Rhinebeck!!!

Wheee I'm going to Rhinebeck tomorrow!! =D
I'm soooo excited but in the morning I have to take the dreaded PSAT's =(
I'll get through it thinking about all the neat stuff I'll see a couple of hours after! Well 3 hours away.. ample knitting time =)
I think I'll be wearing this if it's not too hot (I would have my hair down)

Projects

I have decided to post what I'm working on even though I can't take pictures of them. I'm making a purse for my cousin for christmas..actually everything I'm knitting from now on is going to be a gift for someone I think. I think I'll make myself a list so I know what I should do after I finished something.
Mom- socks (they are probably going to be my first pair) probably going to make them with Knitpicks Dancing
Dad- love to make him a hat... maybe put FB on it (for Fat Boy, one of his motorcycles)
Tristan- mittens. I wonder if I can make powerranger mittens...he just has to make up his mind about which color he wants to be!
Lilly- getting a pink purse made out of Vanna's choice. I'm going to line it, make a few flowers to put on it and maybe a cell phone holder... in the process of knitting it.
Sarah- Harry Potter bookmark scarf and a skully keychain or wrist band.
Rita- slippers size?
Joan- slippers maybe...she has big feet like me although her's are a 10..maybe fingerless gloves or a scarf since peoplelike those.
Susen- slippers...I think she's an 8. These gotta be pink, she adores that color.
Cathy- NOT TELLING.
Elizabeth- kiwi bird
Grandma- potholders/dishcloths. Make them thick.
Kelly- fun fur scarf =D or black dog
Tiffany- fingerless mitts or gloves. Hmm what color...
Kayla- Something green.
and other people I forgot to name and will just make this list longer.... eeek

Haven't updated in awhile mainly because I can't get my hands on a camara =/
Anyway, I've been making fingerless gloves like crazy. This patten is very addicting and my friends seem to love it! Once I showed them the burgundy pair I made myself, they all wanted one! I made a blue pair, grey, navy and now a purple pair. I've memorized the pattern and can knit them up quite quick but the next time I do a wrist warmer/fingerless glove pattern, it's going to be for myself! *giggle*

Pretty things

Yay! I made this bag.

I used homespun and had plenty of yarn left over. It has a zipper and a liner =D
I'm very proud of it. I used a cabled headband pattern for the strap using size six needles-it's very secure. I can't seem to find the site where I got the pattern from, I will edit this post if I find it.
I also made my own needles, I stained them and hotglued little maple leaves on the ends. They're size 10 1/2.

Long time no post

Okay, so it's only been a few days since I last posted, but I thought I give an update. I should have some more pictures of my FO's tomorrow. It's been so hot here I've just been reading all day. I'm working on a pair of slippers for my mom's birthday. It's on august 8...I want to make her a few things because she's so great :D I think I'm going to make her a little bunny too..or a kitty. Whatever I chose, she'll love it because she's nice like that *loves*
