Yarn Along

My Yarn Along posts are not very popular...
they don't get many views or comments, let's try to change that today.
If you're here, leave me a comment!


I am still working on my
Neapolitan Cowl
with DyeForMe Merino Baby Alpaca Yarn, it is a very soft yarn and a joy to work with.
This cowl is a smooth, easy knit...if you can knit and purl, you can master this cowl.


On another note,
our lilacs are blooming right now, lilacs have been my favorite flower since childhood.



I have a crush on my new "project bag"...
if you look closely at the top fabric, you can see the cute little lambs.



I love the way these fabrics all go together...
This bag is the perfect size to hold most smaller sized projects,
and it is the perfect size for holding this project.




I found these lilacs on an abandoned lot,
good thing I had my clippers with me.

In Newfoundland, my lilacs didn’t bloom until the third week in June.

Well, you know I love the lilacs....so soft and delicate looking but the PURPLE gets my attention for sure. I see that you are still working on projects. Good for you. BUT I love the bag, great for carrying your work with you and having it close when the mood strikes.

It's mandatory to always take clippers along one when one goes for a walk; just in case there is a pretty flower hanging over the fence. =) I can almost smell your sweet Lilacs. They have the sweetest fragrance, don't they. Your Neopolitan Cowl is looking fabulous and as for that sweet little lamb bag.....it's gorgeous. Happy knitting, lovely Debbie.

Your yarn a long is one of my favorites. I love to see your latest project. This Cowl is lovely. Lilac's are one of my favorites, too. It brings back memories of sitting with my grandmother on her back porch enjoying the fragrance of the Lilacs. Your photos are beautiful. We have a Lilac tree but it hasn't bloomed yet.
Blessings and hugs!

Both the flowers and your lovely work are delightful. You know there are a lot of people who view and read posts that never or rarely put on comments so I would not worry as long as YOU like doing what you are doing.

I missed this post I am glad you mentioned it in your last post. You are coming along great on your cowl. Wow I can't believe your lilacs are doing better than ours, we just have little buds on ours, this is the second year we have had it but still, can't wait for ours to bloom! That is a cute bag for your knitting!
