I went to bed last night before I grafted the toe. Its mate is ready for the toe. I’m hoping I have enough yarn left. #showmeyourknits #WIP

I finished the crochet dog. Not my best work, but I proved to myself that I know enough to teach some youngsters to make their own.

The back of the cross is worn, like a thumb rubbed it many times. Mom and Dad both were civilians with the Air Force in Trinidad in WWII. I think it gave her comfort in those days, and I hope that she knew what it meant, too.

I’m still working on my scrappy DK sweater. I have just a few more rows on the 2nd sleeve before the cuff, then to finish the button rows. #showmeyourknits

It took five years, but I came out of retirement to play and sing at church this morning. I was happy to fill in.

I’ve been trying to think of something grey I’ve made for #ShowMeYourKnits and then remembered this hat.

We watched 101 Dalmatians 4 times (at least) this weekend. I noticed that the woman with the pug seems to be knitting continental. 🧶 Only her right hand moves, but never throws. My family did not find this interesting. 🤨

It’s been a great weekend. The fam was in and we had a great time going to the farmers market, checking out Nelson, the giant Sasquatch, dinner at the Mexican restaurant, playing cards at the bar, and just hanging out. Everything is cleaned up, and now I’m beat.

I’m on sleeve island. I was tempted to leave this as a cap sleeve sweater, but I decided to push on. I’m not sure that I have enough of this yarn for both sleeves, but I have a Mussleburgh hat in the same yarn that I’d be willing to frog. 🧶

After having this sweater on my lap for a few weeks, I'm finally working on the button band. I've got the sweater body done, and I'm still thinking about making it a short sleeve sweater. With these colors it seems to want to be a spring sweater. #ShowMeYourKnits #WIP

I hear that severe thunderstorm and tornado watches are coming soon in west central Ohio. This is the reminder that I sent my friends.

#ShowMeYourKnits is baby themed. This is the most recent baby knit I’ve done. It’s a Baby Yoda sweater for a little boy named Luke.

After all the drama yesterday, I need to step back a bit today and center on good things. So show me your pets. Here’s a picture of Cami for cat tax.

I had to dig back a few years to find colorwork for #ShowMeYourKnits. I hope to do something soon. Meanwhile…

In the light of day, I can see they moved the big rock, and the tire tracks show it was a truck.

So the #showmeyourknits feed has a color today. Here are a couple green items. First is a pair of mitts that I made years ago. They disappeared, but I found them this year. The 2nd is the first of 3 sweaters I’ve made since Oct. I used stash yarn for the yoke and bought yarn for the rest.
