We are still buried in snow (it's awesome :-D)...
...so I thought I'd share a little Valentine's Day spring green (aren't these miniature daffodils awesome?).
Plenty of blooms still to come (Saint Tim's pretty awesome, too ;-).
Hmmm - the Pretty Thing still looks about the same as it did the other day. Except if you look close, you'll see the green thread lifeline I threaded through before I started the "easy" part of the pattern so I'm don't have to worry about another frogging (ripping it back - rip it, rip it - not so awesome).
I re-knit most of it yesterday during the biathalon. I decided that was the perfect sport for a brutal re-knit. I felt like one of the cross country skiers, slogging along, albeit through some beautiful scenery, carrying a gun.
You never know when a gun might come in handy while knitting.

Hee! You are so funny! :) Hope the Pretty Thing goes smoothly for you.
Thanks for sharing the flowers. What a lovely gift!
I may have to start posting flowers too...just to survive until spring. Nice shots.
Beautiful flowers! Love the first shot. It won't be long ..goodness, March is just a few weeks away!
So how did you convince the Yarn Harlot to share the "Pretty Thing" pattern? I'm 1 of the 937 people asking, ok, begging for it.
It was a download on her blog one day...finally.

I saw the fire and thought it was your needle that was on fire. :-)
"Wow! She's scorchin'!" is what I thought! :-)
I find myself at yet another decision point. "Is it time to start decreasing for the toe?"
My hope is to finish the test slipper tonight, so I can felt it tomorrow and then go shopping for more yarn............
I am eager (and nervous!) about what will happen when I felt......
You made me laugh! Which is nice since I had a horrible day on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Your flowers were lovely....for a moment I thought they were in your garden.

You have such a delightful humor in your posts. Thanks for bringing a smile to my day!
Love them all, so I take it you are enjoying the new camera..;-)
I know this is an old post, but what can I say? I was looking around at lamb/sheep on your blog...because I still need to get a real good feel for what they look like from all angles and your blog is soooooo good.
I really like the daffodils photos in this post.
