Busy...

But my shop sample for So Much Yarn in downtown Seattle is complete and ready for delivery!
Yarn is Berroco Ultra Alpaca
Size 10 needles
Very Cozy!

I'm wearing it now since my office clearly has the air conditioning turned on in it! Brrrrr.

Need to make another one for me!

I really like the cowl pattern, looks great, I used to have an office like that.
Saying Hi to you from Bothell/Kirkland we are off to Home Goods in Lynnwood (Thank you for the heads up) Joanne fabrics and Big lots with DIL, we have fun shopping trips, her first to Home Goods.

Ok Tell us what the pattern is.

Pattern is Faraway, So Close. A shawl pattern by Carina Spencer.

Don't forget Hobby Lobby...I've never been to home goods. I just recently heard about it!

Oh Shoot I forgot to take her there. We have them, the one we have the yarn is very so-so, but the other stuff is great!
Home Goods is still being shopped out, they cannot keep up with the demand yet. I chatted with the clerks and watched and as soon as they stocked people were filling their carts. I suggest if you go on a weekend go as soon as they open. Today we are heading into Redmond BF and Costco(Kirkland) and then they are off to Salish Lodge for an overnight and we get to babysit our 1 1/2yr old Granddaughter.
They liked Big Lots too, but I didn't find any great yarn in Lynnwood. JoAnnes was for fabric ideas for decorating.
If we check our Hobby Lobby I will give you info, it should be great though, ours is huge.
I love spending time with my DIL.
Will check out the pattern thankyou.

I go to Hobby Lobby all the time. If you are looking for a good yarn selection try Great Yarns (Everett) So Much Yarn (Seattle, north of pike place market above cost plus imports. Or Pacific Fabrics in Everet has a small but excellent selection of yarn. Have fun babysitting!

it's gorgeous!! I hear you about air conditioning being a totally valid reason for knits like this in the summer. Great colour!

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

Life in the Time of Covid

I have officially been working from home. Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June. May the odds be ever in our favor for July. Naked Gnome, Tiny Island, Unicorn tiny cat octopus. one of my favorites fried eggs. Seriously how can you not be in love with these guys Ragnar by special request of my husband who is watching Vikings Tiny Parrot. Need to make another and send it to my nephew Ragnar likes the squirrel and dino Ragnar thinks this tiny cat is an attach tiger but it's just a cat. Sumo still waiting for his opponent Parrot meet Dragon *Drago ...
