How wonderful to be born into a world with YARN (because I'm sure that in some distant galaxy, there is a world without yarn, what a sad prospect). Currently on needles I've got a sweater (my second go at the same pattern - learned a lot from my mistakes), a scarf (my first project in cotton), a capelet (sounds like something a super hero would wear) and a birthday gift for my husband that I've been attempting to finish for the past 3 birthdays (I've still got 'til October 19th - ever hopeful). <br />Ravelry: Kaleomahina<br />Love reading what other knitters are up to.

I also buy myself yarn for a sweater, needles or a new knitting bag. What's on my needles? The front of my cabled pullover. I wish I had a garden, but I don't. If I did, I would grow tomatoes, basil and have a couple of rose bushes.

Using my handy pair of circular needles (#2) with Cerulean - Lillian.

Mostly I've been crocheting some simple but lovely tablecloths.<br /><br />I also just began weaving on a little tapestry loom, which is extraordinarily zen, as I tend to get too caught up in making a project "just so". With the weaving, I can play with colors and textures and not feel obligated to create a very specific piece...at least, not yet.<br /><br />Yesterday was my birthday, and my husband's two days before that, plus we celebrate our anniversary at the same time, so for Birthdayversary we went on a nice tour around inland and the coast of California with our three dogs.<br /><br />And prepping for TdF, for serious this year. Thanks for asking! Can't wait to share some projects.<br /><br />(Oh, and Rav ID: NovelTea)T. L.

I have two skeins of DWDW yarn caked up for color-work mittens, and will start them when I finish the two active projects.<br /><br />We have all sorts of stuff in the garden... have been eating lettuce, kale, spinach, but also have potatoes, garlic, peppers, tomatoes, beets, carrots, celery, eggplant, raspberries, and a humongous patch of blackberries.
