Monkey's

So, I joined this group on Ravelry. There is a marathon in Tennessee every year, and it is Flying Monkey themed. Last year, I knitted up a monkey, with wings, and sent her off. She was so adorable. She was a Banana Fairy, her leotard was white and her tutu was yellow. She was stinkin adorable, I had a really hard time sending her off. All of the marathon winners, gets one of these monkey's with wings that we knit. And, for all my hard work, I get a great t-shirt out of it. Last year's shirt was Star Wars themed, and let me tell you, it was awesome! So awesome in fact, that I have to hid it from the Hubby. So, my goal this year, is to make more than 1, and try to figure out something cuter than what i did last year. It is a lot of fun, and I hear that all the winners thought they monkey's were a hoot.

Our First Day!

WELCOME! Margaret here! Today is our first day of business/blogging. Jennifer and I have been cut off from any yarn purchases from our husbands. Hence, we are Two Broke Moms. WE have decided that the only way to get yarn now, is to sell some of the things we make. I make dolls and other things and Jen knits baby things. Jennifer and I will both be writing here, so you should be overjoyed with our lives. I will start first. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am 36, and a mother of a 3 year old little boy, who we will call my Jedi Master. I knit and I sew. I knit a lot. My husband and i have been married for 9 years this June. Want to know what I want for my anniversary? Yarn. How sad am I? I made him a spectacular quilt. Just don't look too closely...there are a few mistakes. After I get it back from the quilter, my step-mom, I will post a picture of it.

I hope you enjoy our site. I hope that you will come here, and have a little giggle of the day, and that we will make it just a tad bit brighter. Did I mention we have NO idea what we are doing? Just thought you should know...
