Ribbed Diamond Toe Up Sock Pattern

Here is another new sock pattern from me. I like this pattern, and I named it
Ribbed Diamond Toe Up Socks.
The ribs are obvious, the diamonds are very subtle.
The yarn is Knit Picks Bare that I dyed myself.
These socks will look great with my new yellow sweatshirt!

I've been having fun creating new sock patterns. I have another pair on the needles now.
I love knitting socks......and I love wearing them even more!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR and Celebration Toe Up Socks

Here is my first sock pattern for 2011.
I named this sock pattern 'Celebration Toe Up Socks' and you can find the pattern here.
I am charging $5.00 for the pattern.
I really, really like this pattern!
I hope you will like it, too.

Today is Jan. 2, and both of our kids are on the highway heading to their respective homes. Man, the house is quiet!! We will miss them...and Muffy will miss them too!

I pray you will all have a blessed New Year.

New Years Toe-up Socks

Here is my latest sock pattern. I named this pattern "New Years Socks" because they are the last ones that I will create this year. I made these socks out of Wildfoote Sock Yarn that I purchased at Fabrications. It was very nice yarn to work with!

Here is the link to the pattern

It's been a long, long time since I posted on my blog.
The puppy (Muffy) keeps me busy, and she doesn't like it if I'm on the computer too long. LOL
She rules the roost around here!

I want to wish you all a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
And remember to
KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS....
for HE IS the REASON for the SEASON!!

Painting and Spinning...never a dull moment!

Just a couple class projects that we did in my watercolor class.
The gals all did really great.

Last night was supposed to be our last class, but we didn't get
completed, so we will have a final class next week.
What a great class!

I've been doing some spinning also.

This will be sock yarn. I love the color. :)
I can just see it made into socks!

Muffy......

Muffy is sure growing. We are enjoying her so much.

The last picture was taken this morning.
She is 12 weeks old now.

I am going to spin today. I have some periwinkle roving that I'm spinning into sock yarn.
The weather is icky, so it's a good day to be inside.

Puppies and Socks

I finished another sock pattern last week.
I named these "Autumns Harvest".
It is an easy pattern to memorize, and I really
like the way the socks turned out.

I will use this pattern over and over, as I really like
the way they turned out.
I LOVE my handmade socks!!




Now....news about the puppy........

So, Muffy has decided to hold up the other ear
and let the one that she was holding up flop down. LOL

Gotta love the look!!

Heeeeerrrrreeeeee'ssss Muffy!

We have a new baby Yorkie at our house.
We've missed our Sassy soooooo much, so couldn't resist when
this little girl became available.

This is Muffy....taken when she was 3 weeks old.
:)

Here she is at 7 weeks. She weighed in at 1 1/3 lb on the day I got her
at 6 1/2 weeks.

Here she is at 8 weeks. She decided to hold her ears up for a couple
of days, and then got tired of that look and let them droop again. LOL

Here she is at 9 1/2 weeks (taken yesterday)
She's trying a new look with the ears. *ggg*
She weighed in at almost 2 lb today!
She's getting BIG. *grins*

Our 110 - 120 lb yellow lab is scared of her!
She's a bully. LOL

Well, this is it for me for today.
Hopefully I can start being more faithful here again.
