It's been a while since I last posted. New manager at work... too much stress...

Knitting has kind of taken a back seat for a bit, but I have finished one sleeve for Michael's sweater and have started the second.

Our knitting guild donates bears with knit outfits to a charity every year to give to kids and we were talking about them again recently and a couple of people wanted to see the bears I donated in 2005. (I didn't do any last year unfortunately) I took pictures of a couple of them.



I used the left over yarn from the hats I made that I posted earlier. I bought the eyelash yarn at The Quarter Stitch in the French Quarter in New Orleans when we were there for Thanksgiving in 2005. I checked to get a link to the store, but it's not active, so I wonder if it's still open since the hurricane.
I made the 'hat' on the diva bear by first crocheting a net that would fit over her head and ears and then crocheted the curls onto the net.





We're off to see the Atlanta Arts Festival in Piedmont Park. We tried to go to the preview on Friday, and it rained like crazy, so we're going back today. The weather is beautiful now!
