i missed spinning saturday as i was "moonie cramping monster" and didn't want to go in public. i had good intentions-birdsong and i had plans to drive together as she never has a saturday off. i had to cancel.
on her way into town she dropped this by my house-totally made my day.
and then later my little neighbor morgan(turning 12 this april) bought this for me at an estate sale.
too cute eh?i finally finished the commissioned vest for finn. yea!
i don't think i will finish my st. paddy's day shawl in time-oh well. here it is so far.
my afghan dilemma has taken a turn-i made a total of 6 4X4 squares-not gonna happen. too many ends to sew in. what was i thinking??? so i thought i would try to make a bigger square that is the size of 4 small squares. this just might work.
i have been spinning some of the new fiber i got at stitches-lovin this colorway. what to make with it-or shall i sell it? dilemma.
i'll leave you with another stitches score- nature's palette-a naturally dyed merino yarn-i bought for a beautiful lace shawl. the color name is "odd duck" fits me perfect. i bought the last of it. the fiber artist is dying no more of it. it's a beautiful blue with green spots in it.
thank you all for the little things in life-a letter, an email, a thought, a small gift or just being there for me. thank you thank you thank you-you are so special to me.

i can't believe somebody stole my idea for lip balm! wow, isn't it great to have such wonderful friends who know how to make your day? i love the new handspun, mmm, mmm, mmm, you are making me want to learn to spin, or at least get on with my knitting projects a little quicker. the colors are amazing, and i know they are even better off screen, from experience! i'm afraid i probably would have a hard time tackling all those ends in the afghan, too. the larger square seems like a much better idea, that is for sure!
Odd Duck indeed! Nice poopy balm too.
That lip balm cracks me up! Love the banjo and handspun too!
