Watermelon (non-superwash) Sock Yarn

Click on images to enlarge

I managed to put up 2 skeins of Watermelon sock yarn on Etsy icandyarn this evening. Both sold right away. What I don't understand is why one hank of yarn that I posted about 3 months ago is still for sale.
It's absolutely lovely and is the same price as the Watermelon (non-superwash). Oh well....I'll use it for me if it doesn't sell!!Weeee.
I have been knitting on my friends kilt hose and it is coming along real well. I would like to change the cables to a more complex pattern but it's way too late. Time for a break from the hose thou... in need of a little knitting for me kinda thing...

England Trip




Well we got back home last night at 1:30 am. Our flights were all on time and our seat assignments were not messed with. Had a hard time keeping my eyes open for the drive home (about 200 miles) ...yiks i was driving. I really don't know why we don't do the frequent flyer miles we would have received over 10,000 miles each. hmmmm. Anyway, it's good to be home. The kitties greeted us at the door with lots of meows, then followed by running wildly about the house.

Look what I got!


How much fun is this?....an award!! Weeee.



Thank you Kat from Creative Pop-Offs.

Look out England...We're Here

Well our flights to England were not very nice. The first flight was cancelled and all the connecting flights had to be rescheduled. All our seat assignments were all messed up...Not very nice!! So basicly our 22 hour trip took 30 hours and lots of our toiletries were taken off us. I wish when a person books an international flight they would give a print out of what a person can and cannot take from one airport to the next. apparently all your gels and liquids cannot be more then 3.5 ounces in one country and have to be in lipzock bags and you cannot have more then 100 grams in each ziplock bag in another country...whats up with that....like im going to flush somebody's eyes out with contact lens solution..lol. or my 4 ounce instead 3.5 ounce toothpaste will kill bad breath. I should have squeezed out half of it in the bin...lol. But of course one has to be kind or they may not board the plane...don't want to cause a stink.
It's early morning (8am) here at the in-laws. We have been up for 4 hours and they are still in bed.lol. The first order of the day is to shower the stink off the traveling bodies. Then tea and crumpets with spreadable prawn cheese...yummy!! Later Andrew and I will walk into town and see if there has been any changes in the last 2 years. Me thinks we need to do a 'pub crawl' this evening like the locals...lolol. I'm looking forward to a pint of cider. What I should do is make a 'to do' list, but I don't want to waste my precious holiday time...i'm supprised i'm posting to my blog. I might post some photos later if I can find an SD card slot on this puter.. I don't think it has one... how silly is that?
Look out England to be continued....
