Knitting notebook & model

I finished my first hat last night. Todd so graciously modeled it for me. It came together very nicely and much easier than I thought. The knitting count stands at 4 scarves, 2 dish clothes, and 1 hat. I also started a knitting notebook last night where I can keep track o my projects, the yarn and patterns I use. Notes to self- be more conscious of the yarn type and colors for the project. This is a little loose and doesn't have much elasticity plus the color is an odd limey green. Don't fall for the soft and cute any more!

Goaty Goaty

We have loads of new baby animals on the farm here are pictures of Isabelle and 1 of our mama goats and her 2 kids, Oreo and Midnight June. We also have baby lambs, baby chickens, baby ducks, a baby goose and ofcours cows and to pigs. If my grandpa Staudt could see me now he would just laugh!















At Neumann Farms we also planted our 5 acres of pumpkins this weekend. It went amazingly well and we got done just in time for the rain. We took Isabelle last night to check things out in the garden. no pumpkins or squash had sprouted yet but but lettuce is ready. I cannot wait for a BLT from the garden.
Kitting Update, 4 scarves and 3/4 of a hat. We will see how it turns out!
