YARN ALONG

Why did she make things?
Well, she enjoyed it, of course;
but it also somehow helped
her remember who she was
and where she came from

~ Aubon












 My Aise' is slowly growing,
a very easy pattern, nice to
pick up and work a few rows
after a busy day.

There are also socks on the
needles, such joy in my world.

Still reading Joan of Arc and
now understand why this was
Mark Twain's favorite book, it's
that good.

Joining Ginny.

  6. I have a few Joan of Arc books but not this one I don't think. I should look it up. And that looks like a very therapuetic knit you've got going there. The colours are wonderful :)

  14. Oh my, all of those little open loops - how delicate. Love the colors of the socks. I just took some pictures yesterday of some hardy kiwi tendrils reaching towards out into space - I love how they do that. I take it those are the Morning Glories you were pulling!
