Living up to the name...

The name of my blog is my sister's knitter, as of late I haven't been living up to the name. There have been hats, blankets, and lots of socks for me. Not that the sister minds at all, but she has put in a request. I have crocheted my sister some face cloths before, but she asked for some new ones.

The other ones did not get lost, but became completely useless when something appalling happened. According to the sister, my brother in law used one in the shower. She could not use them on her face now, because she was worried that at some point they may have come in contact with his "man parts". 

  
The pattern was a freebie on Ravelry and the yarn is some cotton from my stash.

Okay on to a more savory topic. Food! I loved hearing about some of your favorite comfort foods. Soup seems to be on everyone's list. I whipped up this recipe today and it was delicious! I added some carrots, corn, green onions, parsely,and thyme.  ( I never can leave well enough alone)

 
I could eat soup everyday.I have been looking for some good vegetable soup recipes, do you have any? Please share!

Happy Knitting everyone and hopefully your knits are "man-part" free.

I can't say I blame your sister for wanting new face cloths. She might have to hide them better though.

I love pumpkin soup. I'm using Acorn squash for it. Your soup sounds delicious, I'm like you, always adding something, or leaving something out.
Those face cloths are lovely.

Love the washcloth pattern. I veered off my knitting course this past weekend and pull out my crochet hook....I might have to look at your pattern :). Now I want to check out your soup recipe, thanks for the link.

I would like to know the pattern on the picture that was posted. It looks very attractive. I would like to try it.

I love soup. I love lentil soup, but as I am the only one in the house who likes lentils, I've never actually made any. *sigh* For comfort I do love potato soup. I just wing it with some spuds and broth and whatever else I've got. Yams, or carrots, or leeks are nice in it, too. Mash it up when it's cooked, add milk and seasoning. Sometimes it's good with coconut milk instead, and a bit of curry powder

Oh dear...... are your sister's husbands "man parts" that bad?! Maybe you could crochet him a couple of man part sized washcloths so that he has some of his very own?

I have a big ol' soup recipe book here at home with me - I'll hunt out some for ya!

Cheers also for the link - you didn't have to do that but thank you so much anyway - I truly appreciate that - very kind indeed!

Now I need to go and take my mind out of the gutter and away from thinking about man parts...........

Those washcloths are lovely! I just added them to my Rav queue. Thanks for the inspiration.
