Kyra's Shawl, and hair cut :)

 Not too much progress to report on the Shawl. But there it is. :)

I am not following a pattern for this one. So hopefully it will turn out looking like a shawl.

Once I finish the length on it, I need to add a hood. I have the idea in my head how to do the hood. Just hope that when I actully work it out that it looks like what is pictured in my head. I will try and get the next pictures with Kyra in them. So everyone can see what it looks like wrapped on someone. :)

The Before shot.....

The after shot.. Finally was able to get Kyra in to see Jenna. And just in time since school pictures are tomorrow. Kyra has been anxious to get her hair cut. She has been wanting to have some bangs. Although in this picture it is a little hard to tell that she has them. Jenna only cut a side swipe of bangs;which is what Kyra wanted. And they blend into her hair also. It actully turned out really cute. :)

And here is a fun shot where you can actully see her bangs. :) She loves them

Have a great day everyone!

WIP Wednesday

Here is an updated photo of the shawl for Kyra. I ripped out what I had originally done. It just wasn't quite right and it wasn't big enough. So hopfully this time around it will work out better. Kyra is very anxious for me to get this one done.

The Monster Scrappy is growing. I have added some yellow and another shade of blue. :) It is getting closer to the halfway point. Yay :)

The weather is finally starting to cool down at night. So I really need to kick it into high gear on this project.

 Ahh! Yes, the ripples..... I have put those two projects aside as I really want to get this Granny Stripe finished for my bed. And I also want to get this shawl finished for Kyra. I will pick up working on them again soon. :)

A visitor

 Look at who came for a visit. I found him hanging around my patio door a couple days ago. Eww, he hung around for most of the day. And when I got up the next morning he was gone.

 Here is another view of him. I didn't know what he was at first. But found out later it is a yellow garden spider.

 It is cooling off around here now. And its quite cloudy today. Looks like we will be getting some rain soon.
These pictures are from the front Lawn.

 And here are a couple pictures of Kyra's shawl. I have had to rip it out a few times allready. But I think I have a good start on it now. I am trying to write it down as I go and maybe later I will have a pattern to go with it. I am using a WW yarn for it. The part in the picture will be at the neckline. I am going to widen it a little at a time as the length gets longer. I will add the hooded part on at the end. And I am thinking about making some ties for the top part.  Kyra saw another one she likes that has buttons on the front so I may have to make another one if this one works out.
