just tying up the
loose ends of the week
both emotionally and yarn-wise.
i’m not back up to speed on living in full color yet,
but shades and tones are creeping back onto my radar.
and it always feels good to put the finishing touches on something
a few days pre-deadline.
then there’s time to set it aside for a few days,
coming back with a clear mind for any final edits before
it heads off to other hands.
safe travel little idea come to life. be well.
wool and solitude go together well for me.
i like to knit
in the dusky quiet hours
just after my kids
fall asleep.
i like to knit in bright
noisy rooms as well,
but there is something
about knitting alone
that i find extremely peaceful.
so when
this morning’s sun turned to afternoon rain
and my youngest
decided to play contentedly
with his trains,
i sat myself down
near a window
and had a little knit.
solitude wool is new to me,
i fell almost instantly in love with their artisan yarns.
this is the kind of yarn that as i pick it up i am moved by how
suddenly connected i feel to the sheep
who wore it first.
a new project
started in such sweet fiber
on a bright grey
afternoon
couldn’t help but make
me smile.
see that
was just what
today was missing.
