well, now.
Sometimes, when you blog, you get what you wish for.
Katherine, with her laceweight sitting in front of her, spun from a merino roving I provided for the spin-to-scarf exchange, decided to grant me a wish (we were informed who we were spinning for late in June so she had the privilege of fine-tuning her contribution to the exchange).
I am so tickled at her thoughtfulness.
It is really the perfect little oasis.
The end of summer is also providing me with a tiny little holiday (it’s been a busy time over the last several months, with many curves thrown in for variety). Hubby and I are taking off over the weekend - not very far, but one doesn’t need to go terribly far when you live next door to Lake Huron. The goal is a nice dinner out, some quiet motel knitting time which doesn’t involve one eye on the three or four other ‘boy’ things going on peripherally, and breakfast - I scored up a restaurant with Benedict on the menu (which is up there on my list of very favourite eats).
Simple things but sometimes, the simplest of things make the crazy feel, well, not so crazy.
It won’t be a long holiday - I’m now committed on Sunday mornings. I never would have thought it, but I’ve been convinced (by another local knitting blog reader) to return to the bench of a Casavant Freres. Who’da thought.
