I met up with the girls yesterday at The Fiber Arts Studio and Cafe. I had yummy hot chocolate and scored a few new stash enhancements--but the real news is that I found a CROCHET pattern--do you believe it? for those of you that don't know--I use to be a huge crochet fan; I was one of those that had 850 pounds of red heart and crocheted afghans in my sleep.

but this new pattern--well, its just fantastic:

I know you want it all for yourself too....its just to gorgeous.

I finally met Donna, Nicole, and Heather at FAS--we had a great time shopping and knitting and I hope we get to do it again. Maybe I'll even try the bubble tea.

In other news--those of you that are looking for signs of spring, I give you:

The bleeding hearts I bought as a bare root cutting and have been babying inside are already blooming--just waiting a few more weeks before they can take up residence in the front yard...

happy knitting (and, oh my, crocheting!)
