Did you see the new Twist Collective is up? I think I’m in love with every single pattern in this issue.  Alas…that tends to be the case with every one of their issues.  Oh to have more knitting time…and knitting talent.

1.  Choosing Christmas songs for the kids at church to sing.  Considering my usual lack of Christmas spirit, this is one holiday task that I pretty much enjoy.  I like hearing all the different versions of traditional carols that have been recorded and then I like to hear new songs too.  BUT… having to listen […]

Dear NaBloPo….blah blah blah There are days when there is nothing to say.  I think you should be a bit more gracious about that.  They don’t want to read it anymore than I want to write it. Just a thought. Love, Kris
