I'm in the wrong line of work...

Okay knitters, look at this:

I didn't knit that. It's a golf club cover. It's cheap yarn, ribbed all the way up, increased for the head of the club and then a huge pom-pom. My dad is a golfing fanatic. He is retired and travels around golfing with friends. A few of them have these and they were knit by some woman who is very smart. Guess what my father paid for three of these? No really, guess. $105.00. Seriously. Forget the fact that his daughter is a knitter...$105?!?! I told him to never ever buy one of those again. I will make them for every club he owns. $105?!?!?

Okay, getting on to my own knitting... Remember this?

It's Lizard Ridge. It's halfway finished and I've been working on it again. Love this pattern.

The Duckies are coming along. I only knit them at school and since I only work part-time it's slow going. I should be to the heel flap on the second sock soon.

Back in the saddle

Of Lizard Ridge, that is. It sat for a long time. Not because I didn't like it. I've always loved the look of this and the actual process of knitting it. But it's big. I decided to take a break from it and work on lots of other things. But it's back. My fourth graders at school like watching the colors change and I'm motivated to knock it out. School is going to be out for summer soon and I am vowing to have this done before the next year starts. You heard it here first!

This is the third strip (out of four) and I'm finishing up the second ball. Love these colors!
