Just for future reference

I found this and didn't want to lose it. I'm embedding it here so I won't have to look for it again.

Laziness, thy name is Lisa.

Well, how about that?

Susan, I absolutely love what you're doing! The blanket looks fantastic and I'm very proud of you for learning to purl. It's really not that hard and it opens up whole new worlds to you.

Have you read any of Debbie Macomber's "Good Yarn" books? I've finished the four that are published already and another one is coming out soon. It's inspired me to keep learning and stretching to do more. I even bought the yarn to do a triangular prayer shawl. I'm going to use Lion Brand Homespun in a beautiful, deep purple color called "Gothic." I saw a pattern in one of the Prayer Shawl books that I'm going to use, but I'm trying to find a free one online instead of paying for the book. Is that bad? I hope not.

I'm excited about your new niece. How did they wind up living in Peru?

Ooh, ooh, ooh! I am also now the proud owner of patterns for pink ribbon hats for breast cancer awareness! I'll have to learn how to use a cable needle and actually take stitches off the needle for a bit. The thought scares me to death, but I really want to make the hat.

Thanks so much for sharing the pictures. I love seeing what you're doing. I really, really like that blanket. What kind of yarn did you use?

This is my first blanket weave baby hat that I completed to match the baby blanket for my little baby niece to be born in the next week or two.... The model is my sister and my baby doll. She is about 60 years old. She named her Betty, I named her Connie... so she has become Connie Betty! The dress she is wearing is mine! ;-) Now who said she couldn't pull it off as a model at her age! LOL!

This is the Blanket weave baby hat to match the blanket I just made for my soon to be born great baby niece. Connie Betty is a little bigger than the hat is intended but she makes a great model! LOL!

First Baby Blanket More

My little new baby great niece is set to be born next week in Peru. Her name will be Karis. I was excited about how it turned out! It really turned out well despite my hesitancy to learn to PURL! LOL!
