Just in case you missed this!

C. Wurtenburger Dolly (and adorable daughter)

 

 

Cheryl Wurtenburger knit this little doll  for her daughter.   I think it’s really a great idea.  You can make  many different dolls and stuffed animals with just some imagination and little time.  Also, its such a great way to use up left over yarns.

 When I asked about shade plants, I really received some great ideas from many folks.   Here are some photos sent to us from Dora R Wilkerson.   Thanks to all for the imput.   I am going to have so much fun once the rain ever returns to our Virginia area.

RUGS

  • rug1.JPGJust finished my first rug.   It’s about 26″ wide and 36″ long.   Really feels good on bare feet-Lion Brand wool Ease yarn, and some remmants of other yarns.   So, It was so much fun……I’ve decided to go into the rug business.   This has become such a  great project for me.   I think I’m going to decorate my house with unique rugs, wall hangings, placemats and so many other ideas.    I just need to find the  perfect  durable  yarns, colors and such.    The knitting board is perfect for this.   How else could you get the thickness with 2 sided effects?   Hand made rugs can be very expensive, but are so pretty coordinating with   a room’s decor.   Should I add fringe to this rug?   I was thinking of some Christmas designs for in front of the fireplace.   Matching throw pillows?   OK, as soon as I find the greatest yarn in the world for these fun projects,  I  will pass it on to everyone.

Jupiter, our newest model

Jupiter just had her first photo shoot. She is  a 5 year old really cool GREAT DANE. She loves to wear knit creations and so far, she has had a lot of patience with wardrobe changes.

Jupiter wearing her favorite scarf. She’s waiting for me to knit her a cozy sweater to match.   I told her that there’s a lot of other good doggies out there that are waiting for a knitted sweater, too.   That’s something we’re working on.   She’s so patient-what a sweetie.

Jupiter wearing a doggie cape.   Well, it’s not exactly a sweater, but she thinks she’s really styling.
