Lemon Drop

By -



I'm all about yellow suddenly. 
The feather and fan scarf is in  Lemon Drop from Lion Brand.
The color is so cheerful after a long winter!
It is going to block and wear beautifully.
Knit two together is hard on my wrists so I slip and pass the slip stitched over instead.  
See?  I am all about yellow.
I forced our forsythia to bloom this week.
My little Irish vase was a wedding gift years ago from my Godparents.  

Oh Spring I am so happy you are practically here.
Spring ahead this weekend! 
I don't mind losing the hour one bit. 

Do you think it is really here?

What a lovely, springy scarf!

I don't know if spring is really here, but I feel like we won't get any more sub-freezing temps at this point.

Have a good weekend!

Here? Well, I'd say it's getting closer, but I'm sure winter has at least one more snow storm in his bag of tricks.

Pretty...so pretty...makes me think of Donovan and Mello Yellow. We've been in the 70's and near 80 all week. Supposed to be a little cooler this weekend but I don't think we will see snow again until next winter.

This is spring-ahead weekend? I do hate that! Maybe it won't be so bad after I retire.
I have really come to love yellow, too. I think it was yarn that got my interest.

The feather and fan looks great and YES! It totally matches your flowers. You are a ray of sunshine and sweet as lemon drops yourself Kathy B. Thanks for being another reason I remember the good in the world.

Is this the Sock Ease yarn? Are you finding it scratchy? It feels that way to me in the store - but I've never tried knitting with it yet...

I'm still rooting for rain as CA terribly needs it. But lots of trees and flowers blossoming around town here. This yarn totally emulates your flowers. Neat-o.

Lemons drops, yum! I love forsythia, too, and daffodils; they sure brighten up the gray skies. There's lots of pink around here as well. Spring is coming soon! Hurrah!

That's a very happy yarn, and matches the forsythia perfectly!

I used to love the forsythia bushes in my yard but they don't grow in FL. When I was little, I thought they were just 'for' me...'cynthia' . lol
Beautiful vase; what a treasure!

Spring has definately sprung here! We had to mow the lawn already! But then we really don't have a true winter here and that's just fine with me. I love your yellow scarf!!! It's gorgeous! I love the feather and fan pattern but for some reason it gives me trouble. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but yours looks very pretty!

You just can't beat Feather and Fan. I know most yarn snobs eschew it, but I think Lion makes some lovely yarns.

Here in Florida it really is! I don't think I've seen a prettier day than today. The breeze is blowing cool and it's sunny!

I love that yellow feather and fan! That is going to be just the thing to brighten up a grey day!

 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...
