Wrap and Turn

I don't know about you but I have the hardest time knitting a wrap and turned stitch without having it come out less than desirable. (you know holes, twisted and funny looking!)

I found this video very helpful! The concealing part is near the end.

Twas mere days after Christmas and all through Judi's house...

Sisters, Sisters
Judi thank you for hosting tonight. It was fun! Thank Lynn too for opening your house to us. It was nice meeting Pamela. :) The fireman suit you made for your grandson is so stinkin' cute!!!! I'm sure you'll have the scarf finished before you know it!

Dawnelle you certainly are the queen of socks!!!! I'm glad you finished the Christmas socks. Phew that's out of the way. The 3 x 1 rib you'll be doing in your sleep before you know it! :) It was nice to meet Faith. I say we buy her her own Sudoku game. She caught on to that so quickly!!!

Ingrid, Pam and Kathleen we missed you and hope you were doing something fun.

Judi and I are going to serenade Ingrid one of these days with our duo of sisters :) Ingrid, we know how you love to be sung to LOL!

Sisters, sisters
There were never such devoted sisters,
Never had to have a chaperone, No sir,
I'm here to keep my eye on her
Caring, sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress, and I stayed home
All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain and sun
Two different faces, but in tight places
We think and we act as one
Those who have seen us *
Know that not a thing could come between us
Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can
Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister
And Lord help the sister, who comes between me and my man

Cream cheese and pimiento dip

Here's Pam's recipe from last week. Thanks for sharing it Pam it was VERY good.

1 Tbsp instant minced onion
2 Tbsp water
2 chicken bouillon cubes (or 2 tsp instant chicken granules)
1 8 oz cream cheese
1/4 tsp dried dill
1 Tbsp chopped pimiento

Combine onion with water and crushed bouillon cubes and let stand a few minutes. Soften cheese and gradually add onion mixture. Add dill and pimiento and mix well.

Can Anyone Guess??

Some people are so creative!!!

Last night's recap

Pam thank you for hosting last night. Your house was so warm and cozy. I love that fireplace :) I'm glad you decided to change the scarf you are making. I think it will be beautiful!!

Dawn I'm glad you are ready to get that sleeve underway. It will be done before you know it! I am really looking forward to seeing the final project.

How are you coming along Kathleen with the things you were working on last night? Did you stay up to work on them.

I went home and made the thumb for the mitten and wove in all the ends. I even cast on for the next one. I am so tired this morning!

take care,
Dawn
