Happy New Year everyone. We had a white Christmas and lots of snow shovelling, good exercise and lovely weather to be out and see neighbours after the holidays…..also time to keep knitting and create warm things to bolster us in the Canadian Winter. Here’s a shot out of my dining room window of our street…
Just sent out an email for the Holiday Shopping Season! I’ve deadlines – knits to get done for folk who need to take them away for the holidays elsewhere, and making sure my online presence is up to date. I’m working on some workshops for the Winter…to help your work be awesome! I’ll keep you…
It must seem as if I took a long time to finish this jacket but it’s done and long gone to it’s new owner …. and wouldn’t you know it I didn’t take a photo of the finished product. The same style in a different colour is shown in the fourth image. After the jacket…

Friday was a half day as Edith Scott would be showing up to set up at around 2pm, so I went down into Charlottetown. I have been here once before but didn’t get to mooch about on my own….something I love to do anyplace new. I found a huge cruise ship in the harbour just…
Well, I got lost in Bangor but I then ‘dyed’ and went to heaven! This sign was outside a building for children’s art and activities….it is so fun, the classes must be super!…there’s a violin on the other side! Anyway, I digress. While hunting for Stephen King’s house in Bangor I followed the directions of the…
