Whoa!

Yes, that's right, whoa! It's November 11!!! Where's November 1st? Gone! I remembered that we can't wait for halloween to come and it's already gone. I don't want January to arrive because the holidays will go faster then we will be in slow, bored month of January. 

On Halloween day, wyatt was a cowboy. Emma, of course, Anna from Frozen. Derek was a geek computer error 404: costume not found. I loved that idea for him. I was witch. Remember, I was sick on Halloween day. 

Emma beg me to buy her elsa the doll. It was supposed to be the Christmas gift but I don't want to argue with her because she saw it. Oh well. It's her fault that she saw it. I was like d'oh!

I wanted Derek to wear this shirt... I work so she can knit. It's perfect for us. 

I'm in knitting community and know the fabulous knitters. I saw this candy coffee crisp. It came from Canada. Only in Canada. Not in the USA . Bummer! So I ordered online at Amazon. It taste like crunch candy but add a favor of coffee. I also ordered matcha green tea kit kat candy from Japan. It's good. But too bad, it only in Japan, not in the USA. I'm thankful for Amazon. 

Ruffles Skirt

I am so satisfied with this project, even I hate the yarn- 100% acrylic. I love to see her shake her cute bum with shake ruffles. It is perfect fitting her. I made it in size 8 for her 6 size. She's big than size 6. I should have knit in ice blue as like Elsa from Frozen. Oh well. 

Last week, I was sick with common colds flu. Today, I start feel a lot better but still stuffed nose. 

Now, I'm knitting French Press Slippers for Christmas present. I'll have 5 pairs. One down, 4 to go. 

Hello November

Hello, pretty rust colors of November. And welcome back. 

I made my very first quilt blanket. It was little difficult sewing. It's not even perfect but good experience. Baby size blanket. I used my own sew machine to do top quilting. Just in straight line. I'm not fan of quilting. I'm dead hard knitter. 

PS I finished knitting Emma's ruffles skirt. I'll tell you about that when I am blogging next time. 

Another Day of Hike

We went to Mendon mountain to hike without the kids. It was so beautiful. Peace and quiet, away from stressful city. The leaves are falling, changing colors. The trail is covering up with the leaves. It was perfect weather. We, especially me, love to see the autumn around us. We will definitely go there again. The kids were with my parents for their uncle and aunt baby blessing. (Jayden and Kelli). We couldn't come down due to gas. Plus, Derek was forced to work. Coalville is pretty far. So my parents came and get the kids. It was so nice without the kids for a night. 

So Darling Cute

When I first saw this on my Instagram by my favorite knitter's daughter. She made this from Pinterest. So I decided to make it when I found it on my Pinterest. So I go ahead and did it. I had some of threads leftover. My frame was just sitting and wait for me in my basement. I checked the spray paint on my laundry shelves. I was relief when I found it. So I used it up to paint on my frame. I love the colour of baby blue. 

Isn't it darling?

I just followed it because there is no pattern. Ahem. 

Colors used: Orange, blue, gray, and yellow(outline). It took me only two days worked on. It was fun project. 

Autumn In FarmLand

We went to America West in Wellsville. It's popular for corn maze. We didn't go in a corn maze, because it was huge maze and we will be lost for hours. 

We went on and rode around the train. We love it. The kids love being inside the "jail box". The kids rode the little pony. Sweet little dwarf horses. They kids went to the huge slide. Emma love the bouncer house. It had little kids playground with mini maze. We had apple cider. 

We pet the goats. I'm little scared of them due to startled jump on you. 

I love the autumn everywhere. I love the colors of autumn. It was good day to feel welcome of autumn season. 

Cousins

While we were in St. George, their grandparents took the kids to the museum in Thanksgiving Point. Look like they had fun time together. 

Taylor is cute. She seemly had fun time. I don't know why Wyatt plugged his ears. But I think it silly boy. Hi peekaboo Emma. I love the rollers on all over on Emma's hair. 

I'm knitting a Soleado bag. It's almost done. I am using long cable for a magic loop needles. 

The Moment

Love it. 

One Project Done And New Project

I finished knitting a baby cardigan and a beret hat for Christmas gift of Derek's family. I love the owl buttons. It's easy and quick project. The yarn came from London, England. It's merino and silk blend. I'm hoping that they will love it. 

Next project is to make a Soleado bag for me. It won't be the same colors as you are seeing it from here. It's pink, purple, green, blue, green, and black. I wanted the same colors above but there weren't any available left so bummer. One thing from the bag is different that I knit in a normal square than knit into a chart. I knitted a striped colors square. 

Now I'm knitting slow down. I don't want to go fast. I'm done knitting for Christmas now. Now we need to go to shopping for Christmas gifts. Only two more to go. Then I will shopping for my kids. This time, they won't get the toys. They are always breaking the toys. So I will buy only blanket and clothes. They need to learn how to stop breaking their toys. It's frustrating. I already told everyone not to buy the toys for the kids. I told them that they are wasting their money. 

Too Many To Tell...

My finished scarves. Ready to go. Can't wait to wear it soon. 

My cousin love the knitted baby blanket that I gave it to them for their newly baby boy. Aaron said that I should knit something and sell it. That'll be too much of work. Maybe in someday. But I glad they love it. My mother told me that everyone was ohh's and ahh's at the baby shower party. I was at St. George. 

I have been working on my project. A wee Liesl cardigan by ysolda. She's very clever lady. I'm bad at math. I'm not designer. But I'm good at reading the pattern, even in the difficult project. I taught myself how to knit. I have never ask for help from designers and my local yarn shop. 

I ordered the new yarns from jimmy beans wool in Reno, Nevada. It only closer to my state than from the east states, Canada, and London; England. Yes, I order the yarns stuff from worldwide. Not just in the United States. This yarns will be cowl from Laura Nelkin, Knockout Knit that just released last month, September 2nd. I'm telling you that I want to knit everything. I started stop using the crochet. I'm more like knitting lover. I like how the stitches look better than crochet stitches. I don't like how the way crochet decease or increase in the stitches. To me, it's not looking professional. So I deleted the crochet patterns off my queue in Ravelry. I'll always have the thing of knit. They are better and the best.
