it is dark lavendar and yummy

I finished my second crocheted hat tonight--and I love it...I expanded the expansion part of the pattern so it actually fits my head. When get a picture I'll post it and you will all go, "Wow--I want one too!" I am ready to start another...it is calming to work on. Now, mind you I really only know one stitch and will someday have to learn more. Maybe a scarf is in my near future.

It was a beautiful day--most of which I missed...I saw some of it out the window and could see that the lilac tree is just bursting to bloom its branches off.

Time for bed and to finish my first Miss Silver book. I know this is fiction--but my word that woman knits fast!

Have I mentioned that my MINI had to go back to the "workshop?" I hope it comes home to me soon - all intact and ready to compute. I miss its sweet smallness.

Well it finally happened. I learned how to crochet--well, I learned one stitch and I am trying it out on my first beanie. My sweetie learned from his sister and I listened--I had tried and failed many times over in the last few months....so he made a beanie first and I started wearing it--my thinking cap is what I call it--and then I said, "Okay I am ready." And he showed me--over and over---the nice thing about crochet is that is incredibly easy to pull out and start over anywhere along the way! So he did the center of the beanie and got me started...I finally hit the aha! moment and here is how far I am. It has an amazing rhythm to it....we'll see how it looks when it is finished...
