Life Is Good!

“Life is good, for the vast majority of us, when we see all the good in our life, first, before the negative. Life is good when we can recognize the good in other people, first, before the negative. Life is good when our lenses for looking at the world are trust, respect, compassion and genuine love.”

Yep!  Life is good when I finished my heart socks in time for Valentine’s Day!  Then I immediately cast on another pair—especially after I saw this Stephen West pattern!  Wish I wasn’t so tempted?
These socks!! Perfect with the Glittering shawl I’m knitting on (slowly)!   Just loved the texture features—fun to knit—stash diving I came across this yarn (very well aged) 

Malabrigo sock yarn!  I’m off and running, only I didn’t read instructions right—should be a knit row after each k2,p2 rows—oh well—life is good & I’m doing it my way! 

Reflection time—should have started day one of Lent knit along.  I just can’t decide on yarn to use.  I would like to use my handspun; just which grouping: 
Or

Or

I’m leaning to this one; it will need some yarns plied—should be enough to take us through the complete project too.  But, the ones above would be perfect as well. 
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions 
Almost, yes almost ready to end the Musselburgh hat.  What fun it has been.  Will need to do other hat patterns or my fingerless mitts. 
Life is good!  Just winging my senior days along.
