Their Park

They love this park!  We try to get there early...

slides and climbs and swings and exercisers and  music makers

beautiful morning to be here!

He is so much fun!

Picnic table under slides

 

Come back Bray, please don't make me chase you anymore!!

She is taking a picture of me taking a picture of her

Clouds are rolling in....have to chase Bray all around the field to try to get him into the car.

Back home before the storm...it was a good day

 

Annie's Blanket

For my friend Annie...on her 55th Birthday!

 

I loved making her this blanket!  

I didn't have to many color changes,

which means fewer end to sew in...that makes me VERY happy!

I love the white outline of each square.

small, but not too small.

a very simple edging...one row of single crochet, followed by a chain 4 skip one row...

don't know what that is called, but I like it.

A smallish blanket, perfect to throw in their camper and head out. Lightweight, soft.

 



I love the whole process of making a blanket for someone...picking out colors, deciding on patterns and needle sizes,  big squares or little squares, borders...knowing that this person will (hopefully) love it as much as I do.

 

I used Caron Simply Soft:
Soft Mint
Watermelon
Lemon
Grape
Limelight
Melon
White

Size 4.5 hook

52 Weeks of Happy (2 of 52)

 

 

-  Starting a new knitting project.

-  Awesome looking clouds on our way to celebrate "Opportunity"

-  Squirrels who run in front of me, and scare me to death!

-  Love...it's everywhere if you look for it.

Kind of a weird week...

So many possibilities for Alex. 

But what's best? 

What will help him the most?

I will keep at it because he is so worth it!
