In all their glory

It was wash day at my house. Nothing makes me happier than this pile of pure handknit love. Have you ever seen such a lovely and colourful sight? Sigh.

Ugh!!

I have too many projects on the needles right now!! And all I want to do is cast on more. I think it’s the heat. These triple digit days have fried what was left of my pea brain. I have told myself I must finish two projects before casting on any new ones. Which two? [...]

Done! Done! Done!

Finally!! Shipwreck is done!!! And let me tell you, so hard to photograph!! It’s still on the blocking board (not dry yet, Dotty!) so hopefully tomorrow we will have a sunny day and there will be better photos. Here is a small montage for you… In the raw, soaking stage: cooking away: all done and [...]

Mayo, Mustard, let’s Ketchup!

Hey y’all!  I think we have this new blog under control.  At least it is here and one of us is blogging!  YEAH!  So, what all has happened since the last we spoke?  I have a couple finished projects, that unfortunately, you will have to see later because I don’t have pictures of those.  But, [...]
