I have been busy recouping from my laminectomy on L3, 4, & 5. It is
doing ok.

I am working on a crocheted queen size afghan that it smocked to pull
every other row together to make kind of a diamond shape. It has been
on the hook for several month. Millions of ends to be sewn in after
smoking.

I have made several pairs of socks for friends and family, a couple of
caps and scarves. I made a beautiful scarf for myself out of a wool
tweed made in Germany. It is a sport weight and is super soft. I made
it a little wide, 7 inches. It is 70 inches long. I never make
anything for me.

I will spend the next several weeks working on scarves, caps, and
mittens for the mission in Rockford, IL.

A friends 5 year old informed me that she needs a "pink and purple scarf
and hat. I will work that in. I will double crochet the scarf for
speed and knit the cap.

Some day I will knit the Aaron sweater I have always promised myself, I
have made many for others.

I need to spend more time on the knitting sheaths Aaron send me, maybe
he will get his video out soon.

Gail is do alright with the "Lou Gehrigs desease", she is keeping up the
spirits.

I am sorry I have not kept in touch as much as in the past but, my life
is very hectic at this time and I am doing many things at once.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

Wonderful to make something for yourself....I give all my stuff
away...charity or family and friends...my hope is after the Holidays to
finish the Adult Baby Surprise for me<G> I have started a lapgan for my
niece...it's one of those big granny squares with 4 colors and each row is a
different color......I have seen ads for Vanna's Choice Yarn line at
Lionbrand and JoAnn's carries it so went to see what all the fuss was about
and I was very surprised for a 100 percent Acrylic yarn to find it very soft
and springy $2.98 per skein and 170 yards in worsted weight. I give it a
thumbs up and hope they add more colors as the current line is muted earth
tones.

Hoping for a speedy recovery and prayers for Gail.

Donna

Thanks for the Prayers and kind words.
