March has arrived - in like a lion in our neck of the woods. Cold and windy, snow squalls, very winter-like... We will keep our fingers crossed that as the month progresses, it will actually warm up a bit. I always feel hesitant about March - it's that transitional month, and it usually means a great deal of wetness and mud. Would it be too much to think we could get a gradual warmup, gentle winds, and quick drying of the ground? (most likely)
Additional snow days and inclement weather made the last 2 weeks more of a chore where "digging out" activities took precedence over most other things. Be that as it may, the dyeing of yarn was accomplished and I am happy with the results. The talented Marilyn G. knit up some swatches for me so they could be photographed and put on the site as a visual aid in seeing how the handpaints knit up. These will hopefully appear soon, or I will show them on the blog. My computer guru has more than a full plate at the moment, and asking for a block of his time will be farther down on the priority list than, say, fixing the tractor starter, whose wires decided they should catch fire...
It's good to have your priorities straight - I keep hoping we can cross off snow removal from the top of ours in favor of other, gentler pursuits.
Peace & Love,
