The answer to that question is yes!!! I was able to finish the edging on my suprising knitting project with a bit left over for a crochet flower... For those that attended the NYGK group last night.. they know what my suprise project is... something fishy about the knitting being so smooth... so even..
could it BE............

Ummm.. yes.. I totally cheated and used a knitting machine for the project.The body took about 30 minutes to complete.. the edging was crochet so of course that was done by hand and took a bit longer.
OOO what is the project?.....



















A baby blanket !!(more like a throw size)for meg(a)knits. Her baby should be arriving some time next week. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get a picture of the finished blanket. This is a picture of it almost finished... There could be more to this story.. (o.0)`

some times the baby comes before the knitting is done.... but it will get done eventually..
...and sometimes the knitting gets done first.. this is a very simple but pretty garter stitch wrap baby sweater ... I'm on the last bit of the front ... hoping to finish this sometime today and move on to my next very surprising project.. stay tune..(^_^)

tO bE or NoT tO bE...(opps wrong story)

















Question:.. can this end up being this ? I shall know in about an hour or so...I was reading some posts on craftster.org.. some possitive and some negative about this baby hat... my oun opinion is that the directions were written very well..the execution was a bit tricky... lots of knit 4s tog, cast on sts and bind them off.. and so on...(u need knitting needles with a good point) "if" i make another miss dashwood..I will know what to expect.. as far as the yarn I'm using.... its soft but not droopy.. just right for the hat..

nOt HaPPy...HaPPy
















More booties!!! I'm not that happy with the finished result. I'm not sure if it was the pattern or the yarn.. maybe both.. I probably wont be making these again....

















My short 'n sweet from Happy Hooker all finished. I decided to block it so the pattern shows up a little better. Right off the hook it looked a little crunched up until I put it on. I like it closed under the bustline so I crocheted a little flower pin to fasten it.. I'm happy with the finished result..(^_^)
