Two Treats This Week!

Barbara B made individual Cheesecake Factory Brown Bread loaves for all the Chicks as a Valentine gift. That is so sweet of her!!! I can't wait to have a slice warmed up and slathered in butter!

Our finger food for the afternoon was sourdough cinnamon sticks. Just sweet enough to hit the spot!

It was a full house today with lively conversation that kept everyone laughing. Unfortunately, we can't share the topic in polite company. 

Let's just say it all started over the discussion of the tv show "The Pitt".

 

Margaret completed the 3x1 ribbed hat that was in progress last week. She started it with a provisional cast on so it would have a nice thick brim.

Carole is using up the last of the James C. Brett marled yarn for her scarf. She loves the colors but the splitty yarn is not her favorite.

Dorah's LOSY hat is almost finished. She used two leftover sock yarns (that's where we get LOSY) that were from a shawl she knitted for her daughter.

Barbara B is working on a Minecraft Hat. This is the prototype to see if she likes it. Then she plans on making another to gift.

Tina's honeycomb scarf is still in progress. It is going to be a cozy wrap when it's finished.

Barbara K's striped scarf has just a little bit more to be knitted. 

The tiny ball of yarn is all that is left.

Margaret is nearing the decreasing portion on her Helix Hat.

Nancy is beginning the decrease portion of her Melt the Ice Toque using my notes to complete it. There have been many variations posted since its original introduction so if you make one from a free pattern, it would be nice if you could make a donation to a fund that helps those who have been affected by recent events in Minneapolis.

After the first batch I knitted were sold, I made another bunch of tiny hats to wear on a lapel when you can't wear a hat. They are being sold at Cece's Wool in Guilderland to help support those affected by ICE terrorists.

Right now I'm using up some scraps of left overs to make a hat that I'm making up as I go along.

Well, it looks like I'm being paged. 

Too bad he doesn't understand he won't be getting his dinner until 5PM!

Have a great week and keep those needles clicking!
