each day that is going by. Coughing a bit less and my energy level is a bit more. Today was good enough that I ran a couple of errands before conducting a search and seizure in the garage.
As it turns out, one of the yarns I bought while living in Camberley has been discontinued by Rowan. I had purchased a number of balls when one of the two in town department stores decided to completely close down its “haberdashery” department, as they called it. I loved the feel, the colors were what I was knitting at the time and besides – 75% off for alpaca? Any way – fast forward to this past week – another member of Ravelry sent me a message asking if I still had this particular yarn. It is only 14+ years, why not? I had no clue so said I would check in my stash.
Yesterday I located two colors, today a third. I will not admit to how many bags, bins, or boxes I searched. Two of the three colors didn’t even have a color name. The third wasn’t what she was looking for either. But the day still wasn’t a wash, I found a vest I had started and feel like finishing + two sewing patterns I thought I had lost. But I have a lot more yarn than I thought I had….
Otherwise, I have been listening to Rawlins Cross – a Canadian group out of Newfoundland and making progress on the Peacocks.
almost to the half-way point.
