Good Morning My Friends,
After several gorgeous days, it looks like we are in for some grey weather. However, I did manage to take a picture of our Redbud yesterday. It is gorgeous this year!
This white blooms behind the Redbud are wild cherry trees at the edge of our woods.
Mabel, sweet Mabel, has been racing up and down the apple tree which is now full of blooms too.
She is a pistol and full of energy. At times she seems to have no fear whatsoever, but she is also smart. Mr. Fox was wandering around the yard early yesterday morning and Mabel stayed inside for quite some time. Fortunately.
Anyway, it's Wednesday and time to check in with Kat and her Merry Band of Unravelers to talk all things making and reading. Come and join in the fun!
As you might imagine, not a whole lot of knitting was accomplished last week. I did take my sock to work on in NC, but I only put in a few rows first thing in the morning when I was up before anyone else. I'm finally nearing the toe decrease on sock #1 (and the toe will be in the gold color too).
Here's another shot where you can (hopefully) see the pattern just below the cuff.
I should finish this up soon and get sock #2 on the needles pronto!
Last night I finished reading The Seed Keeper by Diane Wilson and loved it. Thank you Jane for recommending this very well written novel. I picked up two books from my library yesterday, but have not started either. Fletch and I started listening to a new book on Audible last night after dinner - more on that next week.
There has been no stitching in over a week and I am hoping to start a new piece today. Time will tell. I was up most of the night coughing, so I am a bit weary at this early morning hour. I plan to cancel my haircut appointment and will reschedule that for another week when (hopefully) this sinus congestion and cough are gone!
Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday - enjoy!!
