HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

   Hope everyone has a Happy Mother's Day. 

Maybe you will receive some yarn for your stash...

I have decided to take the bull by the horns and finally learn to knit continental style. My fingers just don't want to cooperate. I must have 10 thumbs, but I am going to stick with it..... Maybe a glass of wine will help!

Stitches West

I wasn't lucky enough to be able to get to Stitches West this year, but I will be there next year.  Had to make a trip to the LA Religious Ed Congress and of course they fell on the same weekend.   I have heard so many great things about it this year.  I can't wait for next year to come......

Laura Nelkin Designs

This is one of my favorite designs by Laura Nelkin.  It is the Skywalker Shawl.  You can either purchase the pattern from her website as well as from Ravelry, or you can take her Crafty class "Mastering Lace Shawls" and it is the first project you knit.  Crafty has great classes and they are so helpful.

Clarus Shawl

I just finished this shawl for my sister's birthday.  The Clarus Shawl is designed by Laura Nelkin. I am happy with the way it came out and it is on its way to my sister. 

My First Blog

This is my first attempt at a blog so please be patient with me.  I am a Knitaholic and love to squish yummy yarns.  I live in beautiful California though originally from Pennsylvania.  I will be putting up pictures of current WIP projects as well as finished.  Please feel free to share yours as well.  This was a scarf that I made for my daughter-in-law.  Her favorite color - Of Course Orange....
