I just returned from a road trip to Colorado. It was the perfect break -- lots of knitting and reading. Add a few naps and it was heaven. I completed my first set of wristlets. What do you think?

| knitted in the round - love these! |
A few of you mentioned that my doodly bird would make a cute stamp -- so I've drawn the doodly bird for the swap. I've been busy coloring them in. So, mine will be simple but made from the heart.
Peace,
Kay

What a good idea to use your doodley birds on your ATCs. Nice job with the knitting; the yard is very pretty. Happy WOYWW from Laura #130
...fabby wristlets and loVe your doodly birds they look sooo cute, your trip sounds like it was just the tonic...thanks for sharing...Mel :)
I do like your idea of random numbers, I start at the beginning and the end and try to work up from there, but mostly miss those in the middle, not a great way to do it I know. Your birds are sweet. Love the wristlets, they are really popular here in the UK. Happy WOYWW, Anne #18
Hey is that one of my Doodly Birds that has escaped across the water.

Love the wristlets. I so admire knitters. I just can't get the hang of it... and I've been taught three times!

Ooh! Love the wristlets. I keep telling hubby that I want sleeves (like longer wristlets). They would be perfect for when the air conditioning gets too cold for bare arms and its still too warm for a full on sweater. He probably just rolls his eyes. The ATCs are looking good. I confess to not getting mine together yet. Its on the short list of things to do. Luckily I have the next 5 days off... playtime! If I get sick (what happened the last few times I've days off) someone is going get a whupping. Dunno who yet, but there will be full on violence!
Hi Kay thanks for the visit.Erin loved her stool and the doll that went with it.
your ATC's are looking good, I will definately be swopping next week. wristlets look very pretty colours

Your mini holiday sounds wonderful...oh I could use one of those right now.
Colorado sounds like one to include on my list to visit.
The wristlets look great and those little doodle birdies are so cute.
Thanks for sharing and popping over to my place earlier.
Happy WOYWW ~ enjoy! Neesie #11

Simplest is so often the best :) I like your ATCs very much! I simply haven't had the time recently to create stuff so that's why I'm doing the giveaway instead! Great knitting btw, lovely colours.

Love the colours of the wristlets and those doodly birds are cute! x Jo #57
Thank you so much for stopping by. If you do try digital collages, you don't need any fancy programs: I do mine in Word and Pages (on Mac). Nothing fancy about that!
Your bird is gorgeous. And never downplay the joy of simplicity. In art it's a powerful force.
cheers,
rachel
Fabby wristlets!!!! your wee bird is just Gorgeous.. love it!! Happy WOYWW.. Hugs May x x x#30
Hi there lovely knitting and ATC's. I do so want to join in but am so behind with doing anything for it. Gald you had a break away - it looks and sounds fab. Would love to visit someday. Thanks for visiting me. Anne x
Love your doodly bird, so cute! Thanks for sharing and belated Happy Woyww : ) Liz at 131 x
Your doodly bird is awesome! Now, are you a papercrafter who dabbles in knitting or a knitter who dabbles in papercrafting? Or some mystical perfect mixture of the two!? :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog and admiring my bows/sassy embellies...I hope you get a craft room soon. And pegboard, too! :)
