Knitting relaxes me. Here is more of what I have created since I took up knitting again last March.

Always Learning

Like the new title! I have being trying to think of something catchy that wasn't already taken. If it isn't new, oops and my apologies.

I find it amazing that I learn new things daily. I believe that when this stops occurring, I will probably be dead. However, I suppose I will learn a great deal in heaven (like the answers to all the yet unanswered questions). Anyway:

WHAT I LEARNED TODAY:
I am not a consistent journal'er or blogger. My intentions are good, but the follow thru is not. I think that is true in other parts of my life. Knitting however has been good for me, fairly quick gratification. Scrap booking works that way as well, but I think I need to print some pictures - it has been over a year since we got that digital camera!

Since that last post I have completed some more bibs, have only the last 1/2 of the hood on my wallaby and the toe of the left foot of the flip-flop socks. I know - need pictures!

This weekend I had a lovely time at Shepherd's Harvest with 6 gals I have gotten to know at Amazing Threads. It was sooo cool to see all the different stages of yarn, the different types, etc. I was especially intrigued by the silk hankies. Of course I had to purchase a few (along with the rest of the crew). The other thing I brought home to try was hand spinning (small wooden spindle vs. spinning wheel). Hindsight, I should have tried it there with someone experienced helping me, but, oh well. Another thing learned.
