Auntie Nettie's Merchandise 2017 - Taking Heart cont'd

Sometimes it is okay to take a unfinished project that was started for a loved one, made with love, to show your love, and then use it to spread some love.

After three years as a UFO, it was time to unravel it and let it go. 🏳 of defeat. I surrender!

(Sorry baby niece who is no longer a baby niece.)

Layers of Snow

I'm getting to the point where these are the only kinds of snowflakes I like.

At least they keep me warm.

Last night it was 0.

ZERO.

I am just grateful it's not in the negatives.

The wind is though.

BRRRR.

Remember that January three years ago when I was kayaking in Utah and it was in the 60s?

 

 I was wearing flipflops in the red sands and walking barefoot down the dock.

 Or hiking in shortsleeves in the sun?

 Even if the edge of the trail was too close for my comfort?

Actually, I'm beginning to forget. 

I think I need to plan a winter trip to southern Utah - for 2016 ...

Sigh. ARGH!

That's TOOOOOOO far away.

Is it spring yet?

Auntie Nettie's Attic Merchandise 2013 - October

After a relatively quiet crafting period, I got four little blankies done in a very short period of time. It seems I can either craft, read, blog, have a social life, but I can't seem to do a combination of these things - unless I'm on a roadtrip and I can crochet while someone else is driving. Case in point, October's roadtrip to the Cape with Mom...

All of these are made of four (4) skeins of Plymouth Yarns, Dreambaby DK, acrylic and nylon.
