If you click the URL below you can watch the video of Mark Skiing Wii style. The lady on the couch laughing is our neighbor, Diana. If Mark skied like this when he lived in Chardon, I imagine he fell down alot! Be sure to watch the arm action which is the part that makes me laugh the most. Let me know if the link doesn't work for you and I'll send it directly to your email address. By the way, this Wii was my Christmas gift...not! Mark really bought it for himself and I got to open it up. I truly knew it was for him when I opened the Fighter Pilot game! If it was for me I would have been opening some dance/exercise game or knitting/quilting game...he did buy 'me' the Wii Fit too.
Mark's computer crashed and my computer was older than his, so we each got a new computer and it has new programs that I have to get used to. I hope this blog turns out ok.
Below are photos of my current knitting projects. I would include a photo of the baby Michigan quilt, but it's all off the wall and the rows are getting sewn together. I'll send another photo when I have it ready to quilt.
This photo below, believe it or not, is showing the start of the class I took lastnight called 2 Socks At The Same Time. They are done on a 47" circular needle using the Magic Loop method. My daughter, Jenny, has requested a pair of socks and they will be her Pittsburgh Steelers Rah Rah Sox. I know it's hard to tell from the skeins of yarn in the handy dandy plastic container, but the yarn is a self striping yellow and black. If you use your imagination the result so far looks like eyeglasses from a distance...or is that just my imagination? This may end up being a really cool technique for getting the pair done at the same time, but this long circular needle is getting quite twisted during the process!
Awww...this photo below shows the body complete with eyes and collar plus two legs of a baby gift I'm making for one of our many pregnant nieces. I'm seaming the arms, ears and tail next and attaching them. He should look pretty cute when I'm all finished. I'm sending the book to go with it. Clever idea one of my friends had when I told her I wanted to make a red dog.

This photo below shows the body of a baby sweater I'm making for Baby Kahn due the end of February. I'm thinking it's a boy, but this sweater could suit a girl too. I have both sleeves going at the same time on a long circular needle (not shown) so they'll both be finished at the same time and the hood will be last. A little hoodie!
That's it today....keep warm!
