YARN ALONG

A sensitive soul
sees the world
through the lens
of LOVE.











Before I share this week's
yarn projects I wanted to
give each of you the biggest
THANK YOU for all of
your sweet comments to
my guest blogger last week,
you all made a six year old
wee girl very happy, and
she says thank you too. I am
thrilled to say that she is
still practicing her knitting
each day and loves it. It
has been so thrilling to pass
on this love all of things woolie
to my first grand.
 
My knitting has taken a hit this
past week with other projects
needing attention, but I am
making progress on the pullover.
I need to knit the back ribbing,
the cowl and two sleeves, I'm
not sure I will have it done in
time before the move to Germany,
but I am going to try.
 
I finished the test knit hat I was
knitting, but realized I blocked
it a little big [I shouldn't have
used the mannequin head], but
I love how it came out and
have plans to knit another
Sunday Sweater to go along
with it.
 
My reading this week is super lite,
I am a huge Mary Kay Andrews
fan and Beach Town is the
perfect summer read, especially
when you are sitting on the
beach or laying in hammock
under the pecan trees.

  17. Emerson is so sweet. I love that color on her. Happy to read she's still clackin' away. I read this author recently, her book, Hissy Fit. I really liked it. It was good and a different kind of romance.
