for the youngest, who has requested somewhere warm & sunny...
~a little knitting squeezed in~
I've had this yarn leftover...not even sure what exactly it is, but I knew it would be perfect for the chunky knit beanie.

Thanks for the link to the chunky knit beanie. Now I know what to do with some leftover Patons Shetland Chunky. Love your bags!
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely yarn. :)
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see how the beanie turnes out!
Best of luck on the search for a school in the sun :)!
ReplyDeleteI love the yarn! It looks so fun! It seems like it would be difficult to knit though since it is soo thick?? I can't wait to see what you create!!! :)
That looks nice yarn, I expect you have finished it by now! Best wishes for the school search.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to the beanie.
ReplyDeleteI love the yarn. I have been knitting hats lately. I've done three in the past month and had a great time seeing my girls put them on and model for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm back to socks right now but always have a dishcloth on the needles, too.
I love your knitting posts, well, I love all your posts. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

Good luck with your college search.

Great patterns! Sunny colleges where we have had children are University of Florida, and Florida Southern. Both great schools! We live in Charlottesvile Va. where the median temp. in winter is about 40, and lots of sun. No snow yet this winter either! ( I am from Michigan, and would like some of the white stuff !!!)
ReplyDeleteHope you find a college that is perfect for your youngest.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I just admire your knitting, and hope I can learn more about knitting in the future, I am still a beginner. I especially love your mug cozies, and will just have to come back for one!
ReplyDeleteHi! I just found your site and love it! I am only a beginner what comes to knitting, but I love doing cross-stitching, all kinds of crafts, scrapbooking, flower wreaths, etc. I live in Finland and we do need those knitting skills.. ;) Winter is kind of long here.. :)Going to try to knit those hats... Greetings from Finland!
ReplyDeleteWow, are you already looking at colleges for your youngest!? Congratulations! I hope you have an easy and fun time of it.
ReplyDeleteI love this beanie. It is going to be beautiful in this color!

That yarn looks lovely. Want to go somewhere warm too. I don't blame your youngest. I'm not looking at colleges or anything. I'm just having a hard time with winter this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to the chunky knit beanie Deb - I have lots of left over wool & this looks like a great little pattern!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the Junk Style on your sidebar. I was really curious about the book since I have started in that direction with my decorating. I just got it today and I love the pictures. I think it's a neat book that I can refer back when I need inspiration. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI love the chunky yarn. It works up so quick. Good luck on the college search. We will be doing that in 2 years! Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I am new to blogging (as of today in fact) and was so happy to find yours. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteThe beanie looks warm. I love chunky yarn. It looks so warm and cozy. You are always making something.
ReplyDeleteCome for a visit, and put your name into the hat for an anniversary give away.

I love a good quick knit!
ReplyDeleteBtw, I'm having a giveaway on my blog this week.
Beautiful blog! Your pictures really have inspired me to take a quiet moment and learn how to knit. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll put my vote in for Clemson!! Okay, so it does get chilly there in the winter, but not too bad! Or there's always Florida State, or Valdosta State, or, well, yeah, I LIVE in South Georgia, so there! Wait, wait, wait, Charleston! That's where I want to go!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the college search. I would love to be able to knit. How fun!
ReplyDeleteHmmm warm and sunny: Texas A&M Corpus Christi!!!! That is where I got my bachelors in accounting! Its the only college in the US on an island! hehe! Its a great place! www.tamucc.edu check it out!
ReplyDeleteI need to try and knit a beanie...I am on my 9th scarf and I learned just under a month ago, but still haven't attemped a beanie!!!!
Have fun and stay warm!

UT Austin is awesome. Most awesome public university I have ever come across. I think it's a great deal for the money. Duke is great, too, and quite temperate.
