Aran fronts are working up fast!


After a few blunders along the way, I have the two pockets in the fronts. I knit some more at my cousins house last night while she is still knitting away on her short rib socks for herself. I took these two pictures of my progress. I am on ball 6 of the 13 I purchased...hope there is enough. If there is any left over, I want to make some socks out of this cascade 220. Color # is 2401. Used a flash this time as it was around 9 pm causing the color to look light again. Oh well, I am a knitter not an expert in photography. Though I have been paid a few times for some of the photos I have taken when I worked at the local newspaper. And I have a few of baby pictures I have taken of our granddaughter hanging around too!

My husband had a patch of skin taken off at the doctors last week...and the thought was it was cancer. Yesterday his nurse called to say it was cancer and wanted to know what we wanted to do next. Told her she had to get him in to the surgeon ASAP as I would be having back surgery the first week in May..do not have the exact date yet. So she said they would get him in to the specialist and call me today or tomorrow. So now to wait for that. No one was in a hurry to do this, but I need him to be healed before my surgery. LOL As I won't be driving for a while and will need help with a lot of things as I will not be able to do anything but stand up and walk or lay down. What a wonderful pair we make! lol....37 years of wedded bliss this June and want at least that many more again with this wonderful man. So keep him in your prayers my dear friends and family...because it will be God that has the final say in all this.





Here is a photo of the inside of my work with the pockets.






Hopefully we will be heading to our sons this weekend for a visit...Grand baby is now screeching at the top of her lungs..she is 7 months old now. She found her voice and she will be heard...ha ha!!! My son said she wants to be standing up now by the coffee table..so she rolls until she gets to it and then pulls herself up with a look of triumph and be big squeal from her to boot. We can't wait to see her..been a month since the last visit so it's time. And I need to stop at Unicel and get my cell phone replaced...it keeps shutting itself off all the time...pisses me off when I'm talking to someone and this happens...time to replace it.

Well, I have supper done and time to go watch the local evening news and knit on the Joat! NCIS is on this evening and I will be able to watch it and knit.

God Bless You All.

Take care all and..........

KNIT ON!!
