Seedling………

The yarn for my sample knitting arrived yesterday! I of course ripped the box open, looked at all of it, and before I knew it the swift and winded were out and this lovely green for seedling was being made into my yarn cake! So far so good. Right now we've made a stop at a Starbucks after buying opening night tickets to the Mariners and I thought I would take advantage of the free Wi-fi to show ya'll a picture. Since I get paid in yarn I am thinking I want just a lot of this green right here!
So we are off back home in 2 minutes to do laundry, bake pumpkin bread and work on seedling and hopefully finish a good bit of this hat…
happy Sunday!
Xoxo
P.S.
7 years ago when our first boxer Baily was alive her, D and I planted some daffodils. They don't come up every year and most years it's just one flower that blooms but yesterday I looked out my kitchen window and there were two they just magically appeared. It's little things like this that make each day special.

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...

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!
