them on (don't mind my uncooperative model, te he). The ball band didn't have a gauge or needle size so I went with 8mm needles, the yarn is really chunky.


As for the socks, I am finished on of the Broadripples, and have cast-on for the second sock but haven't made too much progress. The Jaywalkers would be finished by now but they are pretty much the same as my last post because a day later, Paisley ripped needles out of it on me. She was playing quitely on the floor and I was on the couch knitting away. She asked me to get something for her so I set my knitting down on the end table beside me. I was gone seconds and she was already on the couch and had my knitting in her hands, as soon as she saw me and I said something to her she ripped 2 of my needles out right in front of me. I was sooo pissed I didn't know what to do. Actually, I'm still really mad but it's getting better! I guess I'm going to have to get box and lock up my knitting everytime I leave it unattended!

That was fun!

Thanks Samantha, that was fun!! :-)
( Edit: sorry had to smush it a bit, I wanted my sidebar back!!!!)

Socks & Meet Bruce!

Just thought I would post my nearly finished jaywalkers and I also have one of the broadripple sock almost done! This is all that has be on my needles lately and there will be more to come because I think socks are going to make great Christmas presents this year. :-)



Also, I would like for you to meet a new friend of ours, Bruce the Hamster. We got him about a week and a 1/2 ago for Paisley because she was missing her kitty Deuce who went to live at Gramma's house. We sure miss Deuce, but he is doing great at Rhonda's and seems to be much happier then he was here. The story that goes along with Bruce is that we were going to the pet store just to "look" and see how much it would cost to buy a hamster and as we were walking across the pretty much bare parking lot we see something go flying. Ron goes to pick it up and it appears to be something red...he found a $50 dollar bill. So, home we go with a hamster, a habitrail mansion and some other fun stuff for him and one happy kid. Paisley also chose his name on the way home, who would have though?? A hamster named Bruce.

(Cute too bad she closed her eyes though!) ------------------------->

A Big Post

Like a few other blogs that I have been reading, my Socktoberfest is extending into November! I'm currently working on my last Jaywalker, they're almost finished and I'm almost more than half done one of the Broadripple socks that I am making for a Christmas gift. After these socks are finished, I will be casting on for another pair of Jaywalkers and that will be another Christmas gift down. The only thing about my Jays that I was disappointed in was that the colours pooled half way through, hopefullyt he 2nd sock does the same!!

I know it's a little late for Halloween pictures, but I just had to post some of my little Princess. I would have posted them sooner but I had an incrediably shitty week last week, so please excuse my tardiness.:-) Paisley made out like a bandit (check out the loot) and this Halloween it just goes to show that even sheep like to have a good time.....

Just lovely, my little "princess" just ripped out every needle in my broadripple sock. Does anyone mind if I use some profanity right now?? FFFFFF%%$$&&&KKKKKK!!!!!

Knitting but no Blogging

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still here. I've been knitting, but I just haven't been feeling up to blogging too much lately! I'm almost done my Jaywalker socks and I've also started the broadripple socks again on smaller needles. I do need to post some pictures soon though, so stayed tuned either tonight or tomorrow for some pictures of my little Halloweener and some sock stuff! Sorry for my lack of posts, there has been alot going on at home but I should be back soon. Stay tuned!!! :-)
