Fiber Friday

  Had a good time on Fiber Friday with some of the Eastside Stitchers.  Worked on the sweater for my grandson.  The sleeves are about 1/4-1/3 of the way finished. 
  I worked on the crochet sweater for my grand-nephew while I was in Haiti.  I have a portion of the body of the teddy bear started.  I think that it is cute so far, can't wait until I get the front finished so I can see how it looks.

     Here are some photos from Haiti.  I had a wonderful trip.  I hope to make it to Fiber Friday knit group this week.  I am still trying to recoup from the trip.

Back from Haiti

   Well I'm back from Haiti.  Was a great trip and would love to go again.  I will post pictures in the next day or two.  I am still recovering from the time change and early rising the day we left Ft. Lauderdale.  We had to get up at 3:00AM, Florida time, to get to the airport in time for our flight to Atlanta.
