New Shawl - Seed Pods?
![]() |
One edge row being added ( not a 'hedge row' in case you are francophone ... ;-) ) |
![]() |
Another design decision - how big do those edge leaves have to be in order to be effective? Check back to see this shawl in color! |

Busy times

Just one of the many knitting projects Louise finished over the past weeks! |
We have had lots going on during the weeks we have neglected our Blog! And most of it has been very enjoyable. Have a look at how we have been filling our time. But never fear, we are getting back to felting now!

Louise traveled all the way to Baltimore by car to spend a few days with her sister and her family. That was an adventure that involved tons of cooking! |

Elaine had a wicked cold over the holiday so that slowed down the pace of life somewhat. But it did leave lots of opportunities for spinning and knitting so all was not so terrible. |

SPRINGTIME IN BUENOS AIRES - explosion of color
We are still readjusting from our wonderful stay in Buenos Aires. It is hard to believe that we had a whole two weeks in that huge and vibrant city. (I was not sorry that our original 10 days were extended due to Hurricane Sandy's disruption of air travel.) We were lucky enough to fly down with our friend Jody and stay at her home in a lovely tree filled neighborhood. What a pleasure it was to arrive in the middle of springtime when at home we had been heading toward autumn. |
Little corner fruit and vegetable vendor - a great place to pick up new Spanish vocabulary and look at those mouthwatering colors! |
Food is not the only item here that comes in delicious colors. Spring shoes are wonderful! Louise was depressed because we did not find one shop that carried women's sizes past 40. |
We took a fascinating tour with GrafittiMundo. Our guide gave us lots of insight into Buenos Aires history and the beginnings of wall art here. |
Of course we checked the yarn and textile district but we were totally enchanted to see crochet yarn bombing in many neighborhoods. |

New felt scarf creations!
Cork seems to be enjoying this new scarf. It was inspired by the big mermaid scarves we have been making. Perhaps he would look better in a red scarf? |
We Love these new diagonal crinkle silk scarves! We find they look great on every body and they can be tied in all kinds of ways. Thanks to our French Knitting Group for acting as models! (Notice that Cork allowed Louise to wear his new favorite scarf.)
We plan to have a full color range for sale at the Pier 23 Fair in Halifax in November. Come see us!
