Long time no update from the Kirstie...

So I have been busy ... and lazy. I am so many WIPs I thought I would post a few pics. I am trying to knit as many Christmas presents I can. I have all this yarn and no $$ - it is just so logical... or something.

So here ya go!

SP6 Goodies I just got. YAY!~ for hand made stitch markers and hand dyed yarn! Thank you Secret Pal! You Rock!


Glove I made for my friend Ali - to match the orange Warmth I am getting a pic of once I see her again. But this time she will heave her matching gloves also. I have to start the mate soon.

Socks are great! I am making this pair for my mom. She likes Bright colors. I am thinking about putting a pom-pom on the back... they are ankle socks after all ^_^ Have to have the mate done by Thanksgiving... should be no problem.

And these socks are for my dear boo... once I finish them. She is the reason I can knit socks ^_^ This is still the 1st of the pair... theses seem to be taking FOREVER.

I think that is about it for now... I have other FOs that I gave away before I got a picture of them... sily me. But I plan on getting pics once I see those people again. SO THERE! HA!

Until next time...

In 28 days...

...I'll be a spinster. Yes, on that day, I'll turn 27 AND I'll have my Ashford Traveller! My first wheel... I can't wait. For my birthday, Mom is getting me the wheel and my dad is getting the matching spinning chair. I placed the order yesterday, and let me tell you this: If you are going to buy a wheel, and are in Louisville/Southern,In area, PLEASE purchase it from Grinny Possum. These folks are great and deserve tons of success.

And where shouldn't you shop? Friends and Fiber in LaGrange, Ky. I went there on Saturday and was disappointed that it took 15 minutes for the two ladies working to even aknowledge me. I wouldn't have bought anything, except they had some llama roving that was wonderfully soft. I won't be heading back though.
