Bring in the new !!

Had to go to the yarn shop today
Had to have some new yarn
have ta
gotta
did it
DONE!

Do you like my choice? the picture doesn't show the true color of the yarn.
It is a medium brown. 34% Hemp, 41% cotton and 25% Modal
I just may cast on tomorrow for that cute tunic top, should I do it in the round or piece by piece??

Say bye bye.....

I have been trying to stay away from starting anything new, due to knitting gifts that I was wanting to finish by a certain date.......well we all know how THAT goes....I hate when I over commit.

So I cut back, cut short and pulled the PLUG!

The recipients won't miss what they never knew they were maybe gonna get!

Do you know how bogged down I was feeling??

Whew...the weight has been lifted off...

released...........now it's floating away........
Here is a pile of knitting that is gonna grow up some day soon and become a gift for a graduate....

What is missing in this picture?????

Well, It's ME !!!!!!!!


I want some Palm Trees !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I see Palm Trees, I feel comforted, warm, soothed by the sun and I know that a snazzy hotel is close by! And surely there is a body of water somewhere for me to stick my toes in. Maybe a cute little gecko is hiding just waiting for me. Beautiful birds are singing and fluttering about.

This interim between Winter and Spring is pure torture for me. One day the sun is beaming and I can sit outside and absorb the glorious rays, then the next day is cloudy and cold with a bruising wind gusting from the North. This is just rotten 'tude from Mother Nature! And I will not have it !!!
