It's a beautiful thing

Let me first show you my yarn that is much much brighter in this picture than it is in person...
summer drinks is what I was calling it...maybe summer drinks "after party" is what I should call it?
Makes my eyes hurt



I don't know if you can really see the problem here, but I hate it when I do this :(  one warp section is one yard shorter than the rest...wasted warp yarn...4 ply worsted wool, which is not easy to get a hold of.  Anyway I am at the end of a fairly long rug warp...yippee




Beautiful sight isn't it?  Fresh pile of rugs off of the loom...




The red one is for hubby's love of Alabama football
Roll tide...cept they don't have too much black?
I'm a dork...pfffft

The gray with maroon and white darts is a too big saddle blanket.  It is like stepping on heaven so I may keep it for my feet only :)  My horses wouldn't appreciate it anyway!





I'm calling this rug the drunk zebra...you will lose your cookies if you look too long.
Thinking of a 1 or 2 inch folded end on this.




Just a plain weave gray with black accents.  Kinda nice to go back to plain for awhile.


So that is why I have been MIA.
Knee surgery has been scheduled for May 29th, both knee's, ack.  I'm sceerd.
I am trying to get a bazillion projects done so I can hand finish them all while I sit for a month....boo.

OH and just for my purposes only, my oldest is trying to put me over the edge.  In my will when I die my kids have to find this blog, read it, write a report on it before they get to go sell all of my stuff :))
