K Is for Knitting

Knitting_2 I'm knitting scarves for Christmas gifts. This is the first one. The Red Heart Kooky yarn is great. It has a soft, smooth feel to it, and it looks great when knitted up.

We finally got some rain yesterday afternoon--2 inches in the rain gauge! Thank you, Lord. We lost electricity for a couple of hours, but it was well worth the sacrifice.

Diane, the dog groomer, came just after the downpour. Sophie got a new do, and she looks so cute.

The weather change has brought about a major fibroflare, which I'm trying to work through this morning. Pain and stiffness. I spent most of yesterday on the couch. Today, I'm not going to do that. I'm going to church, then I'm going to the sewing room to at least finish my Sukey's Corners block, the first one for the Patchwork Party challenge. Block_2

The colors are so beautiful. I have trouble crocheting with those bumpy yarns, though. I tend to hook halfway into the threads and tangle things up. I guess I need to be more careful, LOL!
Thanks for visiting my blog so frequently. Yep, the food at mom's was great!

No, I've not seen the Kooky yarn; I'll have to check that out. Your scarf colors are great! I'm glad you mentioned it.

I guess I've not read long enough to realize about the fibromyalgia. I'm so sorry that you are in pain.

I love seeing all your quilt blocks/posts!

Kooky? What a great name for a yarn. It looks very pretty. Yay! for rain. I think we've had our wettest August in history. July browned everything up and August made it all green again. Hope you are feeling better today.

That was quite a storm that blew through! We love the rain though.
That is a fun yarn...it will make a neat scarf. Do you think it will ever be cold enough again to wear it?

Hi!
Don't you LOVE rain on a hot Southern Day....yes, the moisture is nice and the grass sure needs it....but isn't the instant sauna nice!
