behind and ahead and inbetween

on sunday, the 9th,

i asked an ‘do you know what this is?’ question.

lickety-split, brenda guessed right over on facebook.

not long after, samm guessed right here on the blog.

you guys are so smart.

i was fascinated, but had no idea at all what it was until i read

the ‘good karma farm’ tag.

that’s the ‘behind’ part (as in i’m behind on giving the answer).

on tuesday, not quite so long ago, classic elite yarns let me

guest post on their blog.

i’m always happy for an excuse to write.

i do so love the process of getting my feelings wrangled

into solid form.

now, for the ‘ahead’ part.

tomorrow a new hat pattern of mine will be released.

a couple of weeks ago (here we go back again),

my daughter took photos of that hat and me.

the graphic pop of her shots i just love.

i didn’t realize until aftewards

how the details of

the hat got

lost.

in the end it works out well, because now i can show you these as

a sneak peek a day early.'hita' collage for fbi also just made this the new header on my facebook page.

if we aren’t friends over there already, let’s fix that right now.

i’m very friendly (smile).

so interesting to spend saturday

at one of my old colleges (i skidded through 4 before landing)

for the homecoming weekend festivities.

we, my teenager and i, split our time between munro hall

(where an artisan gallery held works by various alumni)

and the pretty grounds in front of gardner hall (the admin building).

we also snuck in photo taking for two upcoming patterns.

can’t show you fully yet, but here’s a sneak peek

of the rest of the scene with the knitting cropped out.IMG_7061bloga beautiful day with just the right amount of cloud cover

to give us some fun artistic freedom with the pics.

i do love it when a plan comes together.
