I do know it's been awhile, we've just had a busy summer. Nice busy, lots of travel, family, company, knitting, swimming, gardening. A few photos from our summer...
I haven't posted a lot of knitting on here in the last few years. Not much to say about it but I still knit. I knit because I love to create. I knit because I love sweaters. I knit because I grew up with a mom who is artistic beyond the acknowledgement she receives, and it's in my blood to do something creative. I knit because I love the good things God grows, like sheep and wool and muskox and cotton. I knit because I love colors. I knit because my boys wear what I knit. I knit because I like the rhythm. I knit because it has a beginning and an end, and they are achievable. I knit because when my hands are busy, my mouth slows down, and it gives my brain a chance to make better decisions. I knit because I'm really, really good at it, and it's one of the few things that others acknowledge, and we all need that. I knit because I love to knit. I'm working on a colorful shawl in alpaca.
That looks like a great summer!! Beautiful sweater!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you and the boys have been enjoying yourselves, Karen!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Looks like you're having a good summer with some fun travel thrown in there! Love that red sweater -- are those sleeves in progress or will they stay caps? VERY Pretty!
