I do, I do...

...still exist, that is. I never have the intentions of staying away from this here blog for so long. I know you've heard that from me probably a gazillion times if not more from me, but it is true. I really don't like to stay away for that long, but life as it is has other things in store for me.

I guess it doesn't help that the kiddos are signed up for a million and one activities. Each time they ask to sign up for something else, I initially tell them no, but then end up changing my mind and letting them, which means that I have that much more on my plate. Though I am not complaining or anything like that. Afterall, this is what I signed up for and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Remember when I made these last year?

I finally put the pattern together and now have the pattern available for you.

The pattern is called Twist and Shout and is made from the toe up, but don't worry if toe-ups are not your style. The pattern can easily be adapted to be worked from the top down. The pattern includes the written stitch pattern as well as a chart. They're made on US 3/3.25, so they knit up pretty quickly.

If you are so inclined, give Twist and Shout a try. I think you'll like them.

Yummy!

So, so sorry. I didn't realize that it had been so long since my last post. I have been knitting, it's just I haven't been able to post pics in fear that someone who is on the receiving end would see. So soon I am hoping to have some FO's to show...but no promises.

There is something that I want to show.

I won this from Heather from the Fall Ravelry Running Challenge. The pic doesn't do the yarn justice. It is such a gorgeous deep red. It's so beautiful I almost want to eat it.

I still have at least two pairs of socks that I need to finish before the holidays....wish me luck.

Where my Stitches

I'm just a little excited and wanted to share.

Woohoo! I know, I'm a dork, but I know where my stitches at.

That was fast

Summer vacation that is. B went back to school yesterday and all I have to say is wow. I could have sworn that summer vacation just started. Though I guess when you are busy time seems to fly.

Our traditional first day of school pic.

Remember when I said that we did more well there was one more place to be exact.

Before we had kids Hubby and I would go casino-hopping now we go arcade-hopping...go figure.

We figured out that while Hubby was on vacation, we drove over eighteen-hundred miles, at least two months to achieve under normal circumstances.

Oh and I got my Ravelry invite. Let's just say that I have not had enough sleep for the last couple of nights because of it. It's that addicting.

And finally Cathy of Woman who says Knit tagged me for the Rockin' Girl Blogger! So now it's my turn. I am tagging Jean, Sachi, Cara, Scout, and Jill.
