So good!<br />Thanks about the knitting. It is fun... I just finished the first three inches of that ribbing last night. Looking forward to starting the pattern!Dawn Suzettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09483805832809961369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-85436772402192079502013-03-29T10:43:59.590-03:002013-03-29T10:43:59.590-03:00Thank you :)Thank you :)lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07754586762141365467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-81930524763908299842013-03-29T10:07:44.358-03:002013-03-29T10:07:44.358-03:00your knitting is lovely and isn't it fun to sa...your knitting is lovely and isn't it fun to savor a project?

I think it is the kind of book you would need to identify with to "get." <br />Girlmore Girls was one of my mom's & mother-in-laws favorite shows. My MIL worked at Warner Bros. and took me on the set one time. So fun!<br />Using Instagram!!

We always found a nice spot away from the wind to spash around and it was a perfect knitting/crafting spot as well!Dawn Suzettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09483805832809961369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-61506889168180239922013-03-29T08:34:19.629-03:002013-03-29T08:34:19.629-03:00Love.

I do remember seeing one of a woman in South America, maybe Peru, knitting as she walked, her yarn in a waist bag of somesort, baby slung to her back. I just loved it.<br />Thanks for sharing along this week... you lost the kids and I in the world of Blondie yesterday!Dawn Suzettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09483805832809961369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-28012658463655096762013-03-29T08:28:35.159-03:002013-03-29T08:28:35.159-03:00It is blowing my mind all the connections to the p...It is blowing my mind all the connections to the places we have lived. Talking about her fathers French-Canadian heritage, family from the Candian Maritimes, down to tribes in the west... it is pretty wild. Also hitting me is how she felt about moving as a child. Very interesting.Dawn Suzettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09483805832809961369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-55520913532268339822013-03-29T08:25:49.239-03:002013-03-29T08:25:49.239-03:00It has become so much more about the process.

The book Toymaking with Chidren by Freya Jaffke has lots of great knit animal patterns... and so much more out of wood, etc... Great book!<br />The Smithsonian collection is great.

Have almost bought it a few times, but never felt quite compelled enough to take it to the register.<br /><br />Today I began recovering some chair cushions while listening to season 1 of Gilmore Girls with my daughter. Have a few pictures on Instagram (http://instagram.com/thissortaoldlife) and our FB page (www.facebook.com/pages/This-sorta-Old-Life/101300486660420).<br /><br />Felt great to finally start a long-put-off project!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04227597091783239454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-58865922542013476052013-03-28T15:49:54.358-03:002013-03-28T15:49:54.358-03:00I've been making but not much listening: http:...I've been making but not much listening: http://amyhoodarts.com/2013/03/28/inspired-by-haeckel/<br /><br />I love the colors of that yarn, Dawn. It must be lovely to watch it knit up. Knitting outside while the kids play...<3. Last summer I was able to bring my knitting to the salt pond side of the beach--less windy, and no big waves, so I felt comfortable nobody's safety was in jeopardy! It was wonderfully relaxing to knit there.amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02429539000041713324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-60602931818729941382013-03-28T14:15:41.127-03:002013-03-28T14:15:41.127-03:00This week I finished my quilt!

Your project looks so pretty and it sounds like you are really enjoying the process.<br /><br />We are big kale lovers here and kale chips are one of my favorite ways to prepare it. I also like kale cooked with red onion, garlic and green beans and eated it with eggs for breakfast.<br />Tracey ~ Cloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11575854515384481573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743921172715592593.post-77885586629635546672013-03-28T08:31:16.990-03:002013-03-28T08:31:16.990-03:00Your yarn looks amazing, love it!

And a certain little man is asking for a few knitted animals. <br /><br />I love your seed sowing aprons, still need to hop over and enter the giveaway. Thanks for the link to the Smithsonian Folkways Children's Collection, it looks pretty great. Definitely checking it out. And kale chips, they are a favourite around here too :)Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/08476209107377395745noreply@blogger.com
