1 F.O and Endless W.I.Ps







I can't believe February flew by so fast!  Luckily I got my Walking Dead/Valentines Day socks finished before February! I have been really enjoying this season of The Walking Dead so far!  Lately I have been working on a new pair of socks, a shawl, and the new Flidais Stole which is a Knit Picks pattern that I am really liking so far! I also got some new yearn from my LYS.  I got some new sock yarn to join in on the Pinfeathers and Purls Stripey Sock KAL.  I'm going to be making these socks for my mom!  They also had some sale yarn so I got some super soft thick yarn for two hat patterns I've had in mind and have been wanting to knit.

I also started cutting my fabric for my new David Bowie themed Donuts Quilt!  I just got my Backing Fabric in the mail and I am so excited to start cutting and sewing!  I have never pre-washed my fabric but this time I am going to try, especially since my backing fabric is black and I do not want it to bleed once I wash my quilt later when it is all finished.  This quilt is inspired by my favorite David Bowie song!  If you have any guesses on which one it might be feel free to leave a comment!

Yesterday we also introduced a new kitty to our family!  We named him Watson!  Since our other cat is named Sherlock we thought Watson would be a good name for this new cat!  So far he has been living in my room until Sherlock gets used to his scent and then we will introduce them to each other! Watson is such a love!  He likes to cuddle!
