Knitting

Guess where I went on Saturday??? Woolen Meadow farm had their shearing Day.
This sheep is about to get a hair cut. No lambs this year. They are taking a break. Lovely fleece however. I bought two, a white , named Ally and a dark named Boo or something like that. At any rate I'm going to send them out to be processed to Wooly Knob in Indiana, then maybe I can actually get them spun up.
Met up with Shelly, whom I haven't seen since I closed the shop and we had a very nice visit. Thank you Shelly!

I finished logan's sweater and it looks so cute on him. He pranced around modeling for us. This is a couple inches longer than the pattern calls for because my daughter requested that.

I love this pattern - thank you Carol from Cottage Creations. I asked Carol to make an adult version but she said she has been asked this quite a bit, and so far it has not happened. So, I encouraged her but we'll see. Josh wants one also but the largest size is 36 mos. and Josh will be 5 on May 1st. so I'd have to do the math to get his size on this one. Wish me luck.

I have been asked to be a part of Ladies Night Out on April 16 from 5:00 PM on at the Earl Holasek Greenhouses in Chanhassen. I will have my knitting stuff and am giving up some great knitting books for the Auction. This should be alot of fun - food, snacks, beverages, free stuff, bring in a pot and plant it for Mother's Day.

Same night is the Eden Prairie Art Center event at City offices in the Garden Room. Also, food, entertainment, great auction (I have offered my jackets).

We are working on getting a knitting/crocheting group together in Chaska. We have a few people and hopefully can get going this Spring. I will be there if you need help, otherwise it will be a relaxed evening of chatting and working on projects. Email me if you would like to join this group.

I will be very busy in the next few weeks. Working is going great and I hope you come out to the Mustard Seed to visit, plants will be in by May 1st. Check the websit for details. www.themustardseed.com

My sister is coming for Josh's birthday and I haven't finished painting upstairs so I will be truckin' to get that done.

Have a great Easter and if you live near by stop in at Carver Flowers for some wonderful gifts and great flowers. Annette does some stunning boquets.
