Unraveled Wednesday | 10.16.19
By the time you read this, I will be in the process of picking up the stitches around the neck of my Tegna. It still looks like a bright pink fluffy blob, so no photos until it has been finished and blocked! However, the turn in the weather brings a great desire to...
Sometimes Monday | 10.14.19
Comes on the heels of a lovely, quiet, solo weekend! Sadly, Steve had to work all weekend so what was a girl to do but get in some major knitting time and I made some impressive headway on my Tegna! The back is finished and I am moving right along on the front and...
Photographic Overload Friday
Today I am sharing my brief, but spectacular trip to Michigan in photos! It was a whirl-wind weekend, packed full of so many good things! Monday's sunset was truly amazing, but boy was I happy to get into my own bed! And that, my friends, brings...
Unraveled Wednesday | 10.9.19
Hello Unravelers! I am back from my whirlwind trip to Michigan – the weather was practically perfect. Although there was a bit of rain on Saturday afternoon, but that did not hinder any plans we had! More about my weekend on Friday! It felt like I did not knit at all...
Looking Back | September 2019
September was an incredible month...there was baking, and the first day of school, and so many amazing skies (most of which were captured on my morning walks!) and there were good sips, Pilates, Sherman, and a new do! One thing struck me in...
Unraveled Wednesday | 10.2.19
The blocking is finished, although I was quite unsure about exactly how to block Reagan. In the end, I just blocked the lace, leaving the sleeves, back, and neck unblocked. I used blocking wires and t-pins and I think that worked. I love how incredibly soft the...

We know that in September, we will wander through the warm winds of summer's wreckage. We will welcome summer's ghost. — Henry Rollins The weekend days were indeed summer-like, warm and breezy. Even the pop-up storms we had Saturday night had a summer-like quality to...
TGIF | 9.27.19
This last full week of September just raced by, didn't it? It was a week of crisp mornings that gave way to warm days. Yesterday morning there were some brief rain showers and even though I did not "feel" like going for a walk I did, and it felt so good when I was...
Unraveled Wednesday | 9.25.19
No update photo of Black Hole Lace this week, but yes… that is the last ball of Lopi!! Yes, I have made some progress – really significant progress because I just have roughly 3 inches more of the lace to knit and then I move on to the finishing bits of the sweater!...
Moving Focus | September 2019
Joining with Juliann today to share how I did with my word in September. It was a good month, perhaps the best month yet for my focus. At times it felt like I was moving at a snail's pace, but if you watch a snail – even though it moves slowly, it does move, and so...

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. – Albert Camus The weekend had a deliciously summery feel, that is if you just considered the temperatures and not the light – because the light was most decidedly fall! But the days were warm and sunny! But joy...
Friday Thoughts | 9.20.19
Looking at the calendar, I am filled with the deepest sadness that September is almost over. How the heck did that happen??? I have been savoring these days, but I can't ignore the changes am seeing more and more of every day! Things like it is now dark when my alarm...
Unraveled Wednesday | 9.18.19
I feel like I have fallen into the black hole of knitting…. It feels like I have been knitting lace forever yet I still have 7-ish inches to go. Grrrr!!! So, yesterday I took a lace knitting sanity break and started Halloween Legging Swatching! After a few trials and...

Happy Monday everyone! I hope your weekend was one that was full of all the things you needed, and you are ready to tackle a new week! “One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries.” – A. A. Milne This weekend...
Friday Thoughts | 9.13.19
Nine months into 2019 and we have our first Friday the 13th of the year…(and there is only one more in December). We have rain in the forecast for tomorrow but I am hoping that the skies will allow for some Harvest Moon viewing! The moon was spectacular last night! I...
Unraveled Wednesday | 9.11.19
September Unraveling is going well… and with no unraveling to date! I have indeed finished Reagan's sleeves and have begun the lace work, although the sweater looks like a great grey blob right now! As I write this, I am completed the first repeat of the pattern and...
Make it Monday | 9.9.19
The "list-free" weekend was truly restful – although, on Sunday we did get some much needed yard work done! We did a bit of culling of the dying plants from the pots on the patio - the coleus was getting pretty leggy and were dropping leaves thanks to the spate of...
Friday Thoughts | 9.6.19
I have been spending a good bit of time thinking about how to reinvigorate me as I contemplate my blog. I keep circling back to the less is sometimes so much more concept as I have contemplated this space. I know that we all have a finite number of minutes during the...
