Not forgotten!

Ok...I swear this blog has not been forgotten! I think I need to start posting more often! It's not like I don't have plenty to share with you guys!

First off we'll start with a cute video of the pups. :) Just because well...they are so CUTE!!



This is part of our routine to go outside. Can you tell Jackjack is feeling GREAT?

Well...there has been lots of knitting....and a little spinning but mostly knitting. First off here is a gift I've been knitting for someone. They are these awesome mitts! You can either use them as finger less mitts or fold over the top and use as mittens! The pattern is the iphone mitts by Julie Ridl. This first pair was done using some NH Knitting Mama Franconia yarn in that Auntie Colorway. This is a Superwash Merino, Cashmere, Nylon base and I love it! These are so comfy and warm.

The color is really a bit more lilac in real life but I'm not a photography genius...I only wish I was. :)

The 2nd pair I'm working on for myself is using some Shelby B's Designs yarn in the Lilly Potter colorway. I'm actually using a similar yarn base called Supreme Sock from Shelby's that is the SW Merino, Cashmere, Nylon. Love these colors and it's knitting up very nicely!

I don't have any spinning pictures but I'll get some soon. I spun up some lovely merino but next up on my wheel is the cormo roving I bought at SAFF! I can't wait!

I'm still considering the Blog365 starting on Dec 1st. :) So...you may get to see and read a lot more from me soon.

Happy Tuesday!!

Happy Dogs on Thursday!!

Because she's so darn cute and I can't resist her face...this is what I see more often than not as I lay in bed. If it's not her...it's the other pup. :)Jackjack has become so silly! He has become this dog who asks for loving. He never was like that when I first got him...but when you come close to him now or get up he either starts wagging his tail which neither of us can resist and we pet him or he turns over on his back for you to rub his belly. I can't help but want to love on him then. :)
Ok...yes. I know I've neglected this blog a lot! I still have information to add to the last post and I rarely post anymore. So...I've been thinking how to get this straight again....that's when I saw a post from a friend about blog365. You post every day for a year. I'm thinking of starting it either Dec 1st or January 1st. It's still an idea. ;) I'm not sure I want to do photo365 along with it yet...that's my last deciding factor before we officially start blog365. Anyone else interested in starting too...I could use the support! :)

Ok...well...as usual don't forget to check out this week's DOT post! HAPPY Dogs on Thursday!!
