Ray went to the cardiologist this afternoon and the cardiologist said to him " I rarely get to give this news but your heart and arteries are totally in wonderful shape. I am very happy to be able to tell you this" Now how good is that? I on the other hand have dreadful CAD but medicines keep me on my feet.
Look what I found - a coloured background, I keep finding new things to play with all the time. Fun Eh!
Tuesday stuff today, It was so much fun. I took a 1/4" foot to Betty. I happened to have two of them and she had none so I gave her the extra one. That wasn't necessarily the fun part LOL but it got the day off to a good start.
I finished one of my butterflies and began the next one, the top wings are a beautiful yellow, the bottom ones are orange and yellow. I just got started on the top and then had to go to Community Quilts early to give an update on the facebook page that I did for CQ. I told the group what I did and that I was not sure that Facebook was the way to go as you had to belong to FB to access the group. So I didn't think that was the way to go. What is the way to go is another question, I am not sure. Of course I'll have to ask Mary for advice. Thank goodness for clever granddaughters.
Sock work : When the sock is down to the correct length for the foot it is time to decrease for the toe.
On needle one knit to the last three stitches knit 2 together , knit one. On needle two /k1,Sl1,K1,PSSO,
Knit ti the last three stitches on needle two and knit 2 together,K1. On needle three K1,SL1,K1,PSSO. Knit ti end of needle three. Now knit around all three needles , no decreases. Do these two rounds until there are 5 stitches on needles one and three and 10 stitches on needle two.
Now we do the Ktichener stitch which grafts the toe.
Because it it easier to see it than to explain it go to this site:
