WooHoo Here's My Gold Metals




I have added my Knitting Olympics Gold to my blog. Scroll down to my buttons section and they are there. Beautiful aren't they!
It has been a long hard road back to knitdom and yes! I am having crochet withdrawl too.... ROFL!



Again, I thank Yarn Harlot for coming up with this wonderful crazy idea as well as all my team mates competing in the Knitting Olympics, fellow team mates on Team Canada, Team Hooker and also Team DPN. Team DPN especially for coming up with a special Gold Metal for the Team give me two Gold's in the 2006 Knitting Olympics!





It was fun to take part and I as most of my fellow teammates can't wait until 2008! Happy Knitting and Crocheting!





So now in training for the next time..... I am 3/4 the way through sock number one of another pair for my husby! Ok the browns and blues I am using for his socks are gorgeous and he might end up having to put up a fight to get them from me when I am done making them for me... ahem, I mean HIM! (yes I know socks are addicting! NO KIDDING!)

And to relieve the Crochet withdrawl I am working on two more little girl ponchos for friends at work. Ok so they had to wait till the Olympics was over but they are soooooo cute it's worth the wait!

Oh geez ya and my booger!!!! Awwww... sigh..... so many projects, so little time!

Gotta surprise tonight from my husby and my son! Ok well not quite a surprise I knew we were getting them but I they were here when I got home. ! Yes our Team Canada Jerseys! Don't we look just so spiffy??? :D
Now I am just waiting for my Knitting Olympics Canadian Team Jersey to arrive and I am good to go!

Ok I was out shopping pretty much all day for Baptism gifts for my four (yes I said four!!!) Grandkids. *Think I should wear my new jersey to the church? (wink)* And yes I totally broke the 'Bank of Granny' Oh well gotta love it! after all they are my darling grands and this will only happen once in their lives. I am just so happy it will be a very special day for them.
My problem... NO KNITTING TODAY! and ya it's all their faults! and yes I am pouting! is this where I say Na-na na-na na na ???? LOL
