I just got home and the mail was here – and there is a new Knit Picks catalog!! And, they are featuring their sock yarns – oh, I’m in love!!
If you go to their site – check out Dancing, Parade, Essential and Simple Stripes. All $2.99/ball – so that’s one pair of socks for less than $6!!! I love this company!! I’m so excited and I’m only on page 10!! 😉
Speaking of socks – here is my work in progress – 2 socks on 2 circs using Lion Brand’s Magic Stripes!
AMY O,
Hey there! Do you remember me from the PW board??? Of course you do, I was always getting sent to the corner for being naughty. LOL
I have been thinking about you so much this past month; someone mentioned you on the new board and lo and behold, someone else found your site!
I’ve been sitting here for an hour reading through (and weeping most of that time).
I don’t know if this “appropriate” or not, but the way you share your grief and your complete honesty and vulnerability has touched a very special place in my spirit tonight. Thank you for that.
I am not thankful you grieve and mourn for your sweet son, but I am thankful you just “let it out” to God and to those who are reading. IT is SOOO time for Christians to express a REAL life, living, wandering, questioning, yet unyielding faith in God. I think we are often too afraid to show off faith that might have little dark spots or cracks in it; and yet, it’s through those cracks and spots that we somehow get a glimpse of Him and how BIG He really is (and how small we really are).
You write beautifully; you have an amazing family and I just wanted you to know I have been thinking of you and praying for you.
Hugs and prayers,
Sasha (spriggy/jsprig)
