Who Took My Sleeping Bag?

Hello Campers, it is time for Camp Loopy already, get the bug spray and sleeping bags, smores, and whatever else. Why am I of all people camping, well hop over to Sheri's blog for May 9 and check it out, it is time for Camp Loopy again already. You have to do a designer of another country and at least 400 yards. When I get my yarn I will post a picture but meantime get your stuff ready. http://www.theloopyewe.com/sheri/2012/05/camp-loopy-2012

Beach Sand

I got this yarn last year at the Christmas sale at my fav lys in town. It reminded me on someone so I made this for a gift. Someone will get this shawl this year, hmmmmm wonder who it could be. BTW the gray thing underneath is my body form made with a tee and 3 rolls of duct tape. Fun to make and it takes about 2 hours. Put on a tee you dont' mind losing and cut off the sleeves. Have a good friend duct tape around you 3 times and mark things such as waist, etc. Stuff and put on a hanger.

Mother's Day Socks 2012

This is a free pattern from Knitpicks called Mock Croc Socks. The pattern is very easy to memorize and works up quick. The yarn is Supersocke 100 in the Afrika colorway.

Kindle Halloween

Yes I know you are on a Halloween kick, but what can I say. I was looking for a cover for my Kindle and found this one and had the cotton yarn in Halloween colors so why not. Here it is.

I Heart Lace

I had this yarn for another project but it just did not work out, I just could not figure out the pattern, so I needed a small amount and used all but 10 yards for this. It is a little stiff when washed and blocked but that should not interfere with the wearing of it.

When DId You Last See A

Double Rainbow? I stepped on the deck and saw a rainbow which I hardly ever see anymore when it rains. But when I stepped out front to get the paper there is the double one. Gonna be a great day.

Esther

Meet Esther. She is my nerdbot and thos are knitting needles which belonged to my paternal grandmother who knitted all the time. They are removable in case I need them. Now to find her a place of honor.

Esther is a retired shnchronized and competitive swimmer who loves sports cars and reading murder mysteries. She now spends her free time knitting, baking, sipping strong coffee and caring for her prized cat figurines.

I absolutely love her. You can see more nerdbots at nerdbots.net.

Aloe Vera Plant

Further progress on the aloe vera, I am not quite sure what will bloom but something might.

Watching The Decorah Eagles

I admit I have become an eagaholic. It is so much fun and very addictive to watch these eaglets growing. YOu can watch them grow daily and see how great parents they have.

I caught Bucky looking at momma feed them their morning snack of Trout. If you haven't looked at them what are waiting for, but be careful they will suck you in.

Furthur Bloomage on the Aloe Vera

So here is the bloom and how it is progressing and a picture of the actuall aloe plant, it is a little out of control but hey it is supposed to do this isnt it?

Aloe Vera Plant

I have a huge aloe vera plant that takes up a corner in my house. I replanted it a couple years ago into the biggest pot I could find. I noticed the other day it had this growth. Well it is going to bloom. According to what I could read online it should never bloom. If indoors it is highly unlikely to bloom, they need southern light (it is in the NE corner of the living room), it gets watered whenever, and had never been fertilized. But here it is gonna bloom. I will keep you posted on the progress of the bloom.

Air Your Parts Day
