Searching for the impossible!!!

Okay, so I saw an awesome pattern on Ravelry not to long ago and que'd it so that I had the information on the pattern and such. Well, today I got curious as to how much the book is going to cost me. OMG!!! This book is extinct! No longer available, and the people who have it obviously know that they have the motherlode in their hands. The lowest price I found today $289 plus shipping. YIKES! And that's not an error! $289 flippin bucks. I like the pattern but not for that much!




So, if anyone has a copy and would like to loan it to me for a few, I'd love to get my hands on a copy of it for the St. Brigid pattern. Thanks!

Silly puppies

Okay, I know that this my knitting blog and yes, there are 2 FO's that I need to wash and block and then I promise to post the pics. PROMISE!!!

But for now, I just wanted to share with you just how funny my dogs are. So without anymore delay...here we go.






Aren't they a hoot? Zoey (black lab) is about 9 to 10 months old. She tries so had to be good, but that puppy in her just has to be bad sometimes. As for the other one, Buttercup, my bassett/sharpei mix. She's 8 years old and just as good as gold.

Hope you got a laugh out of them. They are hilarious.

C-ya! Dreem

Wow, time sure is speeding by...

I cannot believe it's already November. Seems like yesterday it was just spring. Geesh! Thanksgiving will be here in no time flat.

Not that I've said anything about it, but I picked up a part time job at one of my LYS's. I am working at Heavenly Creations! I work every Thursday and the 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month. I started last Thursday and think I'm gonna like it.

On the knitting front, I've been working on a baby dress. It was intended for my cousin who is pregnant. She has 2 little boys already so I was knitting in pink in hopes of a little girl. You know...baby girl knitting mojo? Well, it didin't work, sigh! So I'll finish it and keep it around until I find someone to give it to. Here are a few pics of it "in progress".


Here is a front shot. And then a back shot. So far so good...right?



And since Halloween snuck up on me and my girls. Here are their last minute costumes and our friends son who we went trick or treating with.



Enjoy! Dreem
