Thursday

What is this??? Well, it will soon be a Head Hugger 'No-Hair-Day' Hairy Chemo Cap for the Boston Children's Hospital Cancer Center. I am blaming Susan for knitting with fun fur! Actually, the one below is the free sample of Bernat Disco that Bernat sent out last year. Everyone I know that got a sample got this brown color. Well, it will soon be a chemo cap.

And, I just got a Joann's ad in the paper today and I see that their fun fur is $1 a ball starting tomorrow. I am just wondering if I can find a "masculine" color of fun fur.

Kate is having a contest and collecting the caps. There are lots of prizes...even a spindle/large project bag from Knitted Bits.
On Saturday we took the kids to visit Grandma Linda & Grandpa and met them at the Mesa Swapmart. It was chilly but boy, you could buy everything you need for your house, except food, at the swap meet.

After that, we had lunch at the Fishing Hole on Main & Sossaman. Apparently, the building used to be a country bar or something because the bar stools in the back are still saddles. The kids had a good time riding in their saddles.
The food was good! They even had deep fried scalloped corn. Linda convinced us it was worth trying and it was....we were just trying to figure out how they deep fried the scalloped corn.

I have a scarf a freind knitted me from fun fur...I love it! I always wondered about it though-seems like it would be a real pain to knit. Is it?

Nice cause for the cap, Sarah! You do such nice things w/your knit projects.
