little break from here this week. but you can find me over here now, too!

more yarn fun here. i really love these pins. nice holiday gifts, perhaps?

oh so sad....i knit this gorgeous scarf only to find that my neck and face do not like the yarn. too itchy! might have to try again with some softer yarn.
