Spring is in the air

I decided that I should start sprucing up my house for Spring! I went to Michael’s today with my husband, and gathered up a bunch of items for an idea I had been tossing around in my head ever since I saw this “monster” fake easter eggs on sale.

For, I picked out these White and Purple tulips, with some, Cherry Blossoms? Not sure if that’s what they are?

Then I got two of these

After some craftyness, with the help of my hubby, voila!

And then they both adorned my mantle, which needed some sprucing up

What’s that you see laid out, it is my Elm Row in Scout’s Peach Pit, the picture doesn’t show too well, but it definitely looks good there.

I’ll be doing more to add that sparkle to my home, possibly a wreath next. Some real late FO’s to share, here is my “Mini-Noro” sock, made for the Reducio Swap Round 9 spoilee. I knitted an i-cord to make it so that you could hang it on a purse or something to show it off.

And lastly, my “Mini-Gryffindor sock”

Both socks were absolutely fun to make and I got some grunge board and made mini-sockblocker, and I got to buy a tool to make grommets in the Mini-sockblocker too, which was pretty fun to play with. Another mini-item is the “Mini-Knitting Bag”, that I made actual skeins with.

More to come, I’ll need to share my day in San Francisco!

Yowza!

It seems like Stitches West 2010 was just the other day, but some time has already went by and I fell short of sharing in some pics of Marisol and I. We met up again this year, but not for long, it was a short but fun experience.

This is us posing with out loot, of course my haul was not as plentiful as Marisol’s but it was enough to drool over for awhile. Here’s another great pic, poof! We turned into Addi Turbos!

I’ll have to share my loot a bit later, still need to take pics, I have other, small but fun FO’s to share.

First, really isn’t small, in fact its knit with Yowza yarn from Miss Babs, in Violets. It is Balsam, a lovely cowl, with a sort of Mad Hatter appeal to it.
