Lots to do this weekend ...


Well our cherry tree is in full bloom in our backyard this week. That means I have to get out to knit in the backyard this weekend if I want to also enjoy the view. I do love my tree! I want to pick up some thistle for the yellow finches first so that they can be feeding while I sit on the patio to watch & listen while I knit. Yup, this is my favorite spot to knit in the spring thru the summer and even into the fall. I just love my backyard! If it's nice, I might even plant a few flowers before I sit down to knit ...

This all will happen AFTER I get my first sheep felted. That way he can be drying over the weekend. I have a couple of other WIP's I'm working on also. Oh, and I did get my socks done finally. Remember the ones I've been working on while on the train? I'm wearing them now and they are very comfortable.



The past few days have been a busy one at work, but I did take a break for some fun. One of our knitters danced at MIT's Earth Day event and I was sure to be there to see her dance.

[by the way ... I'm using a new camera & the date & time are NOT right.]


Our knitter/dancer is Nadira of Boston ... dressed in blue

If only I could dance like she does or like Sabrina of Boston, who danced before her. Whoa, they were good!! Of course they've been doing it for years but ...

Aaaaah, to be young and beautiful again! Okay, enough dreaming ... I'd rather be where I am now and knitting right?

I love the sheep and the socks! Knitting outdoors is hard for us here because it gets so darned hot. But it sounds lovely - enjoy your tree!
