Spring Fling Hat

This hat is my souvenir--knit from a special pattern with yarn I bought during Spring Fling. We are about to hit the time when the knits get packed away, but my needles will keep on clacking away!

(The top picture shows our awesome stitch marker--and the bottom picture a small boy crashed my photo session!)

Lincoln Quotes: Mother-Son Date Knight at Chick-fil-A

We had a blast having a date "knight" at our local Chick-fil-A, and here were Lincoln's top lines:
1. "I like the knight cow the best because he was inviting everyone in!"
2. "This is so exciting! I never had dessert here before!"
3. Balloon Artist: "What would you like?" Lincoln: (jumping out of seat) "A yellow bow and a green arrow!" Also, getting "my bow and arrow" was the best part of his night!

Loopy Ewe Spring Fling: Finale & Finished Objects

I am already missing the fabulous, relaxing, new friend filled, inspirational, fun, productive, and educational Spring Fling!

I am delighted that I finished three objects there: a hat from my fair isle class, a giraffe from my build-a-toy class, and a honeycomb cowl I knit at the great knitting lounge!

First, I finished my hat from Susan B. Anderson's marvelous fair isle hat class, then I went to her build-a-toy class and made a giraffe for Lincoln!

A quick respite from my loopy fling: dad took Lincoln to our local and traditional spring festival: Baby Animal Days!



Loopy Ewe Spring Fling Day Two: Shopping & Learning

I signed the giant sock blocker, traveled to a yarn store in a limo, and learned a ton of new techniques!
