I just finished my contest entry for "The Monkees" hat that Mike wore on the program (an apparently all the time in real life) . . . I know that it is not quite the same color as Mike's hat and it has a rolled edge and is made from yarn that is 65% cotton/35% acrylic (Lang Yarn-Coco and oh soooooo soft) instead of scratchy wool . . . but it is green and will look adorable on my granddaughter (and the cat loves it too)!
Look at what the mailman delivered yesterday . . . another wonderful surprise from my secret pal . . . aren't these the cutest slipper socks you have ever seen . . . I LOVE THEM . . . especially the little attached pom pom ladybugs at the back of each pair. . . of course they went on my feet as soon as I walked in my front door when I got home from work . . . they not only kept my little tooties warm while I was knitting last night . . . they kept me from slipping and sliding on the hardwood floors . . . the bottom of them have little heart shape grippers . . . THANK YOU SECRET PAL . . . YOU ARE GREAT!!!!!
BTW . . . the picture was taken with my new digital camera . . . its a Pentax 7.0 Optio M20 and has the one feature I cared about most . . . it's suppose of be jiggle-wiggle proof . . . so hopefully no more blurry pics . . . with the help of my daughter I have kind-of figured it out and with time I expect I will get better at taking pics of everything (especially of my granddaughter)!!
On the knitting scene . . . I have started another project . . . my SP9 hostess with the mostest, Heather, is having a little contest about knitting a green hat like the one Mike from the TV series "The Monkees" wore . . . the contest ends December 1st . . . sooooooo . . . I am going to sign off as hat knitting time is getting short . . . thank you again secret pal . . . your the best . . . ladybug kisses!!!!!
