Yarn!

I'm a new knitter( sort of) My home ec. teacher taught me to crochet, so that was my first passion. I would go to the library and get all the books on any thing crochet. It really bugged me that almost all the books were on knitting. ( very aggravating). So I eventually had to try my hand at knitting, which of course had me hooked the very first time I picked up needles. I love knitting everything, but I'm still pretty new. I haven't actually completed any thing but I've tried my hand at just ab… Continue

You can't figure what cats are thinking!

Pinkie, the white and black one, will sit just out of reach and watch, or when I am winding yarn on the swift, she waits until it stops and then leaps into the center; can't help wondering what she is thinking each time she does that? Maybe she wants a free ride... Angie, her sister, is the kitty that likes to leapup on my chest, right between me and my knitting! Gives a person a heart attack! Usually she is more polite, and sits on the arm of my recliner gently patting my arm and asking permission to climb onto my lap. They're so sweet.

I am a farmgirl at heart! I was raised on a dairy and beef cattle farm. We did have pigs when I was very young, but not too long. I love to go home and experience life on the farm!

Good luck on your current projects!

When i first got her she was underweight and we still arent sure but possibly pregnant but i love working with her and spending time with her she is sixteen and was beaten so she is very hard to train but we are working on that :)
