Pretty list of green things

I had a little fun making a pretty list of green things. I saw the pea pod earrings on the person who makes the mini mobile. They are seriously cute. Green has been my color of choice recently. I have been knitting on an afghan and surprise it is green. I don't know if it has to do with all the lovely green that is popping up here or if I just like green.

Knit happy!

My Etsy booth

It was rainy and a little wet. I had lots of fun putting names and faces to products. I did not get to visit as many of the booths as I would have liked.

Things for next time.... Bring a friend.

I will have to share what I bought later.

Beads

Look What I Made!





I went to Aquila Art Glass studio today....not just to make beads but to meet with LeahPellegrini and PrettyThingsJewelry And normally Littleputbooks is there as well but not this week. What do all these people have in common? Etsy. Its nice to hang out with people who are into all sorts of art and craft. Anyway I was late this week due to some sleeping issues. Actually to be fair it was the alarm clock.

Anyway on to the beads. I have had several bead making sessions these are from work session two and three. I think I am doing pretty good. I like how some of the glass reacts with the colors and they break into other colors. The pink green ivory one is one of those.

Today I had session four. I do not think I did as well on this set of beads. I used the green and orange that are in the pictures. The green is called sea weed and has some flecks in it.

No knitting today but I am going to go put my singles on the Niddy Noddy. Peace!

Spinng into spring

Spinning round round round.

I have been spinning tonight. I bought 4 oz of BFL from a local pdx Etsy shop, Painted Skeins. The colors are perfect for spring. Light to dark pink and this lush green shade. I will admit that I also

bought some BFL roving in a yellow, blue, purple. I am not quite sure how that one will spin up. There is an example in Painted Skein's sold orders.

This one I have spun so I get the long color repeats. I don't know if I am going to keep them as singles or ply it together. I have always had really good luck with singles and lace.

My socks are at a stall and the afghan is waiting for the second square to be cast on.

Tomorrow is tea time and more glass bead making. I don't know what colors I want to try but something spring like me thinks.

Hearts stars and a good pointy pair.

whooo

I did not just go look at cars.

I bought a car.

a 2007 Prius . . . Metalic grey.


Yeah I feel broke. But I feel very green. so far I average about 40 miles to the gallon. YEAH!

Go buy stitch markers because I have no money.

Happy knitting. I must go take a drive.
