Right Start for the New Year

Not a Book! But a CD!
We begin 2010 with new sock knitting patterns--an assortment from several different designers in fifty states. There is a promised KAL on Ravelry (Group is 50 Socks-50 States) as well from this collection of patterns.
You too can have this CD book by contacting the editor, Dr. Laura Andersson at Sirius Knitting

Passage

Here we go--we are passing into a new year. Before leaving this old year behind it's time to reflect. Reflections of sharing time with good friends, learning from them, laughing with them, crying with them. Reflections of the love of family; caring for each other; being there for any crisis or happiness.
Yes, we are passing through a tunnel into a new year. Here's the best to you and yours for a Happy New Year's Eve!

Good-bye! Hello!

It's time to say good-bye to 2009.........

And hello to twenty ten!

We will close out the year with one final handspun and hand knit item--Basket Whip Cowl as modeled here by 'Greenhead'.

Finished, complete! Now, we move onto other projects that are on the list. And maybe add new projects to those wips........

Christmas Day!

Happy Birthday, Baby Jesus!

Merry Christmas!!

The stockings are hung by the chimney with care in hopes that Saint Nick soon will be there.

Stressed?

Do you feel like these end threads of a sari? All jumbled up? Running around with no purpose to your madness?

'Welcome' to some stress relieve! Stop! Take a deep breath! and think about the reason for the season! Now, doesn't that feel better?

'Tis the Season

Whether it's serendipity at the shopping center when you come across a junior high band playing holiday music dressed in their finest;
Or a planned evening to hear Middle Ages Christmas songs performed by Kemper Crabb , there is something special about the Christmas season. Look for Kemper and his band in your PBS line-up. His special "Downe in Yon Forrest" features many interesting songs played with traditional instruments of the period. Or maybe, you find a live nativity scene on your local church grounds--complete with donkeys, sheep, cows and goats grazing peacefully as shepherds and angels attend the birth of the Christ child....... The season is definitely magic and alive with spirit of joy, peace and love.
