Yeah!  My office is finally finished.  Plenty of space for laying sewing and knitting out, lots of good light from the three large windows.  Plenty of organization.  It’s just great!  I even got all of my needles, fabric, yarns, books, patterns, and UFO’s organized….it took forever.

Just thought this was really pretty and deserved to be in here.  My friend crochet two of these for me from worsted weight Sugar and Cream.  I keep one at my desk, and I keep one in my knit bag.  They work so well, I simply love them!  She wrote down the pattern and gave it to me so I guess I better get to work making some for stocking stuffers this year.

This is yarn I recently ripped out from an A&F sweater that was a thrift store find.  I didn’t realize it at the time, but it is 50% wool and was dry clean only.  Now that it is ripped out I just have to find a project for it and someone that loves it’s bright colors!  I have no clue what I will do with this.  I have a feeling that it might soon become a dog sweater or put in a trade of some sort.  I have half a sweater’s worth as the front had a zipper that was basically glued into it so I didn’t want to spend the time ripping it out.  I am trying to use the front to make a purse or something, so far it isn’t going as planned and will also probably end up in a trade.  It is definately a bulky weight.

Yarn Ripped

You all know the famous Nicholas and his custom knit sweater.  I hope that everyone that has knit this for their piggy has enjoyed the fun as much as I have!  Nicholas just turned 2 and is just as cuddly as ever.  He was just moved into the play room so that he can be with everyone during the day.  I think he likes the extra attention.

This is Duke, our first ever dog.  He is a rescue and a sweet heart.  He is a Lab and Hound mix.  Very smart, but also very much the personality of Eeyore!
