Its 2025!!!

Here is the mantra for the year!

How are yall? I am well....I have been busy caston on new things.....I know yall are not surprised! LOL!

First, do you remember back around 4th of july I had bought some yarn to make a Unicorn Clud Wrap? Well I had also bough more yarn in October.....this black color

I have the gray to Darlene and she has started a wrap too...and Jennifer, Elizabeth and Melissa are also joining!

I have cast this thing on no less than 5 times....I even did a guage swatch but I liked how loose Jennifer's looked so I re-cast on several times...... It was too tight, too wide, too this, too that....and now it is like golidlocks and finall right on size 8 needle (calls for size 5) and the 100 stitch count

Jennifer is making this gorgeous one with pink lace yarn and a speckled slub yarn.....it is so gorgeous....and she is sooooooo amazing that she sent me 2 skeins of the slub yarn! I ordered some Emma's Yarn Suri Silk in the Sweet Magnolia colorway and I think it will look amazing!

Thank you Jennifer!

Here is hers.....and then the yarn she sent me......I LOVE IT!

I also started a playstation cover....I am winging this one and might write up a pattern....we will see. I got Lupe a new PS5 Pro for Christmas and he loves it but we want to keep dust and dog hair out of it.

I started an Ankers Sweater.....it is a birthday gift for someone special!

I got some new yarn in to make the embers cowl...this is like a shiny super thin lace weight yarn to hold with fingering I guess. I got Rose Gold and Silver
