Santa, I want interchangeable knitting needles

I would love to get a set of interchangeable knitting needles. It would be great to have so many needle choices in one set. I made a case for the needles I have and it is full, but my sister-in-law is learning how to knit so I will probably pass most of those needles on to her if I find a set. I have a few hiya hiya circular needles and I love them also I have 1 addi circular and it is nice too. I think I would be happy with just about any set. I have been looking around hoping that I will find a good set.
I have let my DH know that I would like to have a nice set for Christmas but I am hoping that I can find some at a good price online. Wish me luck. :0)

It's Fall Ya'll!

It's getting cooler and the leaves are starting to change. This is the time of year when I really get motivated to knit something new. I just finished an adorable baby sweater for my new nephew that is on the way. Now I am looking for something new to get started on. I love Ravelry.com and there is a endless sea of patterns to choose from, it is just hard for me to choose which one I am going to get started on. My daughter said she would love a sweater. It would be the first sweater for me, I usually stick with small projects. We will see.

It's been a long time!

It has been a long time since I have posted anything. I am so excited! today I found a LYS close to me. It is a nice little shop and has a nice owner, Karen. It was so nice to meet you Karen. I look forward to going in and meeting other people in my area that like to knit and knitting with them.

I am working on a pair of stormy purple Maizy socks. I am using the basic 9" hiya sock pattern from their website. Today I bought some light pink sock yarn and I am looking for a easy pattern for something fancy looking, like a lace pattern. I always just make a basic sock so I don't have to think much. I like the feeling of just knitting almost mindlessly, it is very relaxing but I think I am ready for a change. So if anybody reads this and has a suggestion please feel free to let me know. Thank you.
