When Knitted Pigs Fly

(pictured porky resides at 3 Bags Full in Northbrook, at the cashier's desk)

When knitted pigs fly, that's when you will see a pattern written by me.....
Guess what? I am writing my first pattern......It will be finished so soon.
It will be so easy the flying pig could knit it....

I did get my inspiration from little Alyoops. She is so young and new to knitting
and she is writing her first pattern without any fear at all. Ahhhh youth.
Al wrote a pattern for a baby blanket once and a sock pattern. I think we
are going to start something here......
what? Patterns at Irish eyes?

I'm so energized by this new path for me. I took the quotes from Steve Jobs this week regarding
connections and making things happen, to heart. Stay tuned please.......
and happy workend. I'm back to work tonight

I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT>

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
