Married!

Yeah, it's been a while. I'm hoping to get back into blogging (like I say every time) now that I'm completing projects again. I'd like to have a record for myself, even if no one else reads this :).

I'm blogging from my phone, so I don't have a ton of photos, but I'll post a couple now, and then will blog from my normal computer later. (just want to get a post in while I have the motivation!)

So my main project, the past many months, was my wedding veil. It was quite the undertaking, but I managed to finish it. With 5 weeks to spare on the knitting! Below is a photo from my photographer (the amazing Mandie at Red Gecko Studio).

Sigh. I love this photo. She captured the knitting so wonderfully!

The pattern was Deep Forest by Nicole Hindes. The yarn is The Plucky Knitter 100% Cashmere in Candy Apple. I used a little more than 3 skeins for a total of about 1250yds.

Other things were knit for the wedding as well: the ring bearer pillow and bouquet wraps. I don't have any photos of those now, but will get them for my next post. I also knit Caleb some socks (well, I only had one done by the wedding).

There were other craft projects too, including some headbands for the flower girls with big felt dahlias I made (see photo below).

They turned out really cute!

There are many more photos to share from the wedding, so maybe I'll save them for another post :).

Well, that's all for now. Hopefully I'll be back after the holiday with more pictures and posts. Have a happy Thanksgiving! BlogBooster-The most productive way for mobile blogging. BlogBooster is a multi-service blog editor for iPhone, Android, WebOs and your desktop
