this blog would be updated so much more often! My days though are filled with two-year old stuff, like potty training, Cinderella, reading the same stories over and over again, short walks to the grocery store, and now cursing the early Winter that has landed smack-dab on Calgary. It's a lovely life for me, and for Sadie too, but probably not all that interesting for you.
What I do have to share with you is knitting! I finished the pattern for the Drifted Pearls scarf on Friday night, and wore it on Saturday for brunch and shopping. The yarn, Rowan Lima, is fantastic. It's a chainette yarn, so the scarf is light yet lofty and so, SO warm and cozy. I'm tempted to make everything forever with Lima.
Drifted Pearls on Ravelry
The response to this scarf in the Ravelry community has been lovely ~ so lovely that I'm a little taken aback. It's incredibly flattering. I just wanted to say thank you for the kind messages and comments and of course for buying it (if you've bought it).
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians and Happy Sunday to the rest!
I just saw this pattern on Ravelry and bought it immediately. I have already cast on (and ripped and cast on again :-)). This pattern is inspired. Thank you!

I started knitting about a year ago, and knitting patterns are a whole world of fun. They are also hit and miss, while some are really lovely, others seem to need tweaking which is difficult for me at this stage. However, you have incredible taste, and talent as each piece you have created is (in my opinion) perfect. The yarn is always gorgeous, and the patterns are beyond words good. Though I just found your work, and have yet to knit one, I just know that at some point I am going to need each and every one.
Just thought you should know.
