Finished! Woo-hoo! I'm now working on Sheldon the Turtle from knitty.com. I'm working on his shell. I discovered the kelly green yarn I got was smaller than the body yarn I got. So, I found some Caron green yarn that sort of matched the color I'm looking for. Hope it is the same weight. This is the second stuffed animal I have done. The first turned out rather pathetic. It was a rabbit. I don't have the heart to put a face on it yet. I knit it way too loosely and so it looks rather sad looking. But Sheldon is turning out very well. I'll post a picture later.
Another project I keep looking at to start is the Harry Potter bookscarf. It is way to cute not to start. I've started reading book 7 but keep falling asleep. Too much going on right now to stay focused on the book. That is a first for me! Usually it would be finished by now!
I hope to go to knit night tonight. I haven't been in sooo long. I'm taking Sheldon with me. We are meeting at a new yarn store in Arvada. I'm excited. New yarn stores are fabulous. I wish a friendly yarn store would pop up near me. Some day...

Hi,
My name is Mandy and i work for Direction Press. Part of my job is to search blogs to find new yarn shops & needlepoint shops.
That is because we have a website, ShopYarn.com where we keep an
up-to-date list of yarn & needlepoint shops in the US. We also publish the Knitters' Needlepointers' Crocheters' Weavers' & Spinners' Travel Guide book.
I am contacting you because you mentioned that a new yarn shop opened in your town. . I was trying to find more information about the store, unfortunately i am having no luck. So, i was wondering if you
could please provide me with any information regarding that store.
Thank you for your time and all your help.
Sincerely,
Mandy
