Knitting Dragonflies

Sandhill Cranes Indiana Migration Stop Over Photo by Robert Long Thanks!! Sometimes I forget how pretty it is in my own backyard!   Get your knitting needles out and go to it!

Not doing much but taking care of the recovering dog at this point, and the usual necessary things like work. I did buy an E -reader , it was a spontaneous buy, I had some bonus money that I hadn’t used and was in Borders Books. I am always carrying books around and thought “what the heck?”. I love it, and now can’t imagine doing without it. Hundreds of books in a very small space that can be taken easily anywhere. I looked at them before but thought I would miss having the “book” in my hands. Well there is still knitting, spinning and watercolor books to buy, more room on my shelves for them. I have also begun spinning again. Every time I start spinning again, I wonder at how much I enjoy it, and why did I stop? The fleece is a BFL, a lovely dark brown, I was drawn to it because the color was quite dark, and I thought that unusual. I love the way it spins up. A pound is enough for me to really make something with it (I hope). It is  enough fiber to keep me busy for quite a while

Thanks to The Quilter, I realized in time that Bloglines is ending Oct 1st. If you need to export your blogs to another aggregator she gives excellent instructions, (hers are to export to Google) I’m back to spinning, more on that later, I feel my inactivity leaving me, thank goodness! All of our energy has been taken up with taking care of Syd, and his horrid scar. (see previous post for his Mast cell cancer story) I tell him scars on guys just make them more ruggedly handsome. He doesn’t seem convinced yet.
