Sort of a Fast-Topic-Changing Friday, except I’m going in chronological order…
My mom sent me this photo of my niece, Molly Renee, in the Vestee I made for her. I love to see my handknits in action.
Yes, this child is adorable. Next…! |

Last weekend, The Knitting Nest hosted Franklin Habit on his 1000 Knitters pre-book book tour.
He is as charming and delightful as I imagined. Photo courtesy of Stephanie. |

And he left us a big present – a larger-than-life Dolores on a wall of store.
I think everyone agrees that Franklin is invited back to Austin any time he’d like to come. Photo courtesy of Stephanie. Next…! |

Then.
Then I got food poisoning. Oy. I was too sick to knit, or even watch tv. I wouldn’t wish salmonella on my worst enemy. Or a crocheter, even. (honk!) Next…! |

Once I started to feel better, I finished up this French Market Bag and felted it.
Felted bags are GREAT for grocery shopping, especially in warmer climates. The felted fabric really works to insulate your cold food on the trip home. Next…! |

I also knit up this pair of Fetching.
Both the French Market Bag and these mitts are samples for a “Countdown to Christmas” campaign we’re running at The Knitting Nest. Next…! |

Everyone is a little mad at me this morning. We were about half-way through our walk when it started absolutely pouring rain.
According to three Basenjis, the rain is my fault, and they are punishing me by ignoring me. (They’ll get over it once they get hungry.) Have a great weekend! |
