I had the great good fortune to spend a weekend in the woods with 10 friends, 2 weekends ago.
It was a perfect weekend of catching up, crafting, and turning off the 24/7 news cycle.
I loved all the little fungi on my walks.
And the big ones, too!
It helped me get ready for the week ahead. And I did a lot of knitting, too. More on that in the next post.
Good friends, a beautiful day, food, wine…perfect!
Obligatory knit content: I knit in the car on the way out (no, I wasn’t driving). I’m trying to finish editing a washcloth sampler set that I wrote for a class a couple years ago, and I need pictures of the finished items to include in the pattern. I gave away all the samples as gifts, way back when. So I’m making new ones, but there are six of them, and I’ve only finished two…keep knitting! Still working on the second shetland shawl, too, just have to finish the border, and block it. I need to finish by next knit nite so I can return Helen’s blocking wires to her. A self-imposed deadline. I can’t wait to get these done and start something new. Why is it always faster to knit in our heads, than with our hands?
