Monsters....

I have been busy around here the past two weeks with my children's activities, so I haven't been working much on any projects.   We had the annual St. Patty's Dinner, an Easter Egg Hunt, and my son's Blue Gold Boyscout event.

As for knitting,  I was working on sock 2 when my Lantern Moon Sox Needle snapped.
My LYS did not have the correct size in stock, so the project was put on hold while awaited it's arrival.

In the mean time, I jumped on the Monster bandwagon.  I ordered the Rebecca Danger Monster book.  While I waited for it to arrive, I began knitting the bunny nuggets.

 I've only made 2 so far, and I used my handspun to make them.  I love them as much as DD.

I quickly realized I needed to learn Magic loop, so I have been self teaching via Youtube video's.
Here's hoping I figure it out sooner than later.

In the meantime...here's a picture of Dewey.

Ten on Thursday

1. It's been a crazy week!  I've been working crazy hours, and I haven't been able to knit very much.

2.  This weekend is St. Patty's Day.  My Italian In-laws are coming over for the annual Irish dinner, which my Italian husband cooks.  He is a better cook them me.  I need to be a cleaning fool today and tomorrow.

3.  It's close to 70 degrees this week in the Philly burbs!  I am loving the Spring Weather.

4. I have two lazy cats who are spoiled rotten.  Dewey is orange and named after the Library cat.  Jingle is a fur ball of love.  She's black and white.

5. Today, I am taking my daughter to her Daisy meeting at a doughnut shop for a tour.   I am a big fan of a quality doughnut.

6.  Monday is St. Joseph's day.  It's a big holiday in our family.  My son makes homemade pasta with his Nana for Dinner.

7.  My daughter and I entered a car in my son's pine derby race.  It's full of my handspun!

8.  Daylight Saving Time has kicked by butt this week!  

9.  My must see TV Shows are: Hart of Dixie, New Girl, Pan Am and Restaurant Impossible.

10.  On My Needles: Pair of Socks for Sunshine (Son) and a Pair of Socks for me!

Trifecta of Awesomeness

Look what came in the mail on Saturday!  My first shipment in the Trifecta Fiber club came!  Whoohoo!
The colorway is based on the book The Princess Bride.  I have never read book or seen the movie.
The fact that I have not seen the movie comes to a complete shock to my husband.  I am somewhat of an eighties movie queen! I love all things from the eighties... particularly...eighty movies.  I have made it a personal mission to make sure my children are watching eighty movies!  I must watch this movie when spinning this awesomeness!
