YARN ALONG

Between every two pines is a
doorway to a new world. 

~John Muir





 
 
 


 
 
 
 
One sleeve complete,
working on the second.
Finished the ribbing for
the body and now it's
on to the charts, working
two charts simultaneously,
a first for me.
Acer is a joy to knit and I'm
enjoying every stitch.
 
Reading Wild and dreaming
of hiking trips to come.

    I am always in awe of trees. They are majestic and one of nature's priceless gifts.
    I love that happy teal of the garment you're working on.

    Oooof. We had significant ice damage to my two oldest pine trees last night so your quote completely caught me. It's perfect. As always.

    Every time I see someone's Acer, I fall in love with that sweater all over again! Loved Wild ~ to challenge oneself in that way is amazing.

    ooh clever...knitting from two chart. I struggle with one! I'm working on sleeves to just simple ones.
    I hope that your hiking dreams come true.

    love, love, love the pinecones. I collect them. Do you?

    Your photos are inspiring, Tracey. My grown daughter is teaching the kids and me a basic photography class (just starting this week) via Skype. Hope to grow in this skill!

    Such a luxurious looking yarn...must feel wonderful slipping through the fingers. :)

    Love that quote...and the knits & images....swoon. You are a fast knitter!
    Wild is one of my favorite books- I picked it up the weeks after my father passed away- I would cry my self to sleep- it is SO good.

    I get lost in your photos, Tracey. You have a wonderful way of seeing. And, you live in a beautiful place!

    I am really looking forward to seeing your Acer when it's finished. The yarn and color are gorgeous. Everything I am knitting right now is green probably because the world around me is white.

    I read Wild last summer and loved it. Cheryl Strayed is such an honest writer. I dream of hiking one of the long trails some day.
