Hi,
I'm Cheryl and I am a 100% service-connected disabled veteran, and so is my husband Michael. Since I no longer work I need to keep busy with all this free time I now have. We share a beautiful home with Sir Angus Seton and Rita our two small dogs. After a 20+ yr. hiatus I picked up knitting again and I am having the greatest time making gifts for others and family. I will be taken classes to learn how to do lace knitting, cables and also socks I learned how to make them on my own!! I have many projects on many needles to keep me busy and when I get bored with one I can work on another. I am looking to learn how to spin and hope to start classes in the fall. Presently I have the following projects OTN: yarn; Spa Sox ~ D. Bliss Cashmerino; Mystery Stole 3 ~ Zephyr Lace yarn in Mahogany w/Czech Glass Beads in Red Rainbow color; Forest Canopy Shoulder shawl in Vintage Silk Maiden & Louisa Harding’s Grace. I just finished a shrug for my daughter’s 28th birthday. I used 3 balls of D. Bliss Soho in #9 Red, which is a silk, rayon and cotton yarn. I also make one of a kind jewelry using sterling silver and semi-precious gemstone beads. I also make stitch markers using Sterling Silver and Swarovski Crystals and other types of beads.

Welcome Cheryl! I recognize you from the SKC too :) Sounds like you've got your hands full with projects! That's me too..... We look forward to getting to know you during the swap and thanks for sharing!
Cheryl, welcome to the swap! It's nice having you here and your projects sounds like a huge work, but as well a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the welcome. I have already been scanning ebay for some awesome yarn to use for this project and also to gift my pal with! I know it may sound like a dumb questions but whta does SKC stand for. I suffered a head injury when in the Marines and I have slight brain damage. Hence the other reason for knitting it timulates the mind and makes the brain work!!
