Good Fences ~ Edition 19 ~

For those of you who do not know, I am a knitter!!
On May 18, 2014, I went to...

Arrow Acres Farm
and took my very first knitting class.
The rest, as they say, is history.
We sit outdoors on the farm and this my friends is the view...
 


Can you see my dilemma...
knit or take pictures of these gorgeous animals?!
As I struggle to "pay attention" to the lovely Leanne,
visions of Alpaca are dancing through my head,
and across my line of vision.
 
But I sit, I listen and I learn as one love wins out over the other.

I am super excited to be sharing these pretty fences
that keep my Alpaca friends safe with
for Good Fences.
Stop by and consider joining in the fun, any fence or gate will do!!

I know the alpacas are so happy to see you!!

Unknown said...

Do both. Half day knitting and the other half photographing. Although I would get so disgraced with taking pictures, I would forget the knitting until it is to late:)

barbara l. hale said...

Love these photos! Alpacas have the sweetest little faces. I don't know that I could learn anything in that setting. Too many distractions. But good ones.

Stephanie said...

SOOO cute! My son loved your photos, as did I :) Hugs to you!

Karen said...

So darn cute Debbie!

Bonnie said...

You know I have been a knitter forever. I only wish I had such a lovely place to sit and create. I have a friend who own alpaca...they are sweet animals. I'm waiting to be offered a little of the alpaca yarn...enjoy, there is nothing that relieves stress better! Hugs! B

Gail Dixon said...

Haha, I know which one would win out for me. But you apparently can multi-task like a pro. :)

Willow said...

Awesome !!
I love their sign too.

Bethany Carson said...

The alpaca looks so neat! Great photos!

Suburban Girl said...

I visited an alpaca farm once and they were such sweet animals.

The Furry Gnome said...

We've got an alpaca farm near here too, though I don't knit!

LeAnn said...

You do take excellent pictures which I always love. I am so pleased with how you are doing with your knitting. You inspired me so now I am at least trying to do another crocheted baby blanket for my new great granddaughter.
Thanks for your sweet comment today.
Blessings and hugs!

Tina Fariss Barbour said...

Yes, that would be a dilemma. I would want to talk with and rub the soft-looking Alpacas! They have such sweet faces.

Susan said...

The Alpaca is so darn cute! I don't recall ever seeing one- thanks for sharing the beautiful photos.

Lisa Gordon said...

These are simply the most precious faces!
I can see how it might be difficult to concentrate on the knitting. :-)

Brian King said...

They have such funny faces! They make me laugh! :-)
