Oh my - I missed a whole month!

I just noted the date on the last blog....just before New Years!  I missed wishing everyone happy Valentine's! Glad I remembered to change the theme to St. Patrick's or I would have never realized just how slack I have become.

I promise, I have lots of GOOD excuses.

I think a lot of you have been on Bev's site (One Yarn After Another) and noted that she is doing knooking upon occasion.  Well, she has me interested, so I am going to pursue this idea once I get a booklet from Rhonda's store on Etsy, Off The Hook Art.  I have tried it on my own, and although I know how to knit (but don't) I cannot understand how this works.  I have tried. I'm a dunce. 

However, I SHALL overcome.  I have a dream.........amigurumi by knooking. :o)

Another very lovely site.....

I was checking out sites and ran across yet another one that many of you may already know about.  I'm a tad slow on such things.

This is Sara London at her wordpress blog.  Her colors remind me a lot of Lucy.  She has some awesome patterns. She is writing a book - as are all great designers these days it seems.  When I looked through her photos I noted a pattern for a granny square top that one of my buddies at Ravelry had posted from a pattern on there....so she is around, and I haven't been paying attention!

Take a look at her site. The colors could cheer you up quicker than a holiday drink! ;o)   Below is one of her badges - if you do click on it on my site, it won't do anything! Just had to grab something colorful from there!

My Happy Corner

It is always good to have flowers on dreary days ... I so love the Christmas Cactus.  It's very delicate and colorful, and cheers up even the cloudiest day.

Wishing you and yours a very joyful and blessed New Year!
