Smiling When I Can


Ever have a stretch of time that completely wears you down?

These past 5 months feel more like a nightmare than real life. You don't need to keep reading, I just need to vent a little & my therapist says blogging is part of my homework. 

On second thought, perhaps I'll just post a few pictures that have made me smile on occasion.

Yarn Mountain Sock Club


Around Christmas 2013 I joined Yarn Mountain's Sock Club. 
It's been so much fun & I've managed to knit several pairs of socks just for me. 
I don't have pictures of all of them on my phone, but here are a few...
March pattern- "Northern Lights" using Noro Silk Garden Sock Yarn. 



April's pattern- "Black Purls" using ToshSock sock yarn...



May's pattern- "Mardi Gras"...




I love them all! I'm trying to get caught up & am currently working on June's pattern
"Farmer's Market". I'm using Ellen Cooper's Yarn Sonnets this time. 
This picture was taken as part of a summer Scavanger Hunt. I had a lot of fun doing that this summer.
