Cindy's Rants and Raves

Ok, here I am at the finishing line, sitting at the baby shower, finishing the second bootie. But I got it done, as you see, my new cousin Andrea, the proud Mama is holding them. She's from Ecuador, and seems shy, but very sweet. They really seemed to like them. And here is a better, closeup of the bootie.











Isn't this just the cutest thing? LOL It's a baby Ugg, knitted of course. I am so excited, as I think this is perfect for Greg, well his baby. It's a size 6-9 mo. (I misread the instructions, and thought I was knitting the 3-6mo. size), but that's ok, they will fit him next winter. I am soooooo thrilled with this!




I finished the baby blanket for my Cousin Greg and his wife, and was very happy with it. The pattern self edges, and is so easy. Found it at Michael's Craft store web site. Used Scoobie Baby Yarn, and it's so soft. Woohoo, it's so much fun to finish a project...... wait til you see what else I made.........











We went to El Mirage last weekend, for a very relaxing time watching the Bonneville cars time trials. It is always a fun time, but hard to catch a pic of vehicles going 100-260 mph!! Nikki rode her quad, but Randy and I didn't, we always take them out there and never end up riding. El Mirage is a flat, dry lake. It really does look like water when you are approaching it!
