Doctor bag phase II

The bag is at phase two....knitting finished and the seams completed....front view
side view......along with the pattern instructions. I am working on the 3 needle bind off to give more stabitlity. Will felt it this week at the beach.... awesome if I must pat myself on the back!

Next on needles...

This is my favorite summer bag, and I always receive many compliments on the color......so I figured I could knit a bag

Here is the pattern, Felted Doctors Bag by Pipps Purses designed by Jennifer Pace. My yarn is balled and ready for action!
I had some Math to figure out....goodness my brain hurt for a while. Anyway, I figured how to make the stripes and evenly work the pattern.....this is stage one, I am finished with the front of the bag, and working the pattern in less width rows for the bottom. My hands are tired, but the colors are 2-5 rows, so it goes fast..... this will be awesome when finished and I hope to have it monogramed in chocolate brown like my fabric bag..... cool!!

Clubs and Bags

#3 wood cute curly top

Okay, for anyone who may read my blog, I have been side tracked on making golf club covers....this is what I got from my stash of odd pieces of wool. Using dpn #7 , knitting in the round , I found a basic pattern and modified a color change....this is what I came up with. Maybe my game will improve also!!!

needles vs. clubs

This past weekend I put down my needles and picked up my clubs and played 18 holes....(i'm the one in the middle)......my game was rusty and decided that I need new funky club covers to improve my game......ha ha.. I have to incorporate my knitting into my golf game.....

I made a sample florecent orange club cover, but I don't like it that much....will dig into the stash and see what kind of funky covers I can make.

The dogwoods were in full bloom and absolutely beautiful......Spring/summer is here ;-)

Ann Norling golf club covers....the challenge of the week

The top photo is the begining of the club cover.....k&p, decreased and increased to begin the cables.....

Second photo is the first couple of rows that show the cables emerging from this LOVELY shade of ORANGE...this cover will not be missed or lost on the golf course.....especially if you are a Tennessee Volunteer fan....I don't think I am (yet) since I am a newbie to Nashville......

Another finished project

There is always a puzzle in progress on our vacations.....I kinda hogged this one....loved it cuz it was VERY challenging, 550 pieces with lots of shading

Accomplished Tasks on vacation

FINISHED....My Tote ready to felt....and with a pocket for the inside
NO, not muddy clothes, this is the wool felting(in a pillow case) in the machine
ahaaahhhhhh, finished and soaking up the North Carolina sun.... ;-)
A beautiful ending to a wonderful knitting day....


Now...if we can only figure out how to move the house on the left so we have a straight shot of the sunsets....it is better on the beach, but I was too lazy to walk down there.
I am 3/4 of the way finished with the baby blanket, and forgot to bring the instructions to do the toe on the socks I am working on....next blog! Happy Spring
