a quick hello ~ posted by Melissa

just a few things to share that made me smile today :
 


this cute little ballet shrug ~ knit in a day for Neoma Jane's 2nd Easter
I highly recommend it
(thanks again Kelly for the destash gift ~ it's going to a good home!)
 


I've cast on Jaywalker #2 ~ what a fun pattern
thanks again Will for my sanity sock yarn ~ it has helped when I need an escape from things
 
 
and mail from far away places
I think we'll all be treated to many lovely photos and fun stories when Kelli returns
 
 
stay tuned!

  1. Lemme try this again... The shrug is darling. I was looking at the yarn and pattern on your RAV site, never realizing Little Miss Zippy, that you have finished it. VERY cute and the color is yummy.

    Carolyn and I made some jaywalkers and they were fun, though I started over a couple of times. LOL I like your yarn choice. Refreshing.

    1. thanks, Pen ~ the shrug was a breeze so anyone could do it in a day I think

      as for the jaywalkers ~ I love everything about them EXCEPT the cuff wants to pull down and zigzag like the rest of the sock which kind of bothers me ~ we'll see when the other one is done and I actually get a day of wear from them...
