I'm Happy To Report That......

           I'm happy to report that the snow and ice that we were expecting to blanket our roads on this early morning decided to be a 'No Show'!...YAY!!!!! Now we can go into our long weekend...(Monday coming will be a day off too because of the holiday)...without stressful precarious driving, and longer grocery lines than usual, on our minds! We're just gonna relax our way into...and out of...it! ^_^
       I'm gonna crochet my brains out too!! ^_^ Actually, I've already gotten a head start on it! Here are the photos I took of my latest finished...yes, I said FINISHED...black, yellow and gray scarf...

         My messed up camera work has the gray section looking more like a powder blue, but it's actually more of a slate gray. The photos below of the fingerless gloves I'm working on are made with the same yarn. You can see more of their real color in those photos. I took them at a different time of the day. The light was better.
      But for now...

       ...I'm hoping you can at least get a sense of how soft it is, even if you can't see the exact colors...

     And here are the fingerless gloves...Well, actually they're wrist warmers...

         I'm further along now than the photo shows. I worked on it some more this morning when I woke up. That's my morning coffee...grabbing a hook and my crocheting and doing a few rows. Ahhhhhh! So relaxing...and caffeine-free!! LOL

       I'm still debating about whether I'm gonna put the yellow and black rows around the end of the glove, and on the thumb, or if I wanna leave the rest all gray. You know me though, when in doubt...put some color on it!! ^_^
       Speaking of color, I'm also happy to report that I had another item from my Wuglyees Etsy shop chosen for another treasury!! :-) The title of the treasury is Primary Class...

         I think Melissa, of melizzzah, chose the name because of the primary colors used on some of the items she chose. I said 'I think' because I don't really know if that's true, but it seemed so to me when I looked at the colors. 
       Look at this necklace and tell me what you think?!

         Pretty 'primary', right?! :-) 

         And my primary-colored crochet scarf definitely fits that category!...

       Although...this yarn was chosen for it too O_0 ...

 (Gray and Yellow Yarn by SweetBasilFibreWorks)

       Are these shades of gray and yellow on the primary color wheel?!

      I guess if the gray and yellow in my scarf qualify...then their gray and yellow qualifies too! :-]

       {This was a picture I took of the scarf the other day when I was starting it. This shot shows a more realistic look of the colors, especially the gray.}

     Lastly, I'm also happy to report that, barring any car accidents...PLEASE! NO MORE FRIDAYS LIKE LAST WEEK!!!...we will be going away on a 'Virtual Date Night' trip tonight. I might tell you where tomorrow! ^_^ Or we might extend it a day or two...Hey! We've got the time off!! ^_^ If so, I'll tell you about it later! :-) You know I'll tell you about it either way. I can't help myself!!

      As a quick reminder, don't forget to enter the 'crochet button key chain' Giveaway...check the link on the right hand sidebar for details...And have a good weekend everybody!! :-)

 Virtual trip

I really like to travel,
See the world, expand my mind.
But not getting on an airplane,
or hunting luggage I can't find!

I like a 'good ole' virtual trip.
Computer details. Music too.
Where you don't need a stinking passport,
or have to wear a stinking shoe!
