... got a long list of things to do ... photos to show you ... in no particular order ... the lofty inversion from the brooklyntweed spring thaw ... i love it ... will wear it tomorrow to the book signing at purlsoho for denyse schmidt’s new book on modern quilting ... the annie t-shirt in madelintosh merino lace is divine ... the leftovers should make at least another little movie star scarflet from the more last minute knitted gifts book ... and i know how to put a whole lot of other little bits of leftovers to perfectly good use ... am itching to cast on the madelinetosh prairie ... another annie t-shirt ... i think so ... the color is morning dove ... tones of blue ... can’t go too wrong there ... the madelinetosh prairie in terra will become the iggy shawl ... did i mention that one before ... the madelinetosh merino light made a perfect scarf or cowl ... gotta get some sewing under way ... and this and that and that and that ... is there anything you want to see or know ... tell us ...

... peep ... we're still here ...

... missing gumby girl very very much ... but adjusting to the absence ... pokey is learning new tricks and carefully and everywhere makes sure he is schlepping gumby’s favorite duck toy ... the one she got when i picked her up as a puppy ...

... and i have been swatching madelinetosh merino light ... madelinetosh prairie ... madelinetosh lace ... some koigu kpm ... some other sock yarn ... ah ... and the latest yarn swoon ... finally i just might say i love it too ... brooklyntweed’s loft ... wait ‘til you see ... casting on tomorrow and reporting as i go along ...

... and another little something on the back burner ...

... tante sophie’s pop-up studio ... master classes on a sunday morning in new york city ... coffee ... eggs over easy and the knitting is bright ... keep your eyes and ears open ...

... ttfn ... pokey needs my attention ... ha ha ... he might be shredding the pillow! something gumby wouldn’t have thought of in her wildest dreams!

... no more days ... RIP my gummy gumball GUMBY GIRL!
