Seize the mountain spirits,
Make them divulge their secrets.
Only with strength is there discovery

Today when I was outside, I took a look at the garden bed that is against the house. Imagine my surprise when I saw these little green Sedum heads poking out of the dirt! Now remember, I live in the mountains....eek! Is it going to be a glorious early spring......or is it Global Warming? As much as I adore this early, warm weather, it is almost disconcerting. Let's hope that Mother Earth is just smiling on us this winter!
Fibery Stuff
I didn't participate in the Knitting Olympics as I knew that my plate was much to full to put that kind of pressure on myself, but I have been unusually productive <giggle>. The malabrigio sweater is moving along at a nice pace. I have been spending so much time in the living room just watching the puppies grow and knitting, that this sweater is just growing right along with the babies.
It has been one of the most enjoyable knits I have had in a long time. Have I told you how much I am enjoying this Malabrigio yarn? Because I am ;-)
I have managed to squeeze a little dyeing in this week. I was so disappointed to miss the Spa, that I put the dye pots away last week. However, looking at the pile of naked merino, just begging for some pretty colors, was just too much to pass by.
I am looking ahead to the Denmark Sheep Festival in April and the Fiber Frolic in June. Hopefully I will see you there ;-)
Puppies
I put this down at the bottom, as I know.........this is a fibery blog, but I just love taking photos of the babies and sharing them like a proud Mum.
