"Nuttin but knittin" - that says it all, with an occasional deviation into the real world.

A keen observation.....

I finished this shawl early this morning:


Unblocked shawls are such a sorry sight!  Anyway, it's now blocking.....project done.....nothing on my needles.  Should I start a pair of socks? - No.  Should I start a spin? - No.  I'm waiting for yarn to be delivered - hopefully with today's postal delivery.  It's a commissioned project - and I want to start on it immediately, (And I'm a one at a time kinda gal, if you will remember). 

So....I've made a discovery.  If I didn't knit or spin, I would have a much cleaner house!  I don't have to worry about that in this lifetime - but now I know what a person does if they are the type with really no hobby.  Even with the diversion of the eagles, and a good book.....I am still going a little batty today and I have actually been cleaning house!!!!  Yikes!   But ....what do I hear.......it's the postman!  YAY!  By - gotta run!

A commissioned project? How cool is that! Can't wait to hear more. Thanks to you, I've got the eagles back. Something happened to the link I had and it quit working right after I saw that it snowed last night. Did you get snow too? My sis did in MN.

Yes, do tell. Can you still share if it's commissioned? I tell myself all the time my house would be cleaner if I had no hobbies, but have decided the hobbies are WAY more fun!

Your Japanese Garden shawl looks very pretty and will be well received by the recipient. Nice!
