Jeremiah just finished this puzzle yesterday.
I have been working quite a bit lately. I am working for a car dealership and working a second job on the weekends doing events in the Denver area.
Last night I worked at a block party in LODO (downtown Denver).
There was a band and lots of people in a closed off city block.

Fingerless Mitts for Mom


Fingerless Mitts for Mom

I am quite obsessed with knitting fingerless mitts. I must have at least 6 pairs that I have knit for myself.
I keep knitting them for others. I am always trying to change the pattern to make the perfect pair. This yarn had a color change so the pair is not the same color.

I admit I was a little late finishing my Mothers Day Shawl. Here is my Mom in her new summertime shawl.
The pattern is from a Noro book and it called Sursa.
I hand knit it in a cotton yarn I purchased in Ohio when we lived there.
I saw another shawl pattern made in the Fiberworks (the LYS) when I lived in Dayton. It was made with the same cotton yarn. I thought when the yarn was knit up it was the perfect weight for a summertime evening wrap.
