Out Like a Lamb Dishcloth cont..

Continuation of my Out Like a Lamb dishcloth. So far I have been knitting now for 2 days. It is going okay for me. I am watching Hulu and doing the knitting at the same time and I took some pictures using my work camera. Hopefully I would get it all done by today. Anyways here are some of the pictures. I am currently knitting row 28 Not bad for a days job .. well I will continue to post as much as I can on the same on so that people don't get bored with me..

Here are some of the photos I took about 10 minutes ago...




Now I am at Row 40..

Out Like a Lamb Dishcloth

I have just started on another dishcloth. It is called Out Like a Lamb. It is done on Blue Lily Sugar n Creme yarn. The pattern is by Emily Jagos. It is pretty easy to do.. Right now I am on Row 18.. It is going okay. Doing dishcloth is pretty easy. I am hoping that eventually I could learned to do other types of dishcloth that uses two different yarns. Maybe someone could show me how sometime.

Anyways, I am at work, I will have to take a picture of this knitting project and hopefully it will turnout good in the end. I will post more info on my progress tomorrow..

Stars Dishcloth

To my amazement I am knitting quite well now. After getting the doghouse dishcloth done there where left over yarn and I decided to make another one and its called star. It took me a day and a half to finished it. I have not taken any photos of it as I was busy cooking, cleaning and making food for the week. Anyways, I am at work today and starting on another dishcloth pattern.

I will eventually post picture of the star dishcloth (It will be this weekend) so that everyone can see it. I would like some opinion of what you think about it..

Thanks..

Doghouse- dishcloth cont...

So today is my continuation of my knitting. So far it is going okay. I am just doing this during my free time. As I am going my dishcloth I found a cool website for all those who knit. It is called Ravelry. It is for knitters alike to post their work and stuff.

I have a post in there about my dishcloth I am making and my stash of yarns. Obviously I am not at home to update that since i don't even know that I have at home. Anyways, my knitting is doing really good.. Check out the photo I put in here. It is pretty cool I think.

I will blog more once I get my knitting done here..

Doghouse- Dishcloth

Today I have started and restart doing my doghouse dish cloth. I got the design from Emily Jagos on her website She offers a variety of design for you to do.

Anways I've jsut started my doghosue dishcloth, so far it is going okay. I used my new knitting needle size us7 (4.5mm). The color yarn I am using is sage green. I think it will be beautiful. Anyways here are some picts that i have. I took this one at work and will take the finishing product once i am done..

Knitting - Dishcloth

I just started my knitting again. As usual I lost my knitting needles thanks to the cat.. Yes I said the cat.. She is into stealing knitting needles making it her toy. So on Saturday I went to Craft Direct ( my fave place for crafting) to get a new needle.

Anyways, I got my needles and 2 skein of 100% lily sugar creme yarn to start my dishcloth project. I think I need to get a book on it too. I have been printing patterns of the Internet of Pict's i think i like to do. I am thinking doing this dishcloth for prezzie to give people.

Hey it is something you do from you heart and i think it would be a great gift. I am looking into buying softer cotton yarn that could be used as washcloth for babies and ppl..

more to come soon..

Spending a day with a friend...

On Tuesday, I went to visit a friend of mine in Houston. Sohrab have been in Houston TX for the last 10 years. It was a good visit.

I met him at Galleria. It is a hip and happening place.Basically is it like shopping in int luxuries shopping mall. I was told by my Friend that Galleria is one of the oldest shopping mall they have there.

WE spend about 1 Hrs together. We went to eat at Madeline. It has a really nice puff pastry with mushroom sauce. It was one of Sohrab's fave places. Anways We caught up on old stuff and talking about people that we know.

It was an enjoyeable day to me..

A Day downtown Houston / Galveston Texas

The very next day (saturday March 27) was a very tiring day. My Brother had a lunch date with his officemate so We went downtown Houston to check the city out as my parents have not been there before. I don't even think that my brother in law knows where we were going.

Anyways, we ended up at the Visitor center seing a movie about the city and also bougth some magnets for some friends n mom.. I took a picture of a building with a reflection of a cloud in it. I think its pretty cool.

That day my sister and I walk to hard rock cafe and I got myself a t-shirt. It is a cute fishy design by Bono..

After being in Houston for 1 hour, we drove to Galveston Tx... Yeah Ron (my bro-in-law) drive's like a nut.. Changing lanes without signals and doing not a whole lot. when we eventually got there we only saw old buildings.. nothing but old and alot fo abandon houses. I surely did not take any pictures but my dad n brother did.. Hope that you enjoy it..

Travelling to Houston, Texas

Friday 3/25/10 I started my day in St Cloud, MN going to Houston, TX to visit my family and friends. I was so excited to go that day. My flight didn't leave MSP till 1.34pm. Anyways, I start going to the airport early thinking that you need time to check-in and also go through security.

We left at 9.30 am as I had errands to do that day before I leave (going to the bank n making sure that everything is paid including rent)all said n done We were on the road to MSP at 10.00 am.. I thought that I would be there at about 12.15 pm.. No.. speedy (me) got us there at 11.00 am sharp. (Darn, need to slow down sometime)..

Since we had time to kill, I decided that We should go shopping. (I keep saying we because I brought Rick with me to take the car back!)We went to MOA(Mall of America) to do some last minute shopping.. When I say last minute.. I really mean it last minute..

I went to Pandora got my niece Ilham a bunny charm and I also bought some make-up for myself..All said n done, We got out of there about 12.10 pm and got to the airport on time much to say about the damn plane!!

Yup here me waiting n hungry.. Did I mention Delta don't serve food during a 3hrs flight.. Yup, I was hungry.. The flight to Houston got called at 1.15pm for boarding. It was a full flight... My seat wasn't so great! I got the last seat at the back of the plane by the bathroom next to a window.. (I like Isle seat)

After everyone board the plane was on the runway and the pilot went on the speaker.. " Ladies n gents.. I am sorry to inform you that we are experiencing a technical difficulties.. we have to taxi back." In my brain.. god dammit.. There is always a problem with the plane!..

It took them about 1 hrs to figure that they can't fixed the problem and let us out to get on another plane. While waiting at the terminal they said that we are now waiting for a new crew as the old one the hrs has expired.. Hmm I wonder how hrs can expire don't' u?

Yup my trip was an exciting one and once said and done I got to Houston TX at 6 pm. hungry n tired....
