Ok, just another picture of the Noro scarf, but check out the fern in the background, see how raggedy it is? Joey has decided lately that it is really really tasty to eat the fern!

The Noro Scarf is done!
4 skeins with mere inches left in each skein at the bind off, which was somewhat surprising since one of the skeins was a fair bit shorter than the others.

It bloomed really nicely when blocked, and ended up not being as bright as I had feared with the big sections of bright green in it.

Happy Birthday Mom!

I must be one of the last people on the planet to knit one of these scarves. But after the Yarn Harlot's post fueled a Noro scarf making frenzy at work, I was powerless to resist.



MMM...Silk Garden without being too crazy and bright. I am loving the squishiness of the K1P1 rib. Should be warm!

I am trying a new CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) from Full Circle Farm. The pick up location for it is one someones front porch in my location, which surprised me a lot, but is really cool too!



My parents and brother recently also started doing a CSA, and my brother always says that he can taste the difference most in the carrots- so much crunchier and tastier than store ones. Probably helps that they are not big carrots whittled down to "baby" sized nubs.
