This, my dear friends and to all that are looking is what spring apparently looks like in Maine this year. This was taken at 6:30am this morning after a storm dropped 8+ inches on us poor Mainers last night. Spring must have forgotten that it had already sprung! :) Good thing I have my (finally!) completed butterfly socks to keep me warm! What's the weather like in your neck of the woods?

*Sigh* @>----

I could not be married to a better man. Not only does he do the, no lie, 6 loads of laundry (eep! think of what it'll be like when we have kids!) sitting around the house while I worked this weekend, BUT he also remembered that my favorite green cozy armchair socks from Weekend Knitting that I (accidently) tossed into the hamper were hand wash only and would felt beyond recognition if washed, so he pulled them out. Isn't he great?

Happy Easter!!!

This is how much God loved the world: He gave His Son, His one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in Him, anyone can have a whole, lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending His Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. *John 3:16-17 Message Translation*

It is so nice....

to finally be able to post pics! After my old digital camera died a horrible death (shutter wheezing out its last digital breath) I decided to get a new one to chronicle all my knitty capers. One fantasic find on ebay with less than a minute left to bid (thank God for DSL!!) and my new digital camera was delivered by my trusty UPS man today! I hope ya'll enjoy my WIPs. I am finally done being mad at my butterfly sock for not picking up its own gusset stitches and am finally ready to start work on it again. Meanwhile I have been ordering yarn like mad, my last purchase being some beautiful silver grey silk off of Colourmart.com...... I must stop going there but how can you pass up 1500 yds of silk for $16 shipped? Oh well!

 

The prettiest shawl in the world! This is Cobweb by Magknits.com done in my beautiful black and silver bamboo bought for a song on etsy.com
