I made myself an early Christmas present! It's silk boucle, simple, and lovely. Happy Thanksgiving to me! :-) I purchased the silk at Knitting Nation in Nyack, NY. Love it, I just love it! 

I just bought this book at Sam's club and I am excited to try some of the ideas! Quite nifty, actually. My next non-Christmas project will be a rug made from shredded t-shirts. :-) Sounds cool!

The Warrior Princess

You are strong, courageous, and dynamic, a woman of
action. You have an iron will and a sharp
tongue. Indecisive, weak, or wishy-washy people
test your patience. You tend to grow bored
quickly and yearn for excitement.

You are most likely to: Lead your people to victory
against an army of orcs.

*Christmas update*

I have finished 2/5 Christmas projects and am starting #s 3 and 4. :-) I love this! It gives me an excuse to buy gorgeous yarn and to knit for those I love. I love knitting. Just love it! I wish I could show you, but I don't want to give the surprise away! I bought alot of the yarn at a great little shop in Nyack, NY when I was visiting my family. It's on Broadway across from Cafe San Juan and the Runcible Spoon. It's caled Knitting Nation. thanks for all your help ladies!

 
We went camping last september to Stone Mountain, NC. It was beautiful! we got to see more stars than I've ever even imagined, build fires and roast marshmallows. I even got to knit in the great outdoors and it was wonderful. There was another group at the campsite who brought all their quilting supplise and would sit and quilt all day outside their camper. how funny! 

 
Isn't this a cool picture? I was jumping up and down trying to take an action shot (remember those old toyota commercials?). We went to Stone Mountain, NC for a camping trip with the Gentrys. It was a great time.
