Going through old photos, I came across this shawl that doesn’t get enough time in my regular wardrobe. This is “Water” by Sylvia McFadden. It was my first time playing with short rows in a shawl and I loved it!

The MC yarn is “Bramble” by HHF on their skinny singles base. The short row/CC is “York” by FDF n their Foxy Lady base. Both are luxuriously soft and squishy, perfect for around the neck and next to skin.

As always, detailed project notes on my Rav page.

Perks of teaching in Montana: you get to take kids out cross country skiing. If you’re lucky, you’ll nail the weather (like today) and get a bluebird sky. If you’re unlucky….well, at least you still get to go xc skiing.

Here’s a taste of what we will be growing from seed this year. Almost all of these things will start inside and then be moved out after last frost (which is June 20 for us). There will be a few that we get to start in ground (carrots, peas, etc).

What are you excited to grow this year? Anything new? Any old favorites? Share your grow zone if you know it!
