Where did summer go?

Wow, where in the heck did the summer go? Our summer went by so quickly after our little week of mishaps summer sped by with incredible speed. Sending the kids back to school we hit a huge bump in the road, no it was more like a black hole in the road. We ended up sending the kids to a different school which caused a bit of a ruckus in the family. It has all settled down quite a bit now thank goodness. I have to say that now the decision is made and the kids are happily going to school I am feeling much better about life in general. They are now at the school I would have chosen if I would have listened to my heart years ago. I think the contentedness has led to more knitting! Or maybe its just that I only have two kids at home with me during the day. Either way I've finished of quite a few projects in the past three months. And many more on the needles! I'm once again hoping to be a better blogger this fall and winter. I'm hoping posting will keep me motivated to finish projects and not just start them! I'm also participating in  HPKCHC on Ravelry witch is a Harry Potter inspired groups if your not familiar go check it out! Its so much fun!

So if any of you are curious exactly what I've been up to this summer here are a few of my finished off projects. =)
These are my Somewhere Socks knit in Sunshine Yarns Over the Rainbow colorway

Sadona Hat knit in Sunshine Yarns Sedona Worsted

Weasly Burrow Sock knit in Sunshine Yarns Harry Potter Sock Club yarn colorway The Burrow

Baby Socks knit with leftover Ella Rae colorway Girls Night Out

Girly Girl Shawl Knit with Ella Rae colorway Girls Night Out

And Stupid Shiny Socks knit with Sunshine Yarns Edward's Volvo.... These socks gave me a bit of trouble on the end of the second one. They also won me a Sunshine Yarns Ecology Kit so it was well worth the trouble! ;) 


As you can see I'm hopelessly in love with Sunshine Yarn's. My stash keeps growing. Someone may need to stage an intervention sometime in the near future! That's all I've got for today. I'll post sometime very soon (no really, I will!) with pictures of my works in progress and maybe a couple of fall pictures of my crazy kids!

Later! ~Amber
