I’ve been doing ALOT of reading lately and some knitting. Pair 3 of the 52 pair plunge is on the needles as I type…a few more hours and we can called it finished. Now, when to get those few more hours in.

What’s the ol’ motto….

I used up some superwash merino wool in my leftover yarn stash drawer to make another pair of Cowgirl Socks from IK Winter 2006.

OK…I don’t have a clue what you would call this…a door pillow? A door decoration? Hanging embroidery?

Happy Easter!
