Horse Shoe Cable Bag

Cuzco & Peruvia Quick #281 Pattern #9 Queue
Photobucket

This was also the first knitting project I have ever done, so keep that in mind. I did find a few patter mess ups. It was pretty easy for me to do and finish. I did find a few mistakes in the pattern. it says to work row 1- 11st of the Rib pattern then 12 st in the Horse Shoe Cable twice, then 11st of the Rib again. But that will leave you will left over stitches. So you should work it like this, row 1- 11st in the Rib pattern 12st in the Horse Shoe Cable 11st in the Rib 12st in the Horse Shoe then 11 in the Rib. I also found this mistake. Row 2 the Cable pattern, also leaves off two stitches, so the last two should be p2 since the first 2 were p2 you should end with p2. Plus all even rows were started and ended with purl. I also only needed 3 hanks of Berroco Peruvia Quick (100g) the pattern asks for 4.

Wall-E




What a cute movie, but most of the Pixar movies are very cute. This movie is a great movie to teach your kids what happens if you don't recycle or take care of our earth. My 3 year old son sat threw the whole movie at the theater even after he told me he had to use the rest room. He still sat and watched the movie. He still talks about Wall-E and EVA. He tells me "Mama we can buy it." he doesn't he has to wait until Nov. 18th for it to come out on DVD or Blue Ray.

Now my mother on the other hand thinks that this movie is way to violent and that little kids should not be watching this movie. She also thinks that this movie might offend over weight people.

Rent the movie or buy it and tell me what you think.

Hidden (Sisters of the Heart, Bk 1) By Shelley Shepard Gray

Shelly Shepard is going to be one great writer. With her first book written and published, people already can not wait for her 2nd book in the series 'Sisters of the Heart'. If you are a PaperBackSwap member there are already 50+ wishers for the book 'Wanted' By Shelly Sheapard.





About the book 'Hidden' it was a very fast read for me. It did take me a few pages to get into the book. But I am a mom of 2 little boys. Every time I would sit down to read it at night after my kids were put to bed I would read a page and fall right to sleep. But once I started reading the book at my boys nap time I was able to read most the book in a few hours. The book flowed for the most part. It did have some sadness in it, was a little predictable, but still a great fast read. I can not wait to see what is going to happen to Anna and Katie in the next books to come.
