Frolic Haul

In an extremely prescient move given the TTC Strike, Michelle rented a car to head over to the Knitter's Frolic. It was much larger than I expected and I definitely suffered from some sensory overload.
I fell in love with the XO Sock kit, but I still need to acquire 2.5 mm dpns. There are a couple of sweaters I have been wanting to knit for a while and I managed to pick up some yarn for them.

I got a great price on the Ecological Wool from a stand that had skeins of the most amazing colours...Of course, I bought beige yarn.

But the deal of the day was on this rayon slub. I am hoping to use it for the Hourglass Sweater from Last Minute Kintted Gifts.

Frolic, indeed.

Phlox Envy

At least twice a day I walk by our neighbours' gorgeous phlox.



We, on the other hand, have this in our front yard. Hopefully next year we will get a chance to tackle the front yard next year.

Ty looks so serious, but he loves having his picture taken.

Better late than never

At long last I have started a blog. I anticipate that it will be a mishmash of things moving forward. Often on the subway or walking down the street, I will have an if-I-had-a-blog moment, but right now the stare of the blank Post box is draining me of all ideas. Hopefully I have better luck next time.
