  • A Good Week For Yarn: Part 1

    Yes, it was that good!!  I'm going to need at least 2, maybe 3 posts to get it all in. Episode 1:  In which our knitter is approached over her coffee and ends up with a bunch of cool yarn… Continue reading

  • If You Give A Mouse A Cookie…

  • Hello Again

    I have been “absent” from my blog for a couple of weeks. As usual, it was due to a family situation. My Dad, who had been growing weaker over the winter, went into a decline. He died peacefully on March… Continue reading
