My mom liked Alan's cover so much that she wanted a cover for her new Tracfone LG800G smart prepaid phone (cost $50)with a large touch screen. Her last touch screen phone fell on the asphalt as she got out the car and the screen smashed. Maybe it was a good thing because now using Tracfone's prepaid plans she only pays $7/month for service.<br />I now have a lot of orders for ipad, nook and cell phone covers as gifts for family and friends, it's nice to make something that is appreciated and admired by others and the great thing is that it doesn't cost much.Charmainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06580136753387033311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758419071318872390.post-58954953468129230792010-09-01T23:31:50.756-07:002010-09-01T23:31:50.756-07:00Your finished blanket looks amazing, I just love i...Your finished blanket looks amazing, I just love it and good on you for mastering the ripple!

I only know one way, and that's where you kind of start to knit, but then instead of pulling the stitch off of the needle, slide the stitch to the needle in your left hand. I know - doesn't make sense. But get started on that shawl now so it'll be done by her Birthday. AND be sure to show it to us on your blog!<br /><br />Hi Linda,<br />Thanks, and you enjoy your week too. <br /><br />Peggy,<br />I asked Dave. He said, "naaaah, he's going to make a rope swing someday but use wood for the bench. We'll see! Thanks for asking though, I appreciate it. <br /><br />Queen,<br /><br />I'm going to try to make it, but I will not be there at 4:00. I watch two boys. I pick one of them up at 4:00 from track, and their Mom usually gets here between 4:30 - 5:00. So, start looking for me around 5:00ish. Let me know if you two end up not going. If you need to leave before I show up though, don't worry about it. Thanks for the invite. Roofus thanks you too!<br /><br />CindyBee Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15818958787610823509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758419071318872390.post-19458216031674734042010-09-01T11:51:34.852-07:002010-09-01T11:51:34.852-07:00Oh Cindy Bee...Me and Scribe are going to Paneras ...Oh Cindy Bee...Me and Scribe are going to Paneras on Thursday...prob. around 4pm or so...If your feeling up to it bring Roofus and meet us thereReality Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00078087201358056618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4758419071318872390.post-23133560265189479682010-08-30T17:50:12.503-07:002010-08-30T17:50:12.503-07:00Cindy, that is BEAUTIFUL!!!

I use to make a couple of afgans a year now only every few years. I love your granny stripe if I did not have so many projects started I might start one. Have to wait on it. I am the opposite I just learned to knit a few months ago. I just bought some needles..round? to make a shawl for my friend of 30 years for her birthday the day after Christmas. I need to cast on soon and get started. Its the casting on that I forget how to do.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07431119683829319380noreply@blogger.com
