This and That

I have discovered that I have a talent for knitting simple things.  Hats are my specialty and I have had so much fun thinking of new ways to make them...I have never used a pattern...I'm not very confident in my ability to follow one, so I just make them up in my head and see if they work.  Right now I'm trying to make fingerless gloves...saw them in a knitting booklet but the pattern they have is waaaaay to complicated even for my grandmother who has been knitting since she was in high school.  I'm about halfway done...we'll see how long it takes me to get the thumb hole correct!

I also might have a car by this time tomorrow!  I have been looking 
alot the past 2 weeks and my dad and I went to test drive a car awhile ago and it seemed very good.  Its a 1999 red Honda Civic EX coup....MANUAL, just like I wanted, and if I can talk the dealer down on the price, I'm going to get it!

WOW! Nice looking car!

So, any pics of the hats you're making? I can crochet, but never learned how to knit. ALL knitting patterns look confusing to me.
There are many free patterns on line for both! *Free* is always appreciated...

Yay for sick shift cars!! I drove one through high school and college and I actually miss them sometimes. (Danny's ancient truck didn't count)

From your mom's post, I see the car deal didn't go through. Sorry~~ Sure did like the shiny red!
Now to see what the LORD has planned for you...
