Knitting, animals, teddies, rabbits

Although I meant to keep my blog general I must post about what I am currently working on. I got inspired by this web blogsite http://littlecottonrabbits.typepad.co.uk/ and was hooked. Just had to make some teddies, rabbits and more. I searched and found just the right teddy for me to knit and so have been working on them for the past two weeks.
I am in transition from the old house to the new house so knitting these teddies is a small project that I can take with me from old to new house. I absolutely am having the most fun working on them. Once I get them all stuffed I'll post some pics. Why aren't they stuffed you ask? Well if you saw our garage you would understand that not everything is at my fingertips. It is organized into categories, kitchen, bath, livingroom, crafts and fiber (lots of fiber). It just happens that we have been too busy putting up fences, both new and old, in order to get the alpacas all moved down to the new property.
So during the week, while I am at the old house, I sit and knit teddies and sew them together awaiting their final stage. Wednesday's and weekends I am at the new place working with Jerry on fencing.
We had rain yesterday. So much rain in fact that I could not even get out to the alpacas to give them dry food. It was one giant puddle for acres and acres. This morning most all of the water had soaked in and the alpacas got extra rations. No complaints though, we really needed the rain.
Well once we get up and settled and the "office" painted we'll have the computer set up and I'll start trying to get some pics posted on this blog as well as my ramblings!
