Christmas in January...hat for Mom

I know...it's almost February...and I still have five Christmas presents at my house...at least I did get one to Lori. Well, I sort of got one to Lori...I still have her purse to make. sigh...With Mom going in and out of Stanford for the last three weeks, life has been hectic. I try to go over for the Doctors' rounds everyday...I usually stay until 2 unless Mom has a procedure or I want to talk to the doctors again...so, my crafting has been limited...

Luckily, I made this bracelet for Lori before Thanksgiving...isn't it cute? She likes blue...it's mother of pearl bases with really pretty blue cabochons. Lori met me at the Stanford Shopping Center for lunch, (after my visit with Mom). We had a nice lunch and did a little "retail therapy". Look what I found at Lucy...a purple army knife...perfect!

One of the things that I have been working on at the hospital is a hat for Mom. Her original procedure (which was suppose to be an outpatient procedure), has caused her hair to fall out...so, I knitted this hat for her. It didn't come out like the pattern...so, I had to "doctor" it up with some ribbon and etc. Jordan was not that happy to be my model...but, I told him it was for Grandma!
