What have I been up to?
Not too much. I've been so sick with a sinus infection I haven't been able to do much of anything. It started out small. I ignored it and it got real bad. By the time i finally went to the Dr's it was bad and i had to go thru 3 rounds of anti's. I'm still not too great now. I've been too ill or too loopy to do much. Plus I ended up with a concusion from being hit on the head with a hammer. I was trying to take it away from Lana and she swung and got me. So knitting hasn't really happend around here as I've had a hard time seeing straight and just felt icky in general.
I am in the middle of clue 5 of SOTS. 7 is out. I tried so hard to not get behind but with being loopy I haven't dared to knit on it as i know I would mess it up and it wasn't worth it to risk having to frog.

Halloween was fun. My Kiki ghost and my Lana super baby.
I have done some mindless knitting as of late. Nothing extrodinary but some.
I made Kiki a pair of mitten. This was some lamb's pride worsted I had stashed and I just made a basic mitten for her.
My Lil' Red Ridding Hood has 2 sleeves, they are sewn and attached and I have picked up all the stitches to start the hood but that's about all the further I've gotten.
I know Lana is modeling the hat but it is one I made for Kiki. This was the Spunky BFL in Tahiti, I think, that I spun and knit a hat up for her with. I'm so happy this is the first actual knit project from my spinning and if I do say so myself it looks pretty damn good. LOL. I really love how it almost stripped and the dark is mostly at the bottom and it got lighter towards the top. I took the last 2 stitches on the 3 needles and makde some short i-cord and just attached loops to the top of the hat. Right now it has a rolled edge but later on I did an attached i-cord edge to tie it all in and keep it from rolling.
See all the hand print turkey's in the background. We made 22 of them. One handprint from each kid and finger painted bodies. 22 of them. Why 22 you ask. Well these will be used a place cards for Thanksgiving dinner. Thats right for 22 people. My head hurts worse thinking about that. I am making dinner for 22 people. Everyone is pitching in yes. But I'm doing the turkey, stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, and two pies. for 22 people. Yup I'm nuts. I also bought a big bottle of SoCo to go with dinner. :-) Wish me luck.
I'm off to try to get the baby to sleep and try to finish off clue 5 so I can start six one day soon.
