Car knitting today as I rode along with my husband over the river and though the hills to the hometown of Andy Griffith where Mayberry is personified as much as possible, even to offering sheriff car rides siren included, all for a price.
These TV Slippers are a revisited knitting project originally popular in the 1960's. Back in the 1990's I knitted several pairs for some of my friends and family for Christmas gifts. Jane posted about these slippers and a little lightbulb went off in my brain with happy memories. I went upstairs and easily found the pattern. A bin of my stashed yarn revealed a ball of Brown Sheep wool yarn perfect for knitting a pair. These will be gifted to my granddaughter.
Over at the cottage baking molasses ginger cookies this evening.
The kerosene lamp was found in a little local vintage shop. The "Home Sweet Home" was etched into the glass globe, a good find even to the blue colored vase.
A $20.00 artificial tree purchased at Big Lots. It is really quite festive decorated at the cottage.
