Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

Img_0375 No, I still don’t have a camera, but thanks to my SIL, my knitting buddy, Marsha, and Dorothy, we have pictures. What a wonderful time we’ve had in Washington so far. Not one, but two yarn crawls, a fun trip to the casino, lots of sunshine and laughter. Of particular interest to bloggers, here’s Marsha and I with Dorothy of Missouri Star. I invited Dorothy up for a night and we all had the best time.I’m finding that there is an instant connection between knit bloggers that guarantees a good time. And Dorothy, in particular, not only an admirable knitter but a warm person and inspiring mom.

More wedding photos, first a better one of the wedding sweater. Then a few favourites, especially the one of Elina, Mari and Bryant. There is also the Danish wedding cake.

For some fun, we have the bride shaving her 5:00 shadowy legs in the parking lot between the reception and the winery tour. I’m sending that picture to the Bic company. Img_2075_2         Winery tour, you ask? The bride HATES to dance and refused to have dancing at the reception. I can’t blame her as I didn’t develop a love of dancing until I hit 40 and now you can’t stop me. So, I told her she needed to have something at her wedding that people will remember as fun. Mom to the rescue – I booked a tour of a nearby winery, whose products we featured at the wedding:

That’s all for now, my camera should arrive by the end of the week and I’ll have my own photos again. And next week I’ll have reliable e-mail and can start responding to comments again. Thank you all, in the meantime, for your wonderful remarks.

    What a great idea of a winery tour instead of dancing. I love it, much better and definitely unique. And I love the wine bottles with their picture, what a neat momento.

    How fun to get together with fellow knitters! More great wedding pictures. I especially like the ‘hokeypokey’ foot shot. And would love to try the Danish wedding cake!

    What beautiful pictures! It looked like a memorable day.
    Thanks for visiting my blog. Things have gotten better and my boss was so understanding. He said that if I needed to take off at all during the summer, that it was no problem. My daughter has seemed to settle into the camp routine but I’m also trying to take some time off if she seems to need some down time. After all, it is the summer!

    I came across your beautiful herringbone rib scarf while searching patterns. If you are still giving out the pattern I would love a copy. I have only been knitting a short year and have way too few hours in the day to devote to this new addiction. I live in Maryland with 5 cats, a german shepherd and a sheltie who are all indulging my new obsession with patience.
