LOOK WHAT ARRIVED IN THE MAIL !!!!



This afternoon I was sitting at the dining room table, knitting, while 3 babies were sleeping and I was waiting for 2 granddaughters to arrive home from kindergarten. All of a sudden, the chorus of 4 dogs barking, let me know the mail was here. I went to the door and found not only junk mail, but a package. Couldn't be for me. I haven't ordered anything in a year. BUT WAIT! My dear friend Lisa (aka Sasa 6 on ravelry) told me last week that something should be arriving in the mail. What could it be? Last month she surprised me with 2 skeins of beautiful yarn. I opened the package and couldn't believe my eyes. It was a copy of "itty bitty hats". "ITTY BITTY HATS" !!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT ????? I am beyond thrilled. Lisa, THANK YOU, Thank You, thank you.

I now have all 3 "itty bitty" books, by Susan B. Anderson. YIPPEE!!!!

Project #4, The New Sock Monkey, is so fun and easy. I am really enjoying making this little guy. I can't wait until I stitch his face. That will make all the difference for me. It is always in the expression.

Update on Project #3. Susan Anderson was kind enough to check out my photo of the Loopy Stitch square. She immediately noticed I had crocheted eleven loopy rows instead of the SIX that Susan crocheted. I have decided to leave my first Loopy Stitch square as is. However, the second one will be done correct, I hope.

Thank you Susan for all your input.
Thank you Lisa for my "itty bitty hats" book.
