Today's Fair Isle Friday project brings me to a stopping point on my Oregon Cardigan for this month (and probably through May - I'll pick it back up in June). Again, I got the yarn and pattern card as a kit from Alice Starmore's Virtual Yarns site. I have about 5 rounds left to knit… Continue reading Oregon Cardigan – April 29, 2021

Book Review: A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
If you're a YA/fantasy book reader, you've likely already read this (and others in the series) by this author, but for those of you who haven't........This is book 3 of 5 in the series.

I may look for further books read by her just to enjoy listening to her lovely voice. This historical fiction novel is based around the… Continue reading Book Review: Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell
Getting (re)Started
I've been thinking about restarting a blog for a while now. I have tried several online journaling platforms but hadn't really found anything I liked or that I stuck with for any length of time. I had a fairly active blog several years ago but it went by the wayside as I expanded my business… Continue reading Getting (re)Started
