A lot has happened since my last entry. I live in a new place & I moved back to my home town. I stopped my video podcast a while back. I took up tatting,tho i'm not to good at it yet. I am preparing for a craft fair that starts in May. On the health front I am about to starting taking shots for my diabetes.</div><div><br /></div><div>So as you see many things have changed. But I am ready to start blogging again!</div><div><br /></div><div>Right now I am in a knitting slump. I have had a basic bib on the needles for about 4 days. just don't want to work on it. ugh But I think tonight I will sit down,pop in a good movie and try to get it done.</div><div><br /></div><div>I jumped on the <a href="https://plus.google.com/107653850630288497047/posts?hl=en">G+</a> bandwagon when it came out. I am glad I did because I am part of a great knitting hangout group! We get together every day. We have "FO finishing weekends","CO weekends" and "PJ Sundays"! Everyone there is knitters/crocheters. If your on G+ add me as a friend and let me know your a knitter or crocheter and I would be happy to send you an invite to the hangout.</div><div><br /></div><div>Well that's all for now. I'm going to search the web and try to find a new tatting pattern to try. (if you know anything about tatting and know a good site for learners please let me know.i needle and shuttle tat...I prefer needle.)</div><div><br /></div><div>Have a great day!</div><div>Nacole</div></span></span></div>Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-78686968721321589672011-02-15T14:39:00.000-08:002011-02-15T18:48:21.772-08:00New Storage!Hi everyone!

Score!! I bought the stuff on the spot and stopped by the Dollar General store for a few items on our way home.</div><div></div><div>Once we was home the hubby drawed my idea on paper and we figured up placement of boards and such. </div><br /><div align="center">Then the men folk got to work.<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574052469091415282" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWfTVSSyYHiKxr_mrCRrJwS3o1G-nJIVuzGzvNcbdAXm_8tWyEafhbp2ewEQ4pW_bcg8cij7OOCFQ_FxNV-2FAENQq4yDDMxvtlWaYgj0qBMO-ZKQ__7JW0tJC0y8Ss8AsZEX-H-chBFg/s320/100_5287.JPG" /></div></div></div><br /><br /><br /><p align="center">Ofcourse they needed my help!</p><p align="center">hahaha<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574054484032144194" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAcNSQk4FhKKXq4PGVMWFVh1CAByrBKUlhj_tHdQfJSGlE-DI3b5TV9LMhUnWV-ZaOtKR5jlHr-DOKhpbvKlZ7Q6Tr0T2fBucSp1KdmXNbKqv6OVCqRrKxWHykPg-q19bPTsIH1naVSkQ/s320/100_5294.JPG" />The dogs agreed with me!<br /></p><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574052473080671346" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4apa7HogaHIGou2YQB0tfOJbSApKiDnbT9dlTp7sVVTrEB2ew-C38PO9DKLPRG6xQ2uc7iIG0j3Uwf5ibyOuUpP4sRjZcitUjKIlWdf3k0H2olmpnLKxyl3p7usRJ2TGfj3OYfdsAXPQ/s320/100_5292.JPG" /></p><br /><p></p><p>Once it was done they was more than happy to put it in my room for me to put my special items on!<br /></p><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574052480452288290" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiPipABRjulBUzgzkwQ-acImXzIxwxI49iRFFxcRY-9ZVHWWIwavRxG4q-Y7dxDxcIY78IqWzwcK3fpjY6BtXkinY_os_f29d5xaM18ye-5W9UUCZ-fNBEK1R2dKY6Ad2c2rNr3Me5WJY/s320/100_5300.JPG" /></p><p>Now I have my knitting/spinning odds and ends all in one place!

I was going to go to knit night at Knitwitz but I over slept. So to make up for it hubby treated me to TGIF Fridays and a movie.The only thing we could agree on was Tangled. I wasn't looking forward to seeing it....but in the end it was great! Also we was the only ones in there and could talk and yell at the movie! lol</p><p><br />But now we are back to the hotel and I feel the need to shower and lay down to un-swell my feet.

We made it to the state line at 9am this morning. Every year when I went on vacation with family we would stop here and take our picture at this sign. So of course I had to do it when we passed it!<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568899951877137250" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI0LYmxBocwWHaeK7vFtVqgMDBfrwzi1gY7RSjmP8zAfTv70ZlCzsuPCprt1T7BldFSNI68KxEBtk59JQMbdnWHj6EylggZRMWmLREyralQ0Calt-4rpDyJ7TX_wt7pQ4qb-UwwIfLHt0/s320/100_5128.JPG" />Once we got into our room in Orange Park and took a break we headed out to go to a yarn shop...of course! When we got to the long bridge I just had to take a picture. I love this bridge! BUT I put the window down to take a picture and my directions to the yarn store went right out the window! OMG Thank goodness I remembered that the Barnes and Nobles that we was also going to was only 1 exit away.So we went there and asked for directions. ;)<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568900674367530194" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLQimfozyyggKfmvjeJwRZe9um-Js6MnDjSvAVnQmBmJRMcMyz2h5tnJ3Ku_bl-V3FniXVt5CmmwMGfFj8oFn8x6K8NYJm-jcvFsMFXZ6aSCNRiU9ITyS2jnN26FtgBsio-xiJFO4Fw6o/s320/100_5147.JPG" />We made it to the yarn store!It wasn't super easy to spot but we got there none the less.I enjoyed talking to the store owner.Tho I didn't get her name.

Then cut an X at the end where you cut the hot dog in half. After that you just cook them as normal.

Where did it go?</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">I think I have gotten hooked on doll collecting.I purchased a Barbie (did you know they had ones where you can change there heads?! I didn't!!).I also got a Liv doll. (I had never heard of that one before..but then again I have no kids or cousins that liked dolls.)</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">I spent last week trying to design clothes and stuff for them...let's just say I didn't get to much made. lol I can't work out how to make clothes in my head for some reason.(not pictured is a hat and cowl)</span><br /><div align="center"><span style="color:#99ff99;">1 shawl,2 scarfs and a blanket.</span></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5563363572380220306" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqgWLWYEQ9UcfZ4K1E1vI764mkAgwXGFJyM9sIsxfLyZJHEl7DyVVhpj7pqrgv_moL82oNQqbkKWLpKCgGHjv12cwg5w4AhWxdDdEHdq9KpuN8Cvqto7eKD69WSndzsQdjTyKhmaZB2Ag/s320/100_5024.JPG" /><br /><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Besides this I haven't done anything else crafty.It's been a slow week.</span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Till today that is! I have cast on something big! I have made it before and enjoyed it.Tho I made a change to it last time that I didn't like.So this time I am NOT going to change the pattern at all! I want this one to be right!</span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Once I get some good work on it I will post it here for you all to see.</span></div><div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span></div><div align="left"></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">I have been reading more tho! I read Dead(ish). It was only 100 pages but it was cute! (it is free from bn.com for Nook download!) There is a 2nd book to it but I forget the name. (it is 99 cents on bn.com for the nook) This payday I am going to buy it for sure!</span></div><div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Right now I am reading Evermore. It is a good book also!I am 1/2 done with it already. Tomorrow I go to the library and check out Fat Vampire! Yes you read that right "FAT" vampire! I downloaded the sample to see if it was something I might like....it is...well as far as the sample would let me read that is. I hope the book will be good just like the sample. ;)</span></div><div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">I guess you see my Etsy shop isn't open. I have decided it's not worth it.The fees are to high and them taking more money every time you make a sale is crazy! I would be losing to much money. So I am working on cleaning my Artfire shop up and redoing it. I have TONS of stuff on sale in my <a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/Spinners_World">shop</a>! Check it out wont you?! ^.^</span></div><div align="left"><br /></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Well 5:30 am comes early.I think I will end this here and do some knitting before going to bed. Have a great night everyone.Pet your favorite wool for me and please leave a comment after the beep.....BEEEEEEP!</span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#99ff99;">Mrs.Lawrence</span></div>Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-47219417986183749302011-01-11T17:06:00.000-08:002011-01-11T17:30:33.297-08:00A day full of fun!<span style="color:#99ff99;">Today the hubby had light duty to do at Labor Finders. I wanted out of the house so I went with him.I dropped him off at work just before 8am and got his check to deposit at the bank.</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">Well the bank didn't open till 9 so I sat in the car and knitted till it opened.After that I went to the Library which is a block away. I had time to kill till 1pm so I had a friend and her daughter meet me there at 10.She is learning how to spin with her drop spindle and she needed some help.</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">I had a great time talking with her and helping her. In the end she was not drafting it thin enough and she was putting to much twist into it. But we got that all sorted out.I told her now I wanted to spin but didn't have any roving.I would have to buy some when I got home...she told me as a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">ty</span> for helping I could have one of her <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">batts</span> of fiber! O.o So now I got some pretty Pink,Gray and brown colored roving to play with this weekend! Keep an eye out for a Spinning post soon.</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">After almost 2 hours of chatting it up she had to go.So I played around on the net and knitted till almost 1. Then I got the hubby and grabbed a bit to eat. (we hadn't had anything since supper last night. oops)</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">Tomorrow I plan on going with him again and hanging out at the Library alone. I tend to get lots of knitting done there. ;) But after I get him I have to take him to his 1st Physical Therapy appointment. I hope this helps his back so he can go back to really working and take the corset off..he hates that thing! <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">lol</span></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">Yesterday the power bill came in and was almost $500! O.o The mil and us talked and we can't stay in the living room as much anymore since we are trying to heat a HUGE room with a little heater. So we started giving her $100 a month to go towards the power.But we have moved back to the bedroom.But we set up work areas so we can do our thing. ;) We have a gas heater in this room and its smaller so we should be good. </span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">On the crafting front I tried my hand at something new tonight. I made a small doll/barbie quilt! All on my own! I am <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">sooo</span> happy! I like the look of it and the MIL side she liked it to!</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">I am going to open my <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Etsy</span> store back up and put my sewn items in it. :) Tomorrow I will blog the link to it so you all can see it. I might get another one made today...but I'm not sure. Either way my shop will open tomorrow.</span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;">Well time for me to do more crafting! Please do not forget to leave me a comment here so I know your reading.

It has been spent sitting on the couch with my husband and watching Torchwood. I have also bee chatting it up on the Ravelry boards.</span>
<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">
<br />I am interested in getting a BJD. I saw one a few months ago in person and I really liked it. The only problem is these dolls are $150 and way up. Not in my price range.
<br />So I was talking on the ABJD thread on Ravelry and found out about a different line of dolls called Basaak.It is a knock off of the Blythe. Much less costly. Around $25. So I am saving up to get myself one.
<br />Only catch is I have to get the money from the sales in my Artfire shop to buy the doll. So I have a great deal going.
<br />
<br />Purchase anything from my <a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/Spinners_World">shop</a> and get FREE SHIPPING! (to the US and Canada only) You get this deal ONLY if you enter the code JANUARY in when you check out. :) </span>
<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">(deal ends Sunday 1/16/2011)
<br />
<br />Ok so enough advertising. ;)
<br />
<br />In the knitting world I am working on a mini blanket and tomorrow I will be casting on a sock. I made 1 sock some time ago and never got around to casting on its mate.Tho I am not sure I want to make its mate.I forget what needles size I used for the 1st sock.I don't want to make the other sock bigger or smaller than the 1st one. I guess I will sleep on it and see how I feel tomorrow.
<br />
<br />Well I am going to end it here. I am going to get back to blanket knitting and watching Torchwood with the hubby. Have a great day everyone.

Now this is how I can do it and keep track of it. </span><span style="color:#ff0000;">
<br /></span><span style="color:#ff0000;">
<br />I am #246 on the list to join!
<br />
<br />The Challenge has different levels. 5 Books isn't an option and I do not want to sign myself up for 6 books since I am also doing the 52in52 deal. So I vow to complete the "Curious" level..that is 3 books.
<br />
<br />Hey I know 3 books isn't a lot.But when in the past I am lucky to read 1 book a year...3 is a big deal. ;)
<br />
<br />I do not know what books I will read.I am reading a few books right now that I need to finish. I am NOT going to count those since they was started MONTH's ago.
<br />
<br />Keep checking back to see what book becomes #1 on my list!
<br />
<br />Have a great day and if you have ANY form of an E-book please consider joining us!
<br />Mrs.Lawrence

Where did the rest of the week go? How can it already be Saturday? I had plans on blogging sooner than this.I really did.</span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">Oh well. What matters is that I DO blog. So here I go.</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I have been a mad woman with crocheting. The big snowman that I made I gave to my MIL. She has it stilling on the kitchen table. :) I think she likes it.</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I crocheted a smaller snowman for my swap partner.(no pictures right now..I don't want to spoil the surprise.)</span><br /><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I made a sale in my <a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/Spinners_World">Artfire</a> shop. It was a dice bag. So I crocheted 2 more. They will be added to my shop tomorrow. Here is a sneak preview for just my readers.</span><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552062760412602290" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrfJFAf4YbO-6_808clu91DXErCLcH_h_05TLtL5IH6OEsS7sfgs3Bm-t1_AC4Om6jxhPu7UHfrpT-5udYh2uUDxuvgVrfEHn9sdNgAP0wXbbbQoIClgAfOP78PoaoLPSznZqJ76g3K1o/s320/100_4876.JPG" /><br /><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">I am working on more bags right now. I think the D&D/role playing folks are finding them at last. :) YAY</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Well time to get back to work on those bags. Have a great day everyone and if you have snow where you live make and eat some snow cream for me!</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Mrs.Lawrence</span></p>Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-33309720247881811702010-12-14T19:07:00.000-08:002010-12-14T19:30:50.119-08:00Flying Fingers<span style="color:#cc33cc;">My fingers have been flying this week! I love knitting and crocheting. Esp if it is fast to make items. lol Only problem I have is finding something to knit that I like that is free.</span><br /><br /><div><div><div><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dragonfly-socks">Dragonfly Socks</a></span></div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550741630458032450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYC4zRprn8TzuuKZBSSTNgeN3vNjGy4xz5HZe7trQHXiVATww5bIPYJzKoM8iJUWNv13R1bf6ANW1BuJjwKthFSrKkxgwhu3rTb5rz8G6nwITq2U3Z4B3UfzNvmDtT_wpJBuL7wQv-ZDQ/s320/100_4864.JPG" /></div></div><br /><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">The yarn is Knit One Crochet Too Ty-Dy Socks. I purchased it from Creative Yarns in Macon when I went to visit family a few months ago.I knit these on 2 circs at the same time. I did the ribbing cuff on 1,then done the ribbing cuff on the 2nd one and so forth. It was nice to have 2 done socks at the same time. It does not bother me that they do not match! I love them. I can't wait to wear them. The yarn was a joy to work with.</span></p><br /><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/amigurumi-snowman">Amigurumi Snowman</a></span><br /></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550743489616929922" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqr1lqCmsCeZ9q2erknDDLXCAoEWWnRX4fFqRHEnH_uDvXOLactPGfAsMuxlEmpnP1JhMWPJydNdBbrHMp1FpZI7yO1M5YZIz041_3Y1rS6i8ILmvAmrECDuXwuB6ZlUoOQRHrrNdPt0g/s320/100_4867.JPG" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5550744424248764482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_JUMoopJql53gG-NISFJmoDHopzLO1G5uMNBA65Bl2_S81T0EjuCr9ipA2TmgEYD0UFXYs1U1PkofrF_qDGPp4tKPSfd_q2YsqhDYVpBY7oPDhEDr-yYNKU5WyPXGVsmAG5EVud0dsdA/s320/100_4871.JPG" /></span></p></div><br /><p><span style="color:#993399;">This is for someone.But I can not say who.

I like it.<br /></span><div><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Tho we did sleep in this morning. That was because we stayed up till 6am. We wasn't sleepy! So I watched Netflix and the hubby played World of Warcraft. ;)</span></div><br /><div><span style="color:#cc33cc;"></span></div><div><span style="color:#330033;"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">So yesterday I finished the Nephew's hat. I really hope he likes it</span>.<br /></span></div><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5549901203999098226" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2UR7IwZTpzb5Bg6kClfYXWMroPtYYImW9PfvRu6OMRomqmRjA0sAST-GML_s8AEPtxfTzPkHC_k-jkP32ITZL4BxesIDS1yx1HeBDxKYMN7xqQHbX19rENhcXeL4zYeIU8TFjcHjlHsk/s320/100_4860.JPG" /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">It will look better on him than it does here. lol</span></div><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Since finishing the hat I can not find anything else that I would like to knit. *sigh* I do have a shawl,hood and socks going.But I want something different to do. But 3 hours of searching on Ravelry gave me nothing. (Free pattern search) So I am working on the socks. I think I am going to frog the hood and use the yarn for something else. I will never wear the thing and I have no one to gift it to.So it will just be a waste of yarn.</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">I am going to do a KAL with my friend Megan. We will both be knitting </span><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lacewing"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Lacewing</span></a><span style="color:#cc33cc;">. I don't think I have enough lace weight but I will see. If not mine will be knit in fingering weight and be a bit bigger.</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Which is good for me some all the other shawls I have knit have been to small for me. So it could be a blessing. ;)</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Well time to get back to rocking in my chair and sock knitting. I am almost done. Have a great day every one.</span></p><p><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Mrs.Lawrence</span></p>Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-82723890450273333312010-12-09T20:51:00.000-08:002010-12-09T21:05:10.814-08:00FO Thursday!<span style="color:#993399;">My friends I come to you with an Finished Object!</span><br /><div><span style="color:#993399;"><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/warmaroundyou---caldocollo">Warm Around You</a> (yarn is prettier in person...but its midnight almost so picture taking isn't great right now)</span></div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548912277979395218" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnxGcTJIW5aVTx7C7ee6r1VsCDngANQ2nJ_N4xbfVqVcXAefu6kZVdEnwwS900z8rzNCDsKjhyzKBzO1HTK1t4BCuvORwMRPutzI3mq1PHdVuI-goF0mVyLIqOa4jYglNJgLxEN0A6TMQ/s320/100_4853.JPG" /></div><br /><p><span style="color:#993399;">All it needs is to have its bottom blocked then 3 buttons added. I haven't picked out the buttons for it yet. But I have till Yule eve. This is a Yule gift for my MIL. She is always cold and wrapping things around her neck while at home. (we live in a 130+ year old house...its drafty.) I really hope she loves it!</span></p><p><span style="color:#993399;">This took all of 8 hours?Maybe! It was a very fast knit to say the least! Worsted yarn on size 9us needles.</span></p><p><span style="color:#993399;">Since I got that done so fast I decided to look for a hat to knit for my nephew.In my search I found <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/big-funky-hat">Big Funky Hat</a>. I am knitting it with Caron Simply Soft.(why yes!I do like this yarn!lol) I think this 17 y/o will like it. Hes a goof ball and likes odd looking things.

I took a bit longer to post this time. But I had a good reason! I have an infection and its making me all crazy. If I'm not very tired my legs are hurting. I can't win for losing.<br /><br /><br /><br />But I have tried to keep my mind off by crafting. Tho I haven't been good about taking pictures. There is still more stuff to take pics of. But here is a few.<br /><br /><div align="center">Face Scrubbies</div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523309536750878050" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1kRHY9OObc0-2aZKSC_jIoNwUbebeUhTFqyOF0PfehSVbKvgi6awIEUflCDHaN2r8v-Vpm9YrQBdA3pwrrAllcknAZYGAIXbgnEEz5m4d8V3FYDCvKPnI31gdLsHb3bWIrxHS-knAD0w/s320/100_4287.JPG" /> <p align="center">Bath/Kitchen Set </p><p align="center">(2 sets shown)</p><p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5523309960455955746" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglf93rIT5tN96XyGbwCkrEHR94-dYmQ3tiM9ws24PvBqGoeCNqVxRDhocg1pYtwEcoKvOn1jBbAt6zOwcBHWPIKRUY8_y6ND_hrWnW5tBhTeufp4srDofs7d2xzlJpNGu_2ax7UeQ5zG8/s320/100_4290.JPG" /></p><p>I plan on adding these to my shop this weekend.

While we was there we made an Altar to the God's and Goddesses'. It was nothing fancy but we built it with items from nature and didn't damage anything in the process!<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519887318477760434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhXBr98K0fflzRky1FJCicXd3apLKc-Pujy8vuaTURoR3YF52i9U2ITMow7wLGONKJGBkDL4_7ine5iCJNQF640eLobZl-55U23ZEi1T_u5aIBvUd25Fqgnkt6em2tB5JR17wA2cgFu5Aw/s320/100_4242.JPG" /><br />It was made of rocks from the lake edge,pine cones from the tree it was built at and some small clam shells that I found close to the water edge. It was made to point N,S,E & W. After building it we stood around it and held hands while saying a silent chat. It felt nice to get back in the swing of things!<br />I would like to add that Wed is free day at the park and that we left all things as seen in the picture! I didn't take anything.<br /><br />I have some other pictures from the park but will leave them to my <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrslawrenceknits/">Flicker</a> account. There was turtles,alligator's, lake,clouds,signs and well one sign you HAVE to see! It is funny! Its a handmade sign about trashing the roads. You will LOL. Trust me on this.<br />Why don't I post it here? Well you only have so much space here for free each month. I don't want to use it all up in a few entry's. That's why I made the flicker account.<br /><br />As for WIP day...I really don't have anything. Well I'm making teeth and need to work on my sock.But other than that I haven't touched anything since the Crocheted things from the other day. I tell her living in the country has its draw backs. Like feeling to laid back to do anything other than watch the cows,Green Peppers and peanuts grow in the fields around me. (there's 3 different fields! don't worry!)<br /><br />Sorry this is a simple post but I am going to cook a pizza real fast. I'm starving!<br />Have a good one!<br />Mrs.LawrenceNacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-21816107383709304392010-09-20T19:28:00.000-07:002010-09-20T19:46:45.129-07:00HalloweenHi all! I am back. I kept meaning to post but would fall asleep early or get caught up in something else. *sigh* But here I am at last.<br /><div></div><br /><div>I made a account on <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrslawrenceknits/">Flicker</a> for my pictures.This way I can share all my pictures without cluttering my blog. Oh I will still post a few pictures but not all of them. ^.^</div><br /><div></div><div>In crafting news...I finished something!</div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519189070445649090" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHinlljFDtE3BiTJneOsG9G1dh8QMLpC4XZYoz-G0_D3iLqNLxvmV2v0TfuuP_t5bpurg8KYbLWQ95_hFWgTtGLjqUydGdhSjBOJ_oeh_RTSes87MTxMJtKSw0EQNScMD5NT-S2YVTup0/s320/100_4224.JPG" /></div><br /><p>I crocheted these based on a pattern. They came out wonderful! I plan on making many more of these. I have an idea for another one. (not in any pattern)</p><p>I have also made a mini stocking..but I don't care for it. *sigh*</p><p>(will post a picture on my Flicker account soon)</p><p>I am VERY close to being done with my Citron shawl. I would be done by now but every time I knit on it I almost fall asleep. </p><p>I did finish reading a book tho. "Needles and Pearls" It was a good read. Only I had a hard time with the British terms. LOL Now I am listening to "One for the Money". I like listening to books. It means I have my hands free to do other things. </p><p>Well that's all for right now. I will make sure to post again soon. Take care!</p><p>Mrs.Lawrence</p>Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4216130652492306882.post-77861625830398853922010-09-12T21:26:00.000-07:002010-09-12T22:17:56.815-07:00The entry with pictures!This entry is for my friend April who insisted I show her some pictures from my new place. ;) I hope you all enjoy.<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"></div><div align="center">This is Janie!

I have made this blog so my family and friends (April,Nick,Jon,Hunter & Phillip) back home can see what I am up to! (waves)<br /><br />My name is Nicole.I am a wife,a granddaughter,daughter in law,niece,friend and cousin to many! I craft at home and sale my goods <a href="http://www.artfire.com/users/Spinners_World">online</a>. I love to knit and swim. If I could do the 2 at the same time life would be perfect!!<br /><br />Till now I have lived my whole life,30 years,in Dalton,Ga. But September 30th I moved to my husbands hometown. Sparks,Ga. It is 300+ miles south of my hometown.<br />My grandparents & cousin Katie was not happy with this at all. (I love you Nana,Papa & Katie!) But they each know this is for the best! I need to start my own life! The life I had before was not mine.<br /><br />In my old town it was Mountains all the time. Here it is farms and livestock!! I love it. The view is ever changing and I am learning what the different crops are.I am even finding my way around! I can go to Walmart,Hobby Lobby,Dollar Stores and many other places on my own. YAY<br /><br />Right now we live with hubby's parents. There house is 130+ years old.It's got 3 bedroom and only 1 bathroom. They have a pool also. I am not sure if I ever want to move out! I love old houses and if I was a super hero my weakness would be pools! I am such a fish! I am lucky that here they keep the pool open longer. So I still have a little while to swim.<br /><br />I only have 1 problem with living down here.....things are so laid back that I don't even want to craft! I just want to sit on the porch and watch the peanut field next door grow. *breath in & exhale*<br /><br />But I know I have to do SOME crafting to bring some money in! lol So I have to force myself to slave over the needles. (LOL If you know me you know I don't do ANYTHING that I don't want to do.) So here not only will you hear whats going on with my life..you will also see what crafting I am up to! I am sure you don't mind. ;)<br /><br />So Sit back and join me here a few times a week and let me tell you what its like living here in Sparks...the town that breaths in and out!<br /><br />Mrs.Lawrence<br /><br />side note to April...I took pics with my phone but I have no cord to get them onto my computer.So you will have to wait for me to go back out and take my cam. Sorry *hugs*Nacolehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06294261596494179702noreply@blogger.com0
