Knitting

Inspired by a Crafts American Group job posting. Knitting first touched my life when my mother knitted my Cabbage Patch doll, Rudy, an Oregon Ducks cheerleading outfit with her name on it. She wore it until the day she became nothing but a childhood memory. I again recognized the power knitting had in my life when it earned me the nickname “Grandma Barb” at Alpha Phi in college. The past year has not found much time to work on the lace pattern scarf I began well over a year ago, but planning a wedding consumed most of my free time. Now I have been inspired to pick it back up again with enthusiasm.

WANT ONE. In purple...that is if you have the time. :)

I expect it for Christmas 2012 at the earliest.

Hah! I think I'm moving on to scarves for my Bostons... straight and short!
