Last night as I was moving some things around on my blog, I checked on my little friend, Morgan's memory tree and saw that we were only 3 ornaments shy of 100.
I am always blown away by the generosity of knitters. Morgan's Christmas tree has become my yearly donation and I want to thank each one of you who joined me in donating a lunch for life.
Cancer is such a dreadful disease and even more so when it snuffs out the light of a vibrant and energenic child. It is my hope that Neuroblastoma will be a curable cancer in the future and each dollar that goes towards research is one step closer to that goal......so THANK YOU!!!
I also want to thank you all for the helpful tips sent my way for the edges on the Etheral Fichu. Gayle was kind enough to suggest substituting a K2 on the end knit side and a K1,YO on the purl side and you know what.......it works perfectly!
Thanks Gayle!!
Now lest you think I am going to continue with daily blogging, I can assure you that I am not. I am going to try blogging daily during the week and take the weekends off....but, if I find I don't have anything to say, I am giving myself permission not to post too......here's a little of that trying to be kinder to myself this year....;)
Have a GREAT weekend!
Very pretty, the yarn is very pretty too.

It's a hard habit to stop. But I do enjoy your musings and thoughts each day.
I like the work around for your points. That Gayle is one smart cookie.
