Hello and thanks for visiting my blog. I have been knitting on and off for 50 years and I recently learned to crochet. I love looking for wool bargains and making them into something useful. I mainly knit for charity. I occasionally knit for myself and family members if I find a really good pattern or if they ask nicely!!

The Ocean Blanket ripples along....
This is my "Keep Calm and Carry On Knitting" blanket project. It is now 17" long and I have at least another 20" to go. It is very therapeutic to knit, though a little hard on the hands as I am holding 2 strands of dk wool together.
It looks like I probably won't need all the blue wool I set aside, so I am already planning my next blanket. That one will be on a slightly different theme.....possibly a heather garden. But that is in the future. For now, I am living in the present and enjoying the moment.

I admire your knitting blankets - I'm afraid they are one of my least favorite things to knit. :-) Your colors are lovely!
