The holidays nothwithstanding I have managed to get my act together and post some pictures of a finished piece. "Tip of the Tam" is a quick knit made with less than one skein of Ball and Skein's, Kashmir, a lovely blend of 80 % merino and 20% Mongolian cashmere and iridescent beads. It can also be knitted in Ball and Skein's Serena, Weatherfield and Arbori.The pattern will soon be available.

It's Dizzy Time

I wanted to post something for the last week and a half. Time is flying by and still I haven't finished all the have to's.

I've been up to much as of late with work and knitting and spinning. One of these days I will take pics of some of my fiber work and show you that I have something to show for my absence from the blogosphere.

I've got a couple of neck wear items I've been working on in the pattern design area. Naturally, holiday gifts are being knitted, and I'm sworn to secrecy about those. After the holiday celebration I can post about those. I've also begun a new vest in some of my handspun yarn about which I'm really happy.

Tonight I'm headed off to a holiday get together with some of my high school buds. We got together last October to celebrate our 40th high school reunion and thought we would get together more often to celebrate. What a great idea!!! None of us has to prepare for the get together since we are meeting at a local restaurant to celebrate the holiday season. My kind of "do."
