That Was The Week It Was!

 Whew!  That was an interesting week!  Hubby was in another location while I held down the home front.  Our grandson and his bride took a vacation and I was in charge of their Great Dane for 5 days! She doesn’t like to be crated at night but will curl into a ball and sleep on the sofa.  Okay, I can deal with that.  She is crated if I leave the house to do errands. Our great grandson stayed with his Oma and they stopped by often to visit.  Couple days we went out to lunch. 

I was able to keep up with the daily Lent meditation by knitting each section of the scarf first thing I do; that is a blessing.  In the evening I’m knitting Glittering sock pattern by Stephen West.  

Been weaving too! Yep—just throwing the shuttle with my hand spun cotton thru that shed, until I look to see misses!  Unweave! Back to no skipped warp—investigate to find reason—guess I could leave it as a design element—NOT! 

March dishcloth pattern designed by Galene of Kitchen Sink Shop

Check out this sew along with fat quarter shoppe—free!!

Did some spinning as well to finish off a length of green cotton sliver.  That could be the last of green—certain optimistic! Because, fiber has been known to multiply secretly while stored away!  

I was right!  Walking into my fiber closet, look what I found!  Yes!  More green cotton sliver along with white cotton!  Shut the door and let it grow! 

Did get two bobbins of green cotton plied! 

Whatever you enjoy doing, be sure to enjoy each and every moment!
