PS...Just in case you are wondering about how I'm getting in the Texas Connection with Knitting...

....Here's the Texas Longhorn Burnt Orange Stocking Hats I made last year for all the UT Fans in my Family!  Notice I said LAST year....when Texas was #1.

This year...UT and Burnt Orange Yarn has not been at the TOP of my Count Down to Christmas Knitting List.  In fact, that's about all Burnt Orange and UT has been doing ....Counting DOWN in the Ratings.  Oh Well, there's always the next yarn year!

  3. You can TOTALLY knit. Me, the only knitting I do is being a knit wit. I would love to learn someday. I bet it is really relaxing.

  4. oh what fun. I love your room. I love the Texas Longhorns because I've seen them in the Rose Bowl Parade. I have a cup with USC and TEXAS on it. I love to craft. I start one thing and I'm off to another. Your post is great. I so enjoyed reading the captions.

  12. Oh no, you are definitely a knitter, lovely things you've made! I'm a wanna be knitter ... with only dish cloths and a half-finished scarf to show for the years of knitting attempts ;).

    Blessings,

    Catherine :)

  13. That's how I am with crocheting. For some reason all I'm able to get done are dishcloths...lol..But that's also the same about my quilting, scrap booking and crafting too.

  21. Your "K" post made me smile! I took up crocheting 2 years ago and haven't finished a darn thing.... but I do have 3 large bins full of yarn for when I do decide to actually do anything! Thanks for stopping by yesterday at My Whimsical Way... and you are right about Texans being friendly! I was in Dallas earlier this week and everyone was super!

  23. You are soooo not a wannabe. You are the real deal. All that beautiful handwork proves it.

    What a sweet stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday's letter "K"!

    I am soooo willing to stay in your studio when you have an opening!

    Thank you for linking.

  25. Oh my! You have made some lovely things! You are much more of a knitter than me. I can knit it if it's say, a scarf. That's about it! Your collection of supplies looks luscious.
