YARN ALONG WITH GUEST BLOGGER EMERSON

" I am beginning to learn that it is
   the sweet, simple things of life
   which are the real ones after all."

Hi, I am Emerson and I wanted to share
my knitting with you today.

I am staying with my Olie [Long O : Lee],
Pappy and Uncle Alex while my mom,
and Daddy are in Charleston for a few days.
On Monday I asked my Olie to teach me
to knit  because I always see her knitting
and I wanted to learn.

Even though she is left handed  and I
am right handed, we finally got it worked
out, Olie put the yarn on the needle for me
and I knit each stitch. I keep saying the
knitting poem and that helps me a lot.
I am knitting a blanket for my horses.
I think knitting is fun!

My Olie is working on a hat for me, it
is a test pattern for Mrs. Ginny. My Olie
wanted to knit it in purple yarn to match
the pullover she is knitting me,  but I
picked red because it is one of my favorite
colors.

Together we are reading Little House in the Big Woods,
and we both like it a lot.

We had fun sitting outside in the shade knitting and
reading, but it was a little hot and then it started
to thunder so we ran back to the house.

Thank you and goodbye!
