3 Things

First thing, PLEASE check out this blog, Natural Suburbia. I fell in love with this blog a few weeks ago. The gal who writes it designs wonderful knitted animal patterns and also has an Etsy store, Mamma4earth. GREAT patterns. She is in the midst of a giveaway that ends on November 25th. Be sure to check it out.


Second thing, I HATE MAKING BOBBLES!!!!!!  I am trying to make the Santa in Susan B. Anderson's "itty bitty toys". I WAS loving him until I reached the top of his hat. A BOBBLE! I don't know why I have such trouble reading ANY bobble directions. I am going to have to head to YouTube and find some instructions. Drives me crazy.


I would have posted a photo of Santa, but, third thing, the battery in the camera died. I really can't complain. The camera was bought 7 years ago, used constantly, and this will be the first time we have had to replace the battery. It has outlived my dishwasher and refrigerator.


Everyone in the USA, have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day on Thursday.  Those who don't celebrate this holiday, just be thankful for what you have and those in your life.

Totally LOVE the blog you asked us to check out. Thanks!

And I am not a fan of bobbles either. I don't mind one in a pattern, but these aran sweaters with lots of bobbles-- YUCK! I know how to make them all right, but they are a pain in the you-know-where to do AND I think they look ugly in large numbers.

YouTube should make it easier find a technique that works for you.
Thanks for pointing out the new-to-me blog.
