It's A Love/Hate Thing...

I love buttons.
I love seeing all the different ones out there...the right or wrong button can make or break a sweater you've worked so hard at.
I also have a favorite button shop I frequent online, especially when it comes to buttons for my niece and nephews!
Buttons By Robin is the name of the Etsy shop that I frequent. Her buttons are all handmade and are perfect for finishing off that latest project...
That's where I got these adorable bunny buttons to finish this sweater for Miss A...
I think she's going to look adorable in it!

P.S. I just read this post again this morning and realized that while I posted the Love part I didn't post the Hate part...so here goes;

I HATE SEWING ON BUTTONS
I LOVE HOW THEY LOOK ONCE THEY ARE ON

so there you have it the love/hate of it all.
i love the buying, matching, placing of the buttons
i hate the sewing on of buttons

Happy Wednesday!

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 ...

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...
