This and That

 I couldn't find Pink in the suggested yarn for my next knit up. 
So I went for blues…again. 
********
These are my new glasses.  See the little dot? 
It is the magnet that the sunglasses click on to. 
Ingenious I say.   When the silver mirrored sunglasses click on to these they look like a totally different pair of glasses.

Anzula yarns is going to be at Three Bags Full on Monday from 12-3.   Almost all their yarns have some cashmere content. 
They come into yarn studios, set up, stay just 3 hours and they leave.  It's their gig.  
I hope to get up there to see the trunk show.

Your yarn might be blue again, but it's a very, very beautiful blue. I love the hint of sheen.

Your glasses are very pretty too. Amazing how many ways they have to clip on sunglasses. I have two "clips" --- both pinch to the bridge, but I had a pair similar to yours a couple of years ago. The magnet was on the top of the temple though.

That magnetic dot is VERY clever. Sure like that blue yarn but surprised Malbrigo didn't have any pank.

I think of you when I see blue! It is beautiful yarn and perfect for KathyB. I really like the new glasses. I've never seen any with sunglasses that snap on by magnet. I had some once that had clip on sunglasses. I like this better! AND the frames are beautiful without the sunglasses. Good choice!

Ooh, I love the idea of the magnet for the sunglasses! That's new to me, so I must investigate.

You can't go wrong with Malbragio - pank OR blue

I've got to ask about the magnet next time I go in for glasses; ingenious!

That's a great idea for glasses. So blue is the new pink for this summer? Good. I'm doing blue right now myself.

Blue Malbrigo - luscious. It's so soft, it's one of my very, very favorite yarns.

I have not seen glasses with the magnetic dot; now that is ingenious!

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 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...
