I Love Those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells

Hey fellow fleet of bloggasauruses, I totally spelled that wrong :)! Anyways, I finished my gift exchange.. sort of! I am still working on Aubrey & Danielle's dinosaurs, but I completed my whole Christmas list otherwise! My secret santa girl was Aubrey, just incase if your wondering who she is. And Danielle was our field commander. I was Cassidy's secret santa, and she knitted me the darn cutest owl on the face of the whole brickin earth. It is probaly the cutest thing I've ever seen knitted. Anyways, I will try to post pictures of my finished projects soon! Merry Christmas- Han :)

Boulevard of Broken Promises

Hey Guyys! I haven't posted in a while... but, but, but! I am currently attempting Christmas Knitting projects. The hats were successfully knitted and delivered, and the people are actually in Kenya right now :) It feels so good to do something for others. I like this feeling :) Anyways I finished my hat for Danielle (our field commander/drum major in band) It's really cute too. I'll try to take a picture with my phone of it. I am currently working on the Jane's hat, (the other piccolo from band, I was a piccolo too:), I twisted a stitch so I'm trying to fix it. I have one project down, three more to go. I have Janes hat, a secret santa gift, and Danielle's dinosaur. I'm knitting a blue and pink varigated dinosaur for my secret santa. I'm also knitting Danielle a magenta dinosaur for Christmas too. I just love the holiday season :) - KG or a.k.a Han

The Story of My Knitting Life Explanation

Hey Fellow bloggers, sorry I havent been able to update my blogs for a month and sixteen days (not that I was counting ;D). Marching band has eaten my life up. There are two weeks left for my first season. Then my life comes to a complete halt, giving me the free time I havent been able to grasp since June. Seriously, we started July 4th, and we will end November 1st. So I'm dusting off my blogs and getting jiggy with it. I finished to purple dinosaur. My camera cord is still MIA, but let me say so myself, its adorable! I kind of altered the pattern a bit. The link for the original pattern is in my Grumpasaurus post. I will try very hard to post pictures. Music has been my life right now, and knitting on the busrides has been very handy to me. I also managed to get Principals List this past first nine weeks YAY! I will pledge to blog more!

Skeins of Hope

Recently, some family friends came to visit. They live in the United States, but run a program that takes place in Kenya. They alternate living between the two. The program is called Hope Ministries. With the help of many, they were able to fund a school, a pump and a well, and a prayer center. But when they were visiting, we began to talk, and I said I knit. Well.... Eventually it led into the creation of: PROJECT SKEINS OF HOPE. Skeins of Hope is a project that will take place now to the begginning of December. The whole idea behind it is too knit as many child and infant hats as my group can until than. They asked that the child hats have earflaps and an i-chord attached to it to keep the ears warm, and so they can tie the i-chords together to keep them on. I am soo excited an cannot wait to buy yarn =) Please give my feedback (Anna) on what you think! - KG =)

One Thing Down, A Billion More To Go

Oh where, oh where, could my camera cord be? Oh where, oh where could it be??? I don't know, I've looked everywhere for it twice!!!! I finished the body to my grumpasaurus, and I sewed the eyes, mouth and tail on! It is sooo darn cute! I am trying to post pictures, but I can't find my camera cord anywheres, and its driving me bananas. I'm so sorry, I will post pics as soon as I find that darn cord.... - A Very Annoyed KG

SHOUT OUT SATURDAY

I've been really grateful to finish my grumpasaurus, and I couldnt have done it with out the help of some really awesome people. A special shout out goes to the Yarn Club, ran by my best friend's family. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH! If it weren't for yarn club, I would be lost. You guys rock! I love going and getting to knit with you. The future looks bright with many, many more projects ahead - KG =)

Miniscule Update =D

If you noticed..... I changed the name of my blog! As I posted in my "Halfway There" post, I said that the power was out for a long time due to a really damaging but unexpected thunder storm. I got so bored living in the stone ages, that I began to think. Knitters Works is a boring name, so I changed it to diamonds & purls. You know, like pearls, but not. The same but its different =D Please comment and let me know what you think! YOU ROCK! - KG =D

HALFWAY THERE!!!

As you lovely blog followers know, I have been knitting the grumpasaurus. Well....... *drumroll* I COMPLETED HIS BODY!!! YAY!!! Yep, its true!!!! I now start on his tail! Soon (hopefully very soon) I will have it done!!!! Sorry I havent posted pictures, my powers been out for like three days, and I kind of forgot. But I promise I will be posting some very soon! - KG =)
