I love it when DH and the kids take
their cues from Mom. Our daughter heard
me talking about the big, floppy sun hat I saw at the garden shop last week and
that I thought I should go back and get it because I need new gardening
gloves. Guess what was in the gift bag
she set in front of me on Mother’s Day.
Son #3 recently asked how many frogs
I have in the garden, and once I established that he was talking about
decorative frogs and not the real ones I told him that I was currently
frogless. Not any longer—I now have four
frogs in the garden (two seen here). I
am a happy gardener (and a well-dressed one too).
Knitting moves along with the yellow anklet
and a new start prompted by Nancy of
Wyoming Breezes. I am using her baby
blanket method expanded to full sized afghan.
This one will be done in the Chicago Bears colors navy, orange and
white.
Life is good!!

AHA! Thanks for the shout out! Try it YOULL LIKE IT. Two socks side by side eliminates Second SoCK SYndrome for me altogether.
YOU LOOK MAAAHHHH Valous in that hat. I LOVE that picture!!
I need some frogs too , I think.
CUbs have won 4 in a row...I know, I know....that may be all the fun we have this year!!!!
and Yippee my chives are shooting up in the garden:)
I love knitting two socks at the same time: it makes the knitting go faster for some reason.
The mitered square baby blanket is finished (it will be featured in tomorrow's post). It was a fun knit, so I know you will enjoy making your Chicago Bears blanket.
You are beautiful in your new hat.
You look charming in that hat! It's a great accessory for you. I love the frogs as well - my husband also loves them. Maybe I should put some in our garden.
Many years ago a friend 'challenged' me to learn two at a time, magic looping. I don't get second sock syndrome - but my tension is so different from one sock to the next on double pins - which I love, but no longer use.

I adore that photo of you. Bravo for gift-givers who pay attention!!
