tonight was the mystery sock group (which this month was the mystery mitten group -- they're doing this fun "christmas in July" thing at that knitting shop) --- and it was a blast. I usually do have a good time at those because a lot of my knitting friends go and I have made some new friends too and also my Mom goes to it and we have a good time together!
Tonight we were learning how to make mittens (for many of us the first time)...
IT WAS GREAT!! She taught us how to do a basic cable -- and let me tell you I was so excited to learn this!! I'll post a pic of the mittens when I can -- need new batteries for the camera!
funny story as we were leaving -- Mom and Kay and I were standing up getting ready to leave when suddenly someone's car alarm starts going off in the parking lot beside the shop...
My mom says "who's alarm is that??" and we have this lil discussion about car alarms etc. and how she is no stranger to accidentally setting hers off by pressing the panic button.
We step outside the shop and the alarm is still going off... we round the corner as Mom is saying "Who's car is that!?!??!" and Kay says "It's yours you big goof!" and we all laugh because somehow (THRU THE WALL no less!) Mom had set off her car alarm with the panic button... yet again...
toooo funny.
