Cute Cloth....Weird Moon

This is the new pattern from KnittingKnonsense...it's the Wrapper Cloth. I thought it would be a cute gift for my mail carrier with a little bar of soap tucked inside. Don't look too closely at my bobble...he's a sad excuse for a bobble. I have never done them before and that part of the pattern was confusing to me...I kinda winged it and kept going. If I make more and I probably will, I will try to do a better bobble next time. lol
The pattern is available for free here...http://www.knittingknonsense.com/Wrapper_Cloth.html

Here is...as my Skaterboy would say...some "Moonage" for you. My sister called me on her way home from work yesterday and while we were talking she says that the moon looks really weird. Knowing that I won't pass up an opportunity to take photos, she explains that it looks to her as though there is something hanging down off the moon. So, when we finish talking, I grabbed my trusty little camera and head outside.

I couldn't see anything just looking up at the moon but I figured I would take a few shots anyway and see what happens. These are two of the photos I took last night. I have no idea what the little thing is at the bottom. But now at least I can see what she talking about. I took three photos total and it's there in a different little swirly shape in all three photos. Just a little something strange I thought I would share with you.

I hope you are all having a great holiday. I am now, unfortunately, nursing a yucky old cold. It's driving me nuts. It could be worse though so I won't complain. At least now I can relax and decide what I want to knit next...no pressure...no stress....aaahhhh.

Kinda looks like a ballon with a string hanging down. I can't sleep, so I started a pair of ruffle wristlets. For ME!!! LOL

WOW that is awesome, I wonder what it is. I know the other day Mars was under the moon and it looked so cool. Tonight it was hiding behind a cloud and looked like a werewolf moon.

Hugs!!!!

I made three of these wrapper cloths myself, in one day... they really knitted up fast, huh? I put gift cards in them for the Paster and the Elders of our church this year.

I can see making them in other then Christmas colors too for small gifts, like you did with soap, or even birthdays with gift cards, etc. I think this pattern is one of the mose amazing I've seen in awhile.

Now that moon, wow, what is that stringy thing, very weird.

Your wrapper cloth is really cute in stripes. Very nice!

That moon is very weird! It just looked huge here. We noticed it, too.
