Day 19 and Twenty

My little girl is getting married today. We are gaining a wonderful son-in-law that we all love very much.

I won't have time to do much knitting today but I will sneak some in somewhere.

OK.... to tell the truth I will be knitting in the car all the way to Toronto. And, while we sit and wait for the bride and groom to get dressed. And, while we wait at the chapel. And, all the way home in the car. Should get a good portion of a scarf done.

Day Eighteen

With a few conversations it was determined that Tuesdays would be a good day of the week for our knitting group. And remember we don't discriminate crocheters are welcome to attend.

The resin pendant is for sale at $20. I have several colours of the ball of yarn and knitting needles with more coming soon.

Fifteenth Day

The day was spent working on Leigh-Anne's wedding ring. It came home from the casting house with several divots in it. Brenda apologized for the problem and said I didn't have to take it if I was unhappy. With just a week to go I don't have time to start over. I am redesigning by carving into the ring with my saw, various burrs and my file. It's going to take a little longer then expected but worth the extra time to make it perfect for my girl. Alex's ring had one small leaf on it and whoever put the sprue on it for the casting put the sprue right on top of the leaf, obliterating it. I will carve a new one.

I will show you a picture of the rings when finished.

This ring will be for Leigh-Anne when she starts sewing and needs a pin cushion.

DAY 14 etsy





I've started taking photographs for my etsy store which I opened about a year ago. I got as far as making a banner before it ground to a halt. I heard that it's not that hard to put an etsy store together so here I go. www.etsy.com
