YARN ALONG

I believe in the ocean curing all bad moods.
I believe in the waves wiping away worries.
I believe in seashells bringing good luck.
I believe in toes in the sand grounding my soul.

Lots of sock knitting in my world
these days, some with chevron's
some with stripes, the perfect
summer knit, especially when
you're sitting on the beach wave
watching and soaking in a few
sun rays.

I down loaded The Border of Paradise
after seeing it on several blogs. It is
a story told from several character's
view all of which are haunting, dark,
and totally masterful!

    1. The pattern is The Chevron Sock from the book, The Sock Knitter's Workshop.
      It's a 14 round repeat, very simple, but not boring.

  4. This is such a lovely post. I adore beaches -- so of course I live in a sea of Midwestern farmland. Thus, your pictures are much appreciated.
    I also noticed how well your projects matches the setting!

    1. Thank you Gail, you are so kind. My bag was a gift from my daughter, I think she picked it up at one our downtown shops.
