Yarn Along





~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs.  I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well.







I think last week I assured you this blanket would be finished and blocking.  As you can see that has  not happened.  I have made progress and it will for sure it will be finished next week, but a little thing happened that kept me away from the needles. That space above.... I have spent a lot of time there over the past week.

I have become a sponsor on this blog and Ginny put together a little giveaway this past Saturday.  Friends, the response was tremendous!  I cannot thank you enough for the purchases and comments.  I have still not caught up, but I'm not too far behind.  This little business is really a gift.  It is the gift of Elizabeth to all of us.  As the song says, I have " set my sights on the higher gifts. On the things that come from your Maker in heaven." This is an offering.

The 15% coupon code for the giveaway is still active until May 31st.  Code is SMALLTHINGS24.  If you don't see something you like, email me and I will work to create something for you.

The Little Oratory is still on my bedside table.  I have not read much this past week, but that book is now autographed.  See Monday's post for that story!

Linking up with Ginny today!

    1. Danna, I always use Knit Picks Comfy for my blankets. It washes and dries so beautifully . The Pima cotton is divine to knit with. All of my grandchildren and many others who have been gifted have blankets from this.
