I finished my last gift hat (I hope)...this one for my brother from wool fisherman's wool from the Slouchy Hat book.
I hope he likes it.
And I have started on the 30 pieces needed for the Noro Scarf pattern I am working on now. Henry came in to give his two cents worth of critique.I think it will make a lovely scarf.
The New Year has begun.
We are getting over colds we both got on vacation!
We have had two weeks of rest and relaxation and a total of nine days away in two locales
one with family and one alone.
I'd say it was a pretty perfect holiday time for us.
Lots of reading (three books for me; discovering John Hart as a new author of interest);
time to draw and paint and knit. And nothing much to worry about at all.
I hope your transition to the new year went as smoothly.
I revamped my blog look; added a slide show on the sidebar with many of
my drawings and paintings from 2011.
I look forward to more in 2012.
Also note my little survey on the side bar as well!
Now I am off to the office to get the ball rolling there.
Enjoy your day.
Good look blog...well I noticed the different set up, which means I must be paying attention...lol. Oh, and I voted, although I wondered with the option to tick NEVER, if somebody doesn't visit or comment how would they know to vote Never anyway?...or is it me getting confused...LOL.
ReplyDeleteCowabunga.. I can hear the Beachboys singing..Every bodies going surfing.. Surfing USA. Your new header brings back my youth in So Cal..:)) Great shot. Another cool painting and hat and new scarf going. All good things to start off the new year. So glad you had a nice time off even if you did get a stinking cold. It just gave you an excuse to laze about knitting & recouping. :))
ReplyDeleteThat is a stunning painting, Lynn!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're off to a great start with creating art in 2012! I admire your ability to produce so much - you must never sleep! Happy New Year - I'm thankful you are my blogger friend!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely way to start the year ... wishing you lots of knitting, painting, and happy times in 2012 :) Btw, my line drawings are inspired the 20 minute sketches you do ..its a brilliant idea to make simple sketches during the day...it's so doable :)
