Not Nearly Busy Enough


So, many are asking what am I doing, cause I'm certainly not blogging. Well, it is not spinning of that you can be sure. Working, well yes, I have been working, not long hours, but working. Going to school? Yes, I am taking 2 classes but that is not over taxing. So, what is it that is taking up my time. I have been crocheting, and knitting. I don't have a picture of the knitted blanket, but the crochet ones I do. I have a granddaughter on the way and I need to make sure she is kept warm. Well, this first one won't keep her very warm, there are many holes in it. It is her summer blanket. I have already knitted her a blanket for winter and sent it before I got pics of it. So you ask yourself, what is she doing now? I am crocheting another blanket. It is a pattern that my grandmother crocheted for her grandchildren so I decided Alayna should have one too. It will be a nice warm blanket. The shoe is in the picture to show how big it is so far. It is a size 8.5 shoe. The first blanket is a shell stitch that will also be stitched for a shawl for TJ. The second blanket is a basket weave stitch. Very easy to do, but it can be confusing to explain.
So, that is about all I have done, no spinning, nothing fancy like that. I also have been visiting PA and am on my way to Indiana next week. After that Earthpig, BlueJinx, Fozzie and I are going to go to Gatlinburg, TN for a w/e. It has been, and continues to be, a busy summer for me this year. Usually I only have one vacation.
