A very bad post...........

I'm walking here! I'm walking here!
MIDNIGHT COWBOY 1969
If you're a movie buff like myself, you might be familiar with famous quotes from movies.
This is #27.
So one morning back in july the 14 to be exact, I was feeling
silly and I posted that stupid blog. Even my brother
knew what the post was but didn't think much of it. Oh Well!!
My brother is one of those people who loves movies and knows almost everything about moives.
In fact if you ever go on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" you might want him to be your
phone a friend regarding movies.

If you haven't seen this movie I strongly recommend you do.
It was an academy award winner.
It turns out that a taxi driver just drove onto the movie set, Dustin Hoffman not expecting
that came out with that now famous line.
Of course they decided to leave it in the movie.
So if anyone of my blog readers wondered what that post was all about, here's
the answer. I know most of you were. right?

Real Red

This is a felted purse. See my toes in the left hand corner
of the picture. The pattern is " The Lucy Bag" by "Two Old Bags" i got the pattern at Stitches Midwest. No not
this last August, the year before. I'm not doing to badly. Just a year!

The yarn i used in Red color, pretty obvious, is Plymouth's Galway.
I don't uses purses, so I'm going to try and sell it in an upcoming bazaar,
or as I've done in the past, give it away to some lucky person.

This picture is a drawing I did one semester for a school project.
I didn't care much for it untill I got an A on it. Then it started looking
better to me so I framed it and it hangs in my dining room. I shot the picture on an
angle to avoid the glare.
The subject had to be of food. Just thought you'd like to see just how talented I am. LOL!!
The picture looks better in person, so if your interested I'll send you my home address.

IT'S A MONKEY

I joined the "Monkey Sock" bandwagon. If you know anything about me you'll know that I used the yarn called for
in the pattern. Shelridge Farm Soft Touch Ultra Fingering Weight yarn.
I found it to be easy to knit with, and i liked the way it feels.

I was so excited when I saw them at Stitches Midwest, they seemed to be real nice people and I was
glad to buy directly from them. All the colors were so yummy looking.
This pair of "Monkey Socks" is for my daughter-in-laws mother for Christmas.
Lisa, my daughter-in-law, was so impressed with all the socks
that I made for myself, she couldn't resist wanting a pair.
Being the wonderful person that she is, she wanted a pair for her mother.
Lisa's mother doesn't read my Blog so I know I am safe in posting it.
So now on to one of my many other projects already in progess, but which one?
Happy Knitting!!!

DISHCLOTH/WASHCLOTHS

What do you think; do I have enough yarn to make a few cloths?
With the help of so many nice bloggers that belong to the monthlydishcloth KAL
I've found some great looking cloths to knit.

I have given one away and have made a couple more to give away.
They are a nice break from knitting Socks, even though I really don't need a break from
Knitting socks, it's nice to have something else on the needles.
So I'm off to choose a pattern and start another cloth.
Happy Knitting!!
