I made it through the first quarter...

of 2007 without buying any yarn. I have managed to keep knitting from my current stash. But I broke down last Friday, and bought a few balls. I couldn't help myself. Michael's had balls of Sugar 'n Cream cotton yarn on sale for .99! And it's normally $1.49 there. It was out of my control. I thought about it - saw it in the sale flyer from Sunday's paper - and refrained from buying it until Friday - I just couldn't take it any longer. I knew it was there and I had to buy it. I was good and just bought yarn for a few baby gifts I have coming up. I only bought 8 balls. I wanted more - but I was strong! YEAH me!

New Knitting

I finally have something other than a dishcloth finished! It's the Moss Grid hand towel from Mason Dixon knitting. I've worked on it for a LONG time, mostly because my hands would cramp on the smaller needles. It's made with a six-ply cotton (can't remember the name, something I found a Hobby Lobby) on size 5 Clover bamboo needles. I really prefer bamboo when working with cotton.

This one is still in progress - it's a Mason Dixon log cabin inspired throw. Made from Home Spun (all one color - just knitted log cabin style for some added dimension) and using size 11 Clover Bamboo circs.

That's about it for now - I have to work on a felted project for mom - hopefully for mother's day.
