Keeping Busy

 Keeping busy this winter has not been difficult for me.
I have way too many hobbies, and I don't mind being at home crafting.

I have been coloring a lot recently, something I have not done since last year.


This book was gifted to me by my friend Liz...
Nature's Inspiration



The Hydrangeas colored are my favorite so far...

I am almost finished with the birds.
I tried to color the birds to look like the birds I see at my feeders.
I only color during the day, when the house is lighter.


I am also working on my 3rd blanket.
This is a blanket kit for beginners, and although I have been knitting for 10 + years,
I find these kits fun and inspiring.
The kit from Sierra Yarn includes everything you need to make the blanket.
All of the yarn, the circular needle, the pattern and a tag for the finished product.
It is their Dream Cloud Blanket in light blue/ivory.
The yarn is 60% Baby Alpaca and 40% Pima Cotton, it is as soft as a cloud.

I work on my blanket at night, I am able to knit on the blanet
and watch t.v. at the same time!

I love coloring too! I just found in my stash, a gift someone gave me, an adult coloring book. My granddaughter is 8 and she LOVES to color. She was over last night for supper and spied it. I said, you can color a page. She is very detailed, so this book was a good challenge for her. I only have other "baby" type color books. (according to her, wink, wink)
