Graves Gap Knitting: January 2014
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 20, 2014. The stash. Every knitter has one. It starts out innocently enough but then grows. And grows. It's all those leftover balls of yarn from projects, and yarn that you bought for something in particular but then you either don't get around to knitting it or the yarn just doesn't work out for the pattern. And it's that yarn that was on sale and well, you could use it for. And then there are the pretties that just jump in your basket at the yarn shop. What was I thinking? I consulted ...

Graves Gap Knitting: Mattie Lou's Gloves
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2014/02/mattie-lous-gloves.html
Saturday, February 15, 2014. Mattie Lou is my Grandmother's first cousin so I think that would make her my third cousin. At age 91, Mattie Lou is the last surviving member of her generation. And talking to her reminds me of talking to my Grandmother and Great-Aunt Flora. Mattie Lou drives, cuts a couple acres of grass, and works hard in her yard. And she's been fixing up her niece's house to rent or sell. By Churchmouse Yarns and Teas. Happily, Mattie Lou reports that she just loves them. Just thought yo...

Graves Gap Knitting: Snow Day in Alabama
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2014/02/snow-day-in-alabama.html
Thursday, February 13, 2014. Snow Day in Alabama. We're having a rare snow day here in middle Alabama and everyone is so excited! Hard to believe we had 5 inches! We have to enjoy it while we can because by nightfall, most of it will be gone except in the shady areas and higher elevations. I got to try out my new boots in the snow too! I bought them on deep discount last year and have been looking forward to wearing them. I'm happy to report they wore beautifully. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Graves Gap Knitting: Sunday Dessert - Blackberry Cobbler
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2014/06/sunday-dessert-blackberry-cobbler.html
Sunday, June 29, 2014. Sunday Dessert - Blackberry Cobbler. The blackberries are in season here which means it's time for all things blackberry at my house. Today, I decided to try a new recipe for blackberry cobbler. While I was mixing up the crust, my Dad was picking blackberries from his vines. They were still warm from the sun when he brought them in to me. This recipe is definitely a keeper. He ate two helpings at lunch today. 1/4 cup all purpose flour. 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Im doing some geneal...

Graves Gap Knitting: April 2014
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. This past Sunday was Homecoming at Calvary Baptist, the church I grew up in as did my Mother before me. My Mother and her parents were charter members so my roots are deep. It is the church where I first learned about Jesus, went to Vacation Bible School, and learned about missions. Homecoming is a day set aside, usually in the spring or fall, where families and past members come back to their home church for a special church service and a covered dish lunch. Some are still at ...

Graves Gap Knitting: September 2013
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 5, 2013. The Blanket of the Ages. After months of knitting and tracking down Noro #269, My Mitered Crosses Blanket aka The Blanket of the Ages aka THE Blanket is finished. Here it is with one of my Dad's tractors. I was getting ready to do photos on Sunday when he suggested that we do like Elizabeth does and hang it on the barn but only if I'd take a picture of the blanket with one of his tractors! So, Dad, here you are. And I'd like to do one without changing colors in the miter....

Graves Gap Knitting: Sunday Dessert - Lazy Day Cake
http://gravesgapknitting.blogspot.com/2015/05/sunday-dessert-lazy-day-cake.html
Sunday, May 31, 2015. Sunday Dessert - Lazy Day Cake. Today is a lazy day here at Graves Gap Knitting. For dessert today, I made what I call a Lazy Day Cake. Here's the recipe:. 1 box cake mix (I like Duncan Hines) made by the directions on the box except that I used a trick my Mother taught me - use milk instead of water. Trust me, it makes a difference. And I baked it in a 9x13 pan. Easy peasy. The icing is the recipe on the Domino's Confectioner's Sugar box:. 1 box confectioner's sugar. So nice to read.
