Card Stash
Cards are always nice to give to people. You can make funny cards, thankful cards and sincere cards. They are a way to show you care about other poeple in your life. With this New Year, there are many reasons to give cards, birhtdays, holidays, get well and so on. So to get my 2011 stash of cards going here are a few I have worked on in my spare time!!

Baby Sweater
I have not written in a while.... it is not quite all my fault, the internet is having problems. without internet means no blog post. We still don't have internet at home, I am writting from a free Wi-Fi area. I have been itching to get back to blogging these last few months.
Though I have not written, does not mean I have not been bust with making thing's this winter season. I was very busy before Christmas. Making cards, a tutu, a scrapbook, and ornaments. I was so busy with these things that I didn't even have time to take pictures of the finished projects, which I wish I were able to share with you. But it is a New Year to make new things!! I have many things in mind for birthday gifts, and even some Christmas gifts. But I will share more of that when I have them finished.
For today I do have something to share. I knitted a sweeter. It was originally for my niece but I realized with the amount of yarn I had, it would not fit her. Determined to use up this yarn, that has been sitting for some time, waiting to be used, I decided to finish the project.
This was a very simple pattern I found on Lion Brand Yarn website. It's made with the basic knit and purl stitches. I altered some of the pattern, for example the hood was to be all garter stitch, but I thought that it would be cute to broder the hood like the rest of the sweeter.
It didn't take me very long , if I added up ll the time. I started this project in October and only finished it a couple of weeks ago. I put it down to get the Christmas projects finished first :)
Now the question is "Who is this cute sweater going to be for?" I have been asking myself. Well at the moment I do not know. I think I will save it until someone I know has a baby girl of if I feel I can't give it up, I will save it for when, Lord willing, have a baby. Well that is all for now. I am hoping to post at least once a week. So be on the look out!!
