New Projects...

 A very simple scarf pattern found on the label of this interesting bulky yarn by Berroco called Link is working up real fast and pretty!! 
 Really enjoying the color changes of this color called Arcadia.  Purchased at Noble Knits.
 Also in the works is a fine lace shawl knitted with a mohair loop yarn...found it in my stash.
I think it may be by Cherry Tree Hill...it's very delicate and hope that it will be pretty when finished.

Summer sure is flying by!  I'm already thinking ahead what to knit or crochet for Christmas gifts...guess we'll see!!  I usually come up with something!!

Squirrel Hijinx...

These little critters are multiplying and visiting my yard more often...of course, the peanuts I give them does encourage them, but I love watching them and seeing my 10 year old dog Maggi get all excited over them.
I once saw five squirrels on my wall at once...almost looked like a Hitchcock movie with squirrels!
The squirrels sure like the peanuts...they also love sliced apples too!
This squirrel seemed to be hugging the cool wall because it was hot!!! I have found that usually the squirrels don't really like each other and will run each off, or to the other extreme of liking each other a little TOO much if you know what I mean!!
