A knit animal?

Baby Bootie Non-finished
Originally uploaded by The Knitting Fool.

Not really. It's actually a baby bootie that hasn't been sewn up yet. It does kind of look like a buffalo though, doesn't it?

I need to make the other one still, and then two more sets because there are three baby boys to knit for! I don't know that they are all Hawkeye fans, but I guess the colors are o.k. for now!

What a week...

Extreme Makeover is over in Iowa. It's going to air Nov. 5. If that changes, I'll post here. I've got to pick a few photos to post soon as well. It was fun, but I worked like a dog. I'm in PR, so I had to handle the media with my team, and it was exhausting. But, it was an amazing experience. I'll share photos when I can.

And, my dear boyfriend (he says accidentally, but I think it was on purpose) gave away my "sell or trade" pile of yarn. I'm not sure when or if I'm going to get it back now. I'm not very happy about that.

More scoop...

O.k. - I'm a total slacker on everything I said I would be doing. Here's the thing. You know that show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? Well, it's in Iowa, and I'M HELPING OUT MOST OF THE WEEK ON SITE!!!

AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

So you're not going to get much from me this week. Maybe, just maybe, if I get permission, I'll post a photo or two. In the meantime, visit the project web site here (and sign up to volunteer if you can!!)

Here's the scoop

You know, a big pet peeve of mine is when someone posts on their blog that they didn't have a camera to post photos with, so no photos, they'll do it later...blah, blah, blah...

You'll notice my last post was about posting photos the next day. Well, I kept leaving my camera at work all week. I have become those people. Actually, I was always those people, I just like to think of myself as better than that. ;)

So, went through the majority of the stash last night. I don't have as much as I thought I did. Most of what I'm planning on trading or selling is fairly novelty-type yarn, just because I used to sell knit scarves at craft shows, and I'm sort of done with that now. I do have a fair amount of wool in there.

Of course, I don't have photos. Those will be taken tonight...I PROMISE!!

Oh, and the knitting bug might have hit me last night....I started KNITTING again! Remember all of those babies (twins boys to one friend, and a surprise baby from another?) All three baby boys were born last week - so I'm making booties!!! Photos of those when they're finisehd next week...

Yarn Sale!!

Well, kind of. Tonight, I am going to (hoepfully) sort and inventory my yarn stash, and put some of it on here for trade/sale. My blog doesn't have a high readership, so I"m not sure how the sale will go, so watch this space tomorrow and tell your friends!
