I love getting pictures of the kids at Christmas time. This is my sister Kelly's 2 - Wyatt and Jessica...
And this is my sister Dawn's 2 - Allen and Eva...
And my sister Debbie's 4....Stephanie, Jessica, Melanie, and Matt.

On the crocheting front: Got the Lacy Cardigan almost done. Put it together and did the bottom edging. Just have to do the neck edging and the sleeves and the right and left bands, put on a few buttons and it should be ready to wear by 1/2!!! Will post a picture when done!

Happy New Year!

Finally finished my SWTC Bamboo top. Got the yarn and free pattern from Knit N Knibble in Tampa FL . It was the first textured stitch I did. The only modifications I did was the neck edge I made it a little lower and did a reverse half double crochet edging at the neck and a revers double crochet at the bottom edge. I think it came out great!

Happy Holidays to all!

Here is a great picture of my sister Debbie's 4 kids. I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year! We are going to Sea World and Disney's Hollywood Studios (used to be called MGM) to see the Osborne Specticale of Dancing Lights!

On the knitting front: I FINISHED MY BAMBOO TOP! Hurray I can wear it for Christmas. I'll get a picture sometime next week. Got about 6-8" done on the sleeves for my first top with sleeves. This one is going to be amazing looking!

On the crocheting front: I think I ran out of black for my cardigan. Have to look through my stash again, or buy a skein or two!

On the Yorkie Front: We got a couple doggies adopted but there are more that need a new forever home. If you know anyone interested in making a lifetime commitment to a dog, please consider a rescue or ASPCA or Humane Society. www dot yorkiefriendrescue dot com

Here's a picture of the Family. Eva's Christening! Too bad I couldn't make it. I heard everyone in NY had a great time. Boy do I miss my family especially this time of year. Hope everyone is having a Happy and Healthy Holiday!

On the crochet front: I finished the round ripple baby blanket. It came out cute. There is a picture on ravelry YFRKERRIE.......... Haven't picked up the crocheted black cardigan in a while.

On the knitting front: Still have to finish the edging on the bamboo top. Already started my next project. I am no longer a knitting monogamist.

On the Yorkie front: We have some great small dogs (not all Yorkies) on YorkieFriendsRescue.com so if you know anyone who is interested........HINT HINT HINT

On the Scuba front: Drove ALLLLLL the way to West Palm on Sunday and our dive was cancelled due to the waves being too high. Hopefully we will go to Crystal River this weekend and I will finally be certified (and have proof LOL).
