I like the idea of a word a day to interpret. You amaze me with how you manage your time! I would never be able to fit so much into my day.

the mel-mel barn barter
i'm always on the lookout for opportunities to barter goods, in planning for the barn party silent auction i asked my dear friend, the extremely talented melinda at quirky granola girl, if she would make something for the auction, and if so, what she would like in return. she donated this ama...
Does a lit fire mean that it's chilly in your neck of the woods? It looks so inviting and cosy. I am currently reading some no brainer chick-lit - all I can concentrate on right now. I have a couple of books ready and waiting for my next school holiday. My knitting has been in a bit of a slump for the last couple of weeks, school has taken over a bit. I have a mountain of gift knitting and might have bitten off a bit more than I can chew!

coming back around to the circles...
i promise i haven't completely forgotten my crochet circles. they've been sitting in nice little stacks on my dining room table since apparently june 28th... i just got swept up in summer; the traveling, the unsuspected reappearance of blankie, the need to finish the barn ripple before the dea...

You cannot beat Lucy's Ripple pattern for a totally fabulous blanket. I am working on a couple of swap gifts right now and am about to start reading a book about the history of the city I live in. It sounds really interesting.
