Hi gang-

Yes, good weekend. The weather was absolutely gorgeous.

I've been knitting a scarf for a friend. I hoped to finish today, but the arthritis prevented that. Almost done......but I don't know how to finish the end of the yarn. I'm hoping I'll figure that one out!

love,
susan

Dear Susan,

You do a little of everything:)--knit, make stepping stones, bake, etc., but of course--you are the MOM!!! We depend on you for everything since there isn't much in the non-basement....:D

I know you will figure it out how to finish the scarf.

Have a great MONDAY:eek:!!!!

M.O.M.= many opportune moments:D:D:D

Moms can do everything and then some.:):)

Moms can even make non basements FUN;););)

Where would we be without Moms?:confused::confused:

Up a creek!!!!!:eek::eek::eek:

have a great day!!!

Addy-
I'm sending you a paddle. We haven't had rain for awhile, so I thought it was dry down there. The hot tub however has a leak.....maybe it's worse than I thought!
We decided to shut it down for the winter this year. Shut down went okay, but start up had been headache after headache.

It is REALLY windy here today. I think I saw Wally flying by!!!

Have a great evening!!!

Love,
Sus

Ah yes.......I am just so great..........:(
I finished the scarf. I figured out how to end it. I guessed on what to do with the little tail of yarn.....at the beginning and the end. :D:)
It's 2:00AM . I was so pleased and proud. :D It's long, very long, but not too long. And I am seeing my friend tomorrow. It's PERFECT timing!!

So I held the scarf out to admire it......and I pulled gently here and there to even out stitches/gaps..........the next thing I knew, I was looking at a section, IN THE MIDDLE, where there seemed to be gaps.:eek::mad: Large gaps. I couldn't see anything wrong. I was trying to think how I could have missed that and how I could "fix it."

Then there it was. :( A little loop.:eek: A little loop that was a dropped stitch.:eek: :mad: If you pull it, it will go all the way down. :mad: I stopped after a few inches.

I have my knitting "class" tonight (later today.) I will show the expert and see if she can salvage this.

BUMMER

Bummer Sus, hope the teacher can fix it for you. I dont know anything about knitting but I am sure it will be okay. My mom used to knit and she watched some PBS show, I think, Knitting with Nancy :confused::confused:Anyway, the show always had solutions for Mom's knitting questions.

It looks cold and stormy this morning. I saw a headline yesterday claiming the U.S. saw the warmest March on record. Hope that doesnt mean the nice weather flew the coop:(:(:(

So, sounds like you are a night owl knitter!!!!!!:D:D

I hope you are getting some zzzzzz's now.

I should have called you. I have been up since 3:00:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Oh and I had it wrong, it was sewing with nancy not knitting with nancy:rolleyes::rolleyes: Another senior moment for Addy.

Where is my younger sister when I need her? I wil plead sleep deprevation:D:D:D:D:D:D

Hope the master knitter had some answers for you. I can imagine how upset you are. Sus, it will be okay. Your teacher will think of something.

hang in there,
love you,
addy

Hi Addy Scarlett.......................or is it Addy Mae?

I made all my appointments today and finished with the knitting session. I told Kim my tale of woe and that I had only gotten 2 hours of sleep because I was that upset over it. I kind of built this thing up before I showed her the scarf. I wanted her full attention.Well, after I finished talking, she said "Let's see it." One hour later, she had performed her magic and salvaged my disaster. She took a crochet needle and wrapped the loose yarn back into the sweater trying to preserve the original pattern. It's not perfect, but I would be surprised if many noticed it. It's certainly good enough to give as a gift and it would have been a crime just to toss it. I had simmered down to a very low simmer by the time I got there. I even offered one scenario where we could cut on piece of yarn on the top and the bottom of this area that got screwed up. I figured I could re knit the two middles and join them at the center.

So.....project done and I am not embarrassed to give it to my friend.:)

I need to run to bed now. It's after 11 and I am going to have a hot tub repairman knocking on my door @8AM.:(

Nighty-nite! Sleep tight!! Don't let the little sand crabs bite and be VERY QUIET if you hear deer or possums. Last one in bed is a rotten egg!!! :D
You too Marie!!!!

Perfect!!!!! Job well done:D:D:D:D:D

Now, no handyman hanky panky in the hot tub;);););)

We have had a heavy frost every night. Today it is to get warmer but then rain for five days!!!!!

If you see me floating past your house, make sure to wave!!!!!
