Pastels and Neutrals

This time of year can be rather drab and leave you feeling washed up.  This is when I like to add some pretty pastel colors or neutrals to brighten up the house and my spirit.  I hope you like them!

Knitting for Dummies

Hi Everyone,

I have been busy trying to re-teach myself how to knit again.  It's been years since I've done any knitting and always found it therapeutic.  Thank God there is You Tube out there to refresh my memory on how to cast on and off and the basic knit and purl stitches.  It is amazing how quickly it all come back to you.

These are the colors I'm trying to incorporate into an afghan
It is going to be a long time before I get this done but it does give me something to do when it is cold outside and I can do it without thinking too much about any one thing.

So, for the time being, I will be content to knit away in hopes of finishing this sometime in the future and when I say future I mean future!   HA

I've also just made a nice little boudoir pillow for my bed in a lovely pale blue linen.  I love the color blue...my favorite color.

Pay no attention to the bed pillows without their cases on...I just changed our bed sheets and hadn't put the pillow cases on them when I took this photo.  HA

Anyway, this  is what I've been up to for the past few days.  How about you?  What have you been doing?

For those of you in the North, I hope you are covered up with a nice throw drinking something warm.  I'm even doing that here and I'm sure it's not near as cold as where some of you live.  :)
