Another Hat

Mama has been thinking about getting a knitting loom.  She has been watching YouTube videos on people using them.  She said it looked easy.  She decided she wanted to try the Martha Stewart  Knitting Loom Kit because not only does it have a circle loom but it has several pieces that you put together to make different shapes. Yesterday afternoon, she set out to make a hat.  She kept saying "This is so much fun and it is so easy!"

Wow, Mama, that is a nice hat!



Unfortunately, the hat came out kind of small.

Yep, the only thing it fits is the penguin.  BOL!
The instructions say that Mama should add pieces to the round pieces to make it an oval and it will fit most heads.  Mama is going to follow the instructions today.  BOL!

We are not getting that motor home.  The mechanic found a few things wrong and they would be costly to repair.  The generator has an oil leak.  There is a problem with one of the slides and the cook top has a part that is bad and it is no longer made, so the whole thing has to be replaced.  The owner refused to pay for the repairs or lower his price, so we walked away.  It is back on the lot with the 10 foot of damage along the side.  Yikes!  Insurance will pay for that damage, of course.

  2. I know the perfect home is out there just waiting for you. I think it was best to walk away from that one. No need to take on headaches if you don't have to.
    Blessings,

  3. Sorry the new home didn't work out, but sounds like you made the wise decision. I can't wait to see what you do with your new loom. I've been tempted by that loom, but I'm trying to FOCUS this year. One day, it will be mine...probably thanks to all the cool things I see you doing with it.

  4. Your mama could leave that hat the way it is and it could be for you! The hounds are fighting like crazy to get knitted hats on Facebook, you know! ;)

    I'm sure the perfect RV is waiting for you!
