Some January RIFFing | 1.12.24
It has been a relatively quiet week here... Steve was back to "regular" work hours (whew!) and I found the time to knit myself to "fresh" yarn (as Carole so brilliantly put it!) on the Great Cabled Cardigan! And I have been having great fun "unpacking" my word for the...
Expanding Full | April 2022
