Book 3 Project Done

Finished the Book 3 project and wore it to work yesterday! This is turning into a fun idea....actually doing projects I would not have done if not for this adventure! I would never buy ribbon yarn these days, but lo and behold, I really like this little tee-shirt! I do have to admit I did not enjoy knitting it though. This ribbon twisted while knitting so badly. I think I spent as much time un-twisting as I did knitting...lol!
The pic is awful.....but it looks cute on...promise!

I started another pair of the French Press Felted slippers in the mean-time. I gave the blue ones to Amanda and I want a pair for me! This pair is out of black Lamb's Pride I had in the stash.

Ok....on to Book 4! Next book in line on the shelf was "simple knits for little cherubs" by Erika Knight. Again....bought the book and the yarn about 4 years ago at the Knitting Nook on a trip to Texas. Stuff I would never buy now! The yarn is Fur Real by SWTC. The pattern only goes up to size 5......lol....needless to say Miss Savy is much bigger than that now so I will have to do some size tweaking!

Still hanging in there at the new job. Can't say I really like it....main thought is "what was I thinking!"..lol. Oh, well, I plan to keep hanging in so we can beef up retirement and get a few big projects done around the house with the fruits of my labor!

Had a wonderful Mother's Day. Lots of cards, texts and an afternoon with family. We sort of have a tradition of picking the Mulberries off the tree in the back and making a pie/cobbler but they weren't ripe yet this year. We have a bumper crop this year so I'm sure we will be busy picking the next couple of weekends! I think we are going to try making some jam/preserves out of them this year....that ought to be interesting! Haven't done that since my girls were little!

We are heading out for a short trip in the motorhome this weekend. Going up to Jenks to cheer on Brandon and Patrick. They are running in a marathon up there. First time for both of them so it should be fun!

Not a really exciting life....but I love it and wouldn't change a thing! Other people can enjoy the drama.....I had enough of that in my previous life...lol!

No stash enhancement pics yet again. Part of the reason for the "knitting adventure" I'm doing....trying to be good and not spend money! DH and I sort of made a pact when we got the new RV to cut back on our hobby expenditures to help defray the cost of having the RV. He switched his aquarium from a salt water tank to a fresh water one and I'm trying to do my part by not shopping for yarn. Doing much better than I thought I could...lol! Yarn is an addiction, you know! Might be hard this weekend though.....Loops in Tulsa is right around the corner from Jenks.....hmmmm.
