The scarf came out soooo soft and wonderful. I am extremely pleased with the yarn. I think I may use the rest to create a cardigan if I have enough.
I started some cute fingerless gloves yesterday while playing video bingo with my friend. We had alot of fun but, no winning :(
I had the opportunity to visit an Asian market today and got a few fun things. Other than that I am going to finish the gloves and post them hopefully tomorrow. I think they will be a nice pattern for beginners or intermediate beginners. Hopefully they will turn out as I imagine.
Off to knit

Started new scarf with cashmere!!
Today I started a new scarf with some cashmere I ordered from Colourmart. So lovely!! Can't wait to see how it evolves. So far I like it. Hope to have it done this weekend and then back onto the green sweater. Tonight I went off to my son's open house at school. As usual it was fun. He is doing great for the most part so I am really happy about that!!!!
Did some more laundry, it never seems to end and am now watching CSI with my son. And my cat -
Morti
Here is a pic of Morti - my baby
Isn't he cute!!!!
He is such a big baby. He needs a hug everyday or he follows me around until I pick him up.
Well off to knit again!! It is relaxing and I love to create new designs so I enjoy it!!

Introducing Frost
Here is Frost. The latest pattern for fall.
I really like how this came out. The yarn purchased at Colourmart - http://www.colourmart.com/ is terrific. I will have to get some more in another color. After washing it was so light and flufy it is perfect for this scarf. The pattern is available on Etsy and Ravelry so take a look and see if it is the right pattern for you. Well I am off to knit some more and do some laundry. :)

So the time is NOW!!
Yes the time has come again when knitting is in fashion .... so to speak. I mean only that you will not sweat pounds away when knitting. Even though I knit year round and some may look at me funny when it is 90 degrees and I am still working with Alpaca. I love the fall when I no longer get those are you out of your mind stares.
Last week I received two packages that I am so excited to receive. The first from Knit Picks with so much wonderful lace yarn. They were having a sale. :)
I also recieved some great stuff from Colourmart - they were not have a sale but their prices are like having a sale everyday anyway :)
I just finished my first project with the Colourmart yarn - it is blocking as we write. I was so impressed with how it cleaned up. I know they say it has oil on it from the machines but I can never see it. This time I put it in a sweater bag and washed it in the washer on delicate with woollite and wala - it bloomed up like there was no tomorrow. It is so soft and squishy and I love it. Tomorrow I will list it on Ravelry and on my etsy site for sale -- It is a fun, easy and fast shawlish/scarf named Frost
The next item I am working on is a soft green more of a celery color sweater. I like it but I am still working on the body part so we will have to see how it works out. After that I will start another project but, I am still thinking what I want to do next!!
Last night I was working on an Ebook. I am not sure if I should publish it or try to get it published ... Still thinking it over. It is a collection of leaf scarves and I am naming it at the moment - Twisted Leaves..
