Enhancing, Pod Casting, Cap Wearing, Oh My! (and a little dog too)

As mentioned in a previous post, here are the latest additions to my stash. From left to right: Duet Sock Yarn in 'Hot Flash' & a toe-up pattern w/afterthought heel, Lisa Souza - Lime N Violet, Koigu KPPPM in P83084 & P207196 The Koigu are just gorgeous! I am tempted to purchase a skein of every color.

Cheshire Cat is for Alex of Lixie Knits It. I learned of her Podcast (available on iTunes - go check it out) through the loverly Nic. Alex gave my little o'l blog a mention, awfully sweet of her, so I in turn am giving a nod back to her. Her podcast is very entertaining and informative in regards to all things knitting & fiberlicious in the great big blog-osphere & beyond. And seriously, who can resist that adorable accent. Give her a listen, you won't be disappointed. Cheers Alex - "see" you at Nic's Baby Shower!

A little sneaky, peeky @ the Forest Canopy Shoulder Shawl. Still a way to go as I'm using size 4's instead of the recommended 8's. But oooh she is devine. Just look at the beautiful colorway. Thank You again Sue!
Aha! caught 'ya! One of my nieces in her newsboy cap. Hello Beautiful Alex...Whose your favorite Auntie?
And yet another...My Sister-in-Law Anna & daughter Alex. I love capturing 'hand-knits' in the wild. In Southern California it's a rare thing indeed. This ferocious beast was guarding the counter in the glass shop in San Diego where I purchased this. Click on pic to read the warning sign. Hilarious.
Finally, Thanks to everyone for all the nice Birthday wishes. I had a lovely weekend with friends & family. I'm thinking I might stick at 39 or possibly subtract a year instead of adding. I'll let you know what I decide next year when I turn 38. ;)
