I woke up and Rody already had the kids up and eating breakfast. Him and Kenzie were going to church, but I decided to stay home with the kids since they were still coughing and had runny noses.

When they took a nap we decided to show Rody how to knitt, Kenzie wanted to teach him, so I let her.

He didnt really love it…haha he kept saying it was confusing. O well, at least he tried!

I knitted a coffee cozy for my mom, and I knitted one for Misty, and one for around my candle…which Im not going to light, because its from my mom so its special! It deserves a cozy ;)

Then we ate turkey subs for lunch…and someone was eyeballin mine.

Hahahaha

Then I decided to try to come up with a pattern for some boot cuffs for Kenzie.

I casted on 36

Then knitted 20 regular rows

Then I knitted 6 regular and 6 pearl stitches all the way across for 6 rows

Then I knitted 6 pearl and 6 regular stitches all the way across for 6 more rows

Then I knitted 6 regular and 6 pearl stitches all the way across for 6 more rows

Then I did all pearl rows for 6 rows

Then I added white, and knitted 4 regular rows

And then I casted off.

Then I turned it inside out and sowed the edges together in a circle, gray yarn for the gray and white yarn for the white.

Then turned it inside out and it came out like this.

I am so happy it turned out, I just made it up as I went, luckily I wrote it down for the 2nd one so they would match :)

Here they are:

I love how it looked during making it!

I got done with both at 3:30 am and now I am super tired!

SURE HOPE KENZIE WEARS THEM!!!

We are adding a button to each of them tomorrow, under the white in the center of. Cant wait to see if they fit her lol

Now I am going to bed, finally!
