I have several projects that suitable to share this week. Enough work has been done on each that they are out of the blob phase. I was surprised when I pulled these projects together to see that they all sort of go together color-wise, and not one of the colors is blue! The stripey rectangle at… Continue reading A New Color Story Emerges

Frozen Ocean Air Scarf
Each time I crochet something I am amazed at how fast the project seems to go from "ball of yarn" to "finished"! On Wednesday I posted that I was going to start a new crochet project, on Wednesday night it was finished. When we woke up on Thursday morning, the snow had already started.

But it's pretty and totally my colors, blues-purples-grey. Aside from my bat shawl, this is the first project for which I have actually… Continue reading That Doesn’t Look Right (Until the End)
A little bit of everything.
Things are good in this little nutshell - busy, but good. On Sunday, I went up to Peacefulknitter's for a knitting potluck party. She is truly a "hostess with the mostess" - there was so much delicious food, lots of knitting, a yarn swap, yarn games and a yarn swap! Obviously there was a lot… Continue reading A little bit of everything.
