But one of the things I meant to add is that my little rose bush, the minature one I have in my craft/sewing room, which is supposed to be a white rose bush, has a yellow one opening up! It’s so odd! All the others have been white and this one is definitely yellow.
Weirdness but it’s so great!
I found the free pattern at elann.com and joined a kal for making this at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AranWeightVictorianLaceShawlKAL/?yguid=958484 which also has a picture of the shawl.
And! I found some yummy colored yarn to make it in. http://www.herrschners.com/products/sku-711008id-3588tab-.html It’s the one on the top of the page, although I ordered it through Joann’s since it was cheaper there.
1. Finalizing plans for our knitting circle at work! We got permission to meet at the store on the first and third saturdays an hour before the store opens. So far it’s definitely Debra, Dylan and myself, but we’ve got interest from Heidi, Tiffany, Jennifer, and quite possibly Tonya, too. Tonya is the store manager as of the first of the month. I’m so excited! We’re going to do t-shirts and have them say Chicks with Sticks. Dylan is an art major and she’s going to design them.
2. The new Vogue Knitting. There’s a CUTE purple dress/jumper in there I just HAVE to make.
3. Battlestar Galactica. It’s back!
You give so much of yourself to us and make us all feel good about ourselves. You have encouraging words and wise advice, happy feelings and comforting touches. I hope your day is at least half as great as you make the rest of us feel.
