As you know, my husband, Grant Madden is an accomplished writer. Last June or July, Grant wrote a story which was picked up by a local publication. That is when the fun began.....
I enjoy cheering and encouraging Grant's writing content knowing that behind every great man is a woman riding him like a country mule to achieve his goals and get his "stuff" published.......but I digress....
About a week ago, Grant came home with a snicker and grin said "There is going to be a photo shoot for the cover of the publication that is running my story". I replied with the typical, "that's great, when is it?" Trying to concentrate on my Craftsy class, Adventures In Double Knitting, when I thought I heard Grant say "they want you in the photos".
"Huh?"
"What?"
Grant smiles and walks away, saying just barely loud enough, "oh and they want your yarn and one of your unfinished projects as well"...........
Today I found out what that was all about, during the photo shoot that took place this afternoon. All I can tell you at this point is, my legs are burning and I got three rows done on my Loopy Scarf.
Stay tuned.....
On a hot summer day with the top down on my convertible, I came to a stoplight. I picked up my knitting, using this time wisely, I started to knit. A trucker in the next lane said "HEY LADY, the light is going to turn green and you are going to hold up traffic!!" I politely responded "RELAX!!! This is a 6 STITCH LIGHT!" Then I raced to the next light hoping to catch another red!

Janeva is modeling the completed Aethercopter scarf. I'd make another one, as this was a fun knit.
Neck band for Aethercopter
I enjoyed making this neck band it has great detailing making it so interesting.
Still Knitting and Stuff
Well after a long hiatus from blogging I have decided to step up and get back to blogging. I have had a lot going on and trying to find balance with the current economy and trying to keep my head above water, as I'm sure most of you can relate.
While I have been away from blogging, my knitting and crocheting has still kept me busy as well. One of my favorite scarf patterns is the Aethercopter. which I knitted in Amy Butler's Belle Organic DK.
This scarf was a quick project and looks so much more difficult than it is. The pattern is written beautifully which always makes a project more successful.
