New WIP...

Here is one of the new WIP. I went to the library the other day and checked out Last Minute Knitted Gifts and yesterday I received my Rockin' Sock Club sock yarn in "Flower Power". So I decided to jump on the Chevron Scarf Band Wagon. I went Stash diving to see if I could find a yarn that would work well with "Flower Power". I came up with this...What do you think? Its Yarntini sock yarn in "Pure Fall", I won this skein in her Halloween contest last October. That's about all on the knitting front.
I also receive my Yarn Pirate Booty Club package yesterday too...here are some pictures. Enjoy and Happy Knitting!

Coming along...

Well My Penllyn sock is coming along. I am knitting this pattern for the Sock a Month Knitalong 4 as well as for my Yarn Pirate Booty Club. This is such a great knit. I am trying to get it done on "down" time but for some reason I start to fall asleep when I am knitting. I guess we can chalk that up to Cierra's crazy sleeping schedule. :) Here are pictures hope you all enjoy. I will update these again in the near future. I should be done with sock #1 within the next couple days.

Happy Knitting!

Hi all just wanted to stop by and show off our New FO. It's one of the three Best projects I could have ever made. Introducing Cierra Petal Goodwin. Born 01 Aug 2007 @ 10:20 am German Time. Weight 6lbs 4oz and she was 19 3/4 " long. We are home from the hospital and doing well. Got some knitting done in the hospital but haven't taken any pictures of that since Cierra has been here. My camera has been to busy taking pictures of her. Here are just a few. Enjoy.
