The Spinning Guild will be participating in a Sheep to Shawl this Saturday! My Boss has given me the day off from the shop so I can join in the fun! It just so happens that the shop is offering spinning lessons and some spinning supplies ;)

I finished this project awhile ago, but couldn't share since it was a surprise. This is OpArt from Knitty, a very clever, very simple and very versatile pattern! I knit this for Cara's new baby Cali, although at the time of the knitting was not sure if the recipient was going to be a girl or boy. I used Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece and cannot say enough good things about this yarn.
Flair and I went a-visiting on Sunday and I got to smooch sweet baby cheeks! So now I can come clean with some recent knitting projects.
btw — I made another little baby sun hat with the leftovers, but didn't snap a picture.
Babylon Happenings
When I arrived at the shop today, there were festivities going on! The Old Town Hall has been restored and is now a museum and today is the dedication ceremony with more fun planned for tomorrow.
so if you are in need of either:
- a.) yarn
- b.) old-timey trolley ride
…. Babylon is the place to be!
Mannequin head
Would you look at what Vicki found?!! It’s exactly like Samantha’s cousin Serena!
