SuKnitWitty Surprises...Knits~Baby~Gloves~Thanks



Wow! How Time Flies When Your Having Fun As A Nana!
Seems like yesterday that I finished knitting the Baby Surprise Jacket.
I started it in March in a BSJ Class...I knew I was going to be a Nana in September.
And I knew the baby was a BOY!
SusanB-Knits made the Cap and Socks to match!


Surprise!!! It's Jackson in his Baby Surprise Jacket and Cap!
Perfect Fit! Perfect Timing!! Perfect Weather!!
Perfect Grandson!!!
If your baby is...Beautiful and Perfect, never cries or fusses, sleeps on schedule and burps on demand, an angel all the time, then you are the Nana...


...and the Papa!! We are having such a fun time with our Grandson Jackson!

It's been a busy November, and SuKnitWitty really has been Knitting!

And Re-Doing the Kitchen!

And Painting!

And Working in Fort Stockton!

And Knitting!

And Playing with Jackson!

And.....


The Really BIG NEWS!!!! Finished the PAIR of Fingerless Gloves!!! Yeeeesssss!
And.....


THREE....count them...THREE HeadBands! SuKnitWitty really does KNIT!
And.....


A Triangle Shawl on the Needles and a WorkInProgress!!!!

Plus...other WIP's....

The SOCK and it's 1/4 Knitted Mate!
The 3/4 Knitted Lacy Scarf!
The Interweave Sweater!
And OK OK OK....I started another pair of Fingerless Gloves!
I just couldn't help myself after finishing the first pair,
and SusanB gave me this YummyYarn!


And.....Life is Good!

Giving Thanks

For the hay and the corn and the wheat that is reaped,
For the labor well done, and the barns that are heaped,
For the sun and the dew and the sweet honeycomb,
For the rose and the song and the harvest brought home --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!

For the trade and the skill and the wealth in our land,
For the cunning and strength of the workingman's hand,
For the good that our artists and poets have taught,
For the friendship that hope and affection have brought --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!

For the homes that with purest affection are blest,
For the season of plenty and well-deserved rest,
For our country extending from sea unto sea;
The land that is known as the "Land of the Free" --
Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving!

Here's wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving!

A LittleHere..A LittleThere...Knitting


What's with these OtherLifeInterests taking time away from my Knitting?
HowDare my 'Quilt$$Patrons' take my cooler mornings...I could be sitting and knitting on the screened in porch.

HowDare my 'WWWednesdayTrio' force me to Read about Knitting when I should be DoingKnitting.
HowDare I buy another Knitting Book with Edgings I can't wait to Knit.

And, How DoubleDare InterWeave Knits put out the Fall Issue when it's still Summer, and while I'm still Knitting the Sweater from the Spring Issue.
I DareSay SuKnitWitty is easily Swayed by OtherInterests.
So, very quickly, I'll do a BookReport, List upcoming Reads, Edgings and InterWeave WannaMakes.

Book Report-Sins and Needles by Monica Ferris
A NeedleWork/KnitShop WhoDoneIt Mystery. Loved the Knitting parts..lots about Socks..(SSS not part of the mystery)..Inspired a few rows on my UFO Socks.
Especially liked the TexasGal Lucille. She was a GRIT with Good Texas Girl Manners (Yes, Sir) and a Bless His Heart'er when she made a statement about Uncle Stewart, "Bless His Heart, he's all hat and no cattle." Good read.
Thanks GinaP...I'll get to Mary Kruger's Knit Fast Die Young, Died In The Wool, and Maggie Sefont's Needled to Death and A Killer Stitch...I'll read a little here and there.


Speaking of A Little....
Look at These 'LittleThings' SusanB knitted to go with the BabySurpriseJacket.
SKW's Grand #4 is DueSoon!
He will be so Cute&Warm in these Knits.
Thanks SusanB...PrincessOfQuiteALot of Heart!

Okay...Back to Book Reports.
Knit Edgings.
Can't wait to do Scalloped Ruffle..pg 41
Leaf Braid...pg 67 and Lace Cable...pg 45

(Lace Cable is WayOverSKWSkills)...I know a Knit Teacher.

Aaaannnnnd...DoubleDare InterWeave Knits....Berry and Bramble Cardigan pg 46 and Every Way Wrap pg 48...and...well, that's it...for now. Back to Knitting...a little here and there.
