International Scarf Exchange Gifts...

I am ashammed of myself for not posting this picture sooner but....life has a way of getting IN THE WAY!!!

Do not be too jealous of my beautiful Mohair Scarf with Beaded Fringe...It is so soft and yummy!! I know come fall, I will have to fight off my two daughters to wear it myself!!! Along with my scarf, Dorothy sent three different bottles of Crabtree and Evelyn oils that you place on a clay bib over a light bulb, when it heats up...the fragrances are intoxicating!!! The Maple Leaf shaped candies are heavenly and the lip gloss is GONE!!! Thanks girls!!! Dorothy, they enjoyed it! Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness...

Thank you ladies, your hard work at coordinating this and past swaps is so very much appreciated!!!! When do we do it again??!!

KAL Shawl AKA Kitchen Curtain

Now...Here are pictures of my KAL Shawl that turned into a Curtain when it fell off my needles,lost the edge stitches and I could not retrieve them!!! Actually, I started over with Cotton that matches my newly painted Kitchen walls...I just love it...provides just the right amount of privacy from the farmers porch entry.

I am going to try to post this on the AKG at Ravalry but I do not know how sucessful I will be....please just bear with me!!

Ravelry...

I do not know how many of you are involved with Ravelry. I joined last year but didn't do anything with it until recently. It is pretty darn cool, I must say. I have joined a few different groups and we actually started our own...A Knitter's Garden...and we are planning a Knit-Along. Stop by www.ravelry.com for those of you who may be interested.

The buttons above are the groups I have joined, again, check 'em out.
