Status: offline 		Ohhhhh...when I am not working on the Ladybug (restarted that one...I fudged it up badly) I am playing with the emperor purple.  I was planning to make it onto a shawl, but the silky feel is telling me to make it into a baby blanket.  When Mom is gone, I will order one more bag of it so I can make it into a layette set.  Tough decision...new cottony bra or a bag of Bamboo...I know I need some Softee by Barnet, the white and blue marble for a special afghan, add the black super saver...I will be sit up fine.

Do you have Ace/Aco hardware in Texas? They have been selling big balls of Bernat for afghans and such, nice worsted weight, for a good price.

Status: offline 		No Ace here, but I am planning to raid the hardware store tomorrow to get some storage bins.

We are getting up early in the morning to get our shopping done since we are getting steamy here (read: HOTTER THAN HELL).  Mom did said that the hardware store is a TrueValue. So who knows...

catch up with me on Holly and Potty thread...

Status: offline 		I am not sure, our local Ace and Aco have started selling the most BIZARRE array of things, the big ACE is like a general store that you could leave a paycheck in there is such variety. The yarn is in a display box, I think in eight ounce skeins, in solid and ombres. I was all virtuous and RETURNED what I impulse-bought. They had the Holiday Homespuns from Lion Brand too, during the holiday times. No patterns or hooks, just the yarn.

Status: offline 		I went crazy at Walmart again.  I grab the last of the white Softee and about 6-9 Spearmint candy by Bernat  I am so weak when it comes to clearance yarns...

this is why I am to NEVER buy yarn when Herrschners has their yarn sale...

Speaking of which...I need to order more blue marble yarn from Bernat...I am downsizing from an N hook to a G hook and using Softee yarn instead of chunky...

Its hard adjusting my fingers to the range of yarns.

I know that Lilly is a part of Bernat.  Here is the URL for Bernat.

http://www.bernat.com/

Now...I got to get this ladybug figured out...and get my heart monitor on...

For Lily... http://www.sugarandcream.com/

I was finally able to read the fine print...I love electron microscopes...

Status: offline 		That is so cute...

I just placed an order with Herrschners.  My two aunts on Mom's side of the family (her sisters) are getting afghans done up by me.

I need caffeine bad...and cereal...

Lizard wants to be a "hooker" these days.  I plan to teach her and I got a booklet of Crochet Basics that she can deal with.  I can pick up the thing of "I learn to Crochet" from Walmart down in Austin (while shopping for school supplies...)

Now...to the cereal I will go...

Status: offline 		I am still working on the Ladybug afghan.  Hopefully I can get it done to put on the legs, eyes, spots, antenna and mouth today (the other stuff can wait, finish the big part is what I want to do).

I need to read over the penguin afghan, then get started on it.

Funny how it does here...each project has different yarns,especially in weights and makers.

Status: offline 		Did not get to work on the Ladybug today...had the nieces over, destroying the trailer.

Mom and baby bro just left me, leaving the truck in my hands.  It is too big for my taste to drive anyway...

Got a new book in today.  Mom wants me to do up a few afghans now.
