My first blog

Well, I finally decided that it was time to set up a blog. You know, everyone is doing it now!


Well, a little about me. I am a 39 yr old gal from Texas who just learned how to knit about a year ago. I made a resolution in 2006 to find a new hobby and I chose to knit. And I am HOOKED... LOL.

I am a native Texan, born in Ft. Worth Texas! Yeeeeeehawwww!! I have a degree in History with a minor in so many things that it would just boggle your mind!! LOL!!! I am the oldest of the two children from my parental units. I have a wonderful husband of not 2 years, Mr. Sweet Thang. He's the joy of my life. He's the reason why I live!! We have a 9 yr old, four legged child that I lovingly call, Sir FartsAlot. Why that?? trust me. The name says it all!!!

I love to knit. Just learned how in 2006. It was a new years resolution to learn something new, and I have been doing it since. Now, granted, I have slacked a bit for about a year, but I have picked up my needles with a promise to finish what I have started. And I am determined to do so!.

As part of my life as a knitter, I am a member of a couple of groups that I am proud to be apart of on a daily basis. Yes, they are online, but how else would I have met them?? By far, my favorite group are the ladies of the LoneStar State Knitters Groups!! Yeah.. I am a Texas Gal. Can't ya tell?? Sweet Thang?? LOL. They are a phenominal group and I am so very proud to say that I am a member. I have only met just a few but I feel like a Sistah!! I am also active in the Knittinghelp.com forums and look forward to becoming more a part of them as well.

Well, right now, I have two works in progress (WIP's); The Berroco (sp) Panobo and the Oat Couture, Heritage Blanket. I am working on the blanket for my darling niece, MissM, but she just might be 18 before she receives it!!! LOL (she's going to be one in August).

Well, that's all I can write for now; 2 Maragrita's for now, and Sir FartsAlot snoring is making me one sleepy gal, so It's bedtime for now! So I am going to curl up next to Mr. Sweet Thang and dream of knitting patterns and yarn all ngiht long!

Fare the well from the Lone Star State!
