Cabling Along

I learned a new stitch! And I added orange to take away the 80's pain of the teal (believe me it's more teal than the pictures appear).

Green! Woot!



I'm really proud of myself for figuring out how to manipulate individual colors in Gimp. When I took these pictures the green looked too turquoise so I did a little fixin'.

Knitting Frenzy

Light green knit with brown crocheted trim.


Ok, I just can't stop myself. I really can't...and more than likely there will be another knit post tomorrow, because I finished another project today (it just needs buttons). If you are getting bored with my knit wear please let me know! Eventually though, I'll start putting up stuff for sale on etsy and you won't have to see these projects here. I've labeled all my knitt/crochet posts now, so if you want to see the progression of my knitting career just click on knitting and it will give you all the posts. On my second ever knitting post, I exclaim my wonder that the ladies in my hometown think I should sell my knitting online (at the time I had only ever made 3 things).

My Honeymoon with Allie

Yay!!!! So after 6 months of living in Germany I'd gotten married, but I hadn't yet done any site seeing. So Allie came from Chicago and we were all over the place, and it was cold and it snowed (now it's supposed to be 50 the rest of the week now that she's gone...sad), but we had a great time. Come visit me!
hmmm...
I even attended a Lutheran Easter service in my town. Allie's a PK.
Our food's on fire!
Hot pretzel
Weeeee!
And she got a hand-knitted hat. So the offer stands...If you visit me, you are guaranteed to get blistered feet and something knitted. How can you resist?

....more pictures to come...

Getting my ass in gear

When I first started this blog (before I added the "in Deutschland" to the title), I tried to post a picture every day. Now I feel really like I've been terribly lazy. So since March is the month of my birth, I'm going to try and post every day...except one (yesterday).
Yay 2 photos....
Another boring crocheted flower.

A couple of days ago I got modge podge fever....and I glued this used wrapping paper to the cover of my visual journal (thanks sis for the paper!)

Slacker

Wow, two whole posts in all of February.
What exactly have I been up to? Well, I learned how to crochet little flowers.I made this baby hat for a friend.

Plus I knitted 3 other hats, but can't post those yet. I live such an exciting life. I'm also thinking about getting enough together to open my own shop on etsy.com. I've also mentioned this to Mick's Aunt and she has already started knitting away....
And I decided to get married.
That's about it.
