Maple Leaf Socks and Yard Sale Treasure

-
Not much time to post. It's been a heckuva weekend, but wanted to post a picture of Mr. Bee's finished Maple Leaf socks and an awesome lighthouse tapestry that I found at a yardsale this weekend for $2! It totally goes in our Master Bedroom!



Went yard sale-ing and to the Alpaca festival on Saturday with friend-D and then Mr. Bee's folks came down from Marshfield way today for a visit so we went to lunch and to see Mr. Bee's new office....and played with Ben of course! Was a nice day. Now I'm going to catch up on laundry!

The socks turned out great! And great yard saling find. I skipped the Alpaca Fest this year. I've got a cold and it was a hectic weekend.

Those socks are great...I love the pattern. I forgot to mention that I love all your quilts, too. I've tried quilting but just don't have the patience. About the Diamond Drop Lace Dishcloth...the pattern is by KnitWits. I looked on their site but couldn't find it. You can join the Monthly Dishcloth group and get the pattern through them (link on my blog) or I found this pattern that's very similar except for the border...http://wishingiwasknitting.blogspot.com/2007/04/happy-green-day.html. It's called Bridal Shower Lace Cloth.

Just got a comment on my last blog entry reminding me that Monday is actually the last day of November, not today. So I have TWO more entries to complete NaBloPoMo; today and TOMORROW. How sad would that have been...to blow the whole thing because I can't read a calendar? I just figured, hey, December is coming next week, might's well start it out first thing on Monday! This here is a picture of my BubberKev and I at Thanksgiving. We're taking a momentary break from strangling each other to goof at the camera. Our mamma must be so proud! Back to online Christmas shopping! Have a great Sunday evening!

Lots of New Tangle Pattern Ideas!

I've been setting aside tangles that I've created in a special file in my cabinet. When I put one in last night, I realized that I had quite a stockpile and that I hadn't put only of them out there for others to try...so here they all are. I'm not good at stepouts or at naming. Most of them are named after placed in Maine...just because. I'd love to see any tangles that you've done that use any of these patterns! Have fun and tangle on!
