bday

Sigh. Time flies. Work eats up too much of it. Anywho, it's been a while, but here's an update.

Mr. Mano treated me really well for my bday. His gift to me was getting my yarn room set up!

Shelves and vase to look pretty on them:

Stella likes it too!

Stella was soooo generous. She spent her whole allowance on this Schacht Ladybug for me!

And, I had a little surprise. The night before my bday, Mano proposed. I am engaged to be married!

My ring is sooooo sparkly!!!

Let's see, what else...
I finished these fingerless mitts, that I love love love!

The pattern is Flower Market Gloves by Dolce knits; the yarn is some vintage wool dyed by JocelynGermany paired with some solid Frog Tree alpaca.

I also finished my Simple Knitted Bodice. I love this sweater!

Thanks, Jocelyn. I'm getting lots of compliments on the mitts, which I attribute to your beautiful yarn!

Congratulations - on both the yarn room AND the engagement! Any man who's willing to set up a yarn room is a good man!

A wee bit jealous of the engagement, but HUGELY jealous of the yarn room ;-)

I hope you'll post about the ladybug; I've got one on my wish list, but I'd like to be able to get feedback from someone I know.

Regards,
