Take This Barbie!

Monday, September 12th, 2005

I had a house FULL this weekend. Love those little ones but it’s a little like surviving a tornado. Boy are they quick–alot like running backs. Low center of gravity, beefy little legs and bob and weave like prize fighters!

I finally got one on Barbie. I have a really cute belt and she doesn’t. I really like the Spike Stitch on Crochet Me. I had some Berroco Suede and did up this belt. The Spike Stitch is a firm stitch and combined with the Berroco, perfect for a belt. I think it will look great with skirts. Maybe one of those little tiered BoHo numbers.

Barbie- She Does Have it All!

Saturday, September 10th, 2005

I cannot believe how BUSY I have been. That job of mine really gets in the way of my never ending search for “discretionay” time. I am fond of eating and yarn so, alas, I’ll stop complaining and hit KnitPicks for some more yarn when I finish this post.

I finally uploaded the photos from the Fair.

Knit T

2005 Fair

Note the cute 4 year old in the knitted T. She has me crocheting Barbie clothes. Barbie has a poncho out of to-die-for Koigu (I do not). She has a slinky green halter trimmed in black with saucy little shorts to match (I do not) and she is apparently going to be getting a granny square afgan (you got it-I do not have one). I do have a very happy 4 year old granddaugher. Heavy Sigh I’ll get started on my Koigu Shawl someday……
