A BEACH YARN ALONG

“All of us have in our veins the exact same percentage
of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and,
therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat,
in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when
we go back to the sea – whether it is to sail or to
watch it – we are going back from whence we came.”

~ John F. Kennedy

 

 [No sand dollars were harmed in the taking of these
   photos, I quickly took the photos and then put the
   sand dollars back in the ocean].

I have found for me the perfect
summer knit project, Water's Edge
by Cabinfour. 

With my temperature now reaching
100F and a heat index of 120F to me
the best place to be is at the beach.
One of my favorite beaches is Hunting Island
and I thought that would be an appropriate
name for my knit,  Hunting Island Shawl
since that is where I am spending a lot
of my time.

I am using The Fibre Co. Meadow in
Bluebonnet to knit the body of my
Hunting Island Shawl and I will be
using Knit One, Crochet Too's Cria Lace
in light teal for the border.

All the light we cannot see is still on my
night stand, but in my beach bag is Hissy Fit,
a light reread just right for the beach.
