Knife

It's not the usual kind of knife Andreas buys, but I did need a new kitchen cleaver.  We saw this at the ren fair we went to on May Day, liked it, and bought it.

New Kit

More stash from my Zweigart factory outlet visit - a kit and a hoop.  Not sure I am going to like the kit.  It's got a preprinted background.

Stitch Maynia #4 - Awesome Possum

This is a bit different from most of Tracy's work.  It's not got a single mandala in it.  Received the kit through Stitchy Box and now getting around to starting it.

Stitch Maynia #3 - Owl

A lot of people got this on sale at Hobby Lobby in the last month or so.  Not me.  There are no Hobby Lobbys in Kosovo.  Mine came from 123Stitch.  It's for Andreas; this year's theme seems to be owls and other things for Andreas.

Went To Zweigart

I went to Zweigart last weekend!  The factory outlet is huge.  It happens to also be in the suburb of Stuttgart that we were visiting friends in anyway.  We went on Saturday morning, and they were even having a sale.  Part of what I bought is this three pieces of fabric.  The brown one will have a Chatelaine start on it.  The other two, I'm not sure about.  All were significantly lower in price than in retail stores in the States.

Stitch Maynia #2 - Clockwork Bird


This is such a neat design and I was eager to start it.  I have another in the clockwork series, too.  Hopefully I will get more time to stitch soon.

Another Afghan

This is a Lion brand pattern that I used Lion Brand Mandala yarn for.  It's in a color picked out by the mom, and it's ready before the baby's due.  Now I have at least two more to make very soon.
