Well Jamie wants me to quit my job because she never sees me anymore, work and more work has been keeping me very busy. And on the weekends I've been doing weekend stuff, which means I don't get down to the basement very often to update my blog.

I gave Alexis her poncho I crocheted for her. She looks so sweet, its white, with a little pink rose crochet button and pink and white fringe. Very girlie, but so is she!

While in Toronto, I treated myself to four skeins of baby alpaca wool from Romni. Drool! Its pretty cool, for the first time I've brought wool over to Jamie's and its actually been wool, not some sucky cheap acrylic. Its a beautiful red and so soft. I'm crocheting myself a poncho with it. The pattern is mainly treble crochet.

I'm also knitting stockinette stitch scarf combining Patons Allure in sapphire with a navy multi-hued un-named yarn. I knew the name but I've misplaced the label as of this post.

My basket made of nylotex turned out fairly well. The only downfall is that the sides don't stand up to Caleb sitting on it. Har, Har! But at least with the material I can easily pull it back into shape. It turned out fairly pretty, but knitting took way to long for the bottom so I switched the sides to double crochet.

Now I have to google London, Ontario, to see what kind of trouble I can get into when I go there this weekend, all by myself, no Len, no Caleb. Whaaa!! I'm hoping I'll have enough free time after the daily conference presentations to do some sightseeing and maybe even some shopping!
