It’s another grey day in the Berkshires, but that’s ok! Today, I’m washing up this gorgeous Lincoln fleece from my girl Gladiola! She’s got the most lustrous, well defined curls. 🐑🩷

A beautiful, sunny day for stretching our legs and snacking on dandelions.

Thank goodness for @tifneilan_handknits #waffleridgescarf wip between basketball games. It’s been nonstop basketball games for Sam and Noelia this weekend. So having a knitting project that’s easy to work on while we wait for games to start has made me feel a little productive at least.

All looks calm and peaceful here, but 30 minutes prior a jailbreak happened and it was pandemonium.

Snow angels 🐻‍❄️❄️🐻‍❄️. It’s been frigid the past few days, but the polar pups love this weather.

I’m back from the dead! The flu totally wiped us all out and I’m just now starting to feel human again! Thanks for all of your well wishes and checking on us. It definitely helped us feel better.

Happy ❤️Valentine’s Day!
🐑💌🐻‍❄️
It’s a sad kind of day Valentine’s Day here, as we’ve all been picked off by the flu. But in a way, it’s really nice to spend the day together lounging around.

I have finally decided on the pattern that I’m going to knit for our SamanthAlong SAL! Chalet Days is what I’ll be casting on. The graphic yoke was too good to pass up. Now, the next step is choosing which yarn combo I’m going to knit. Which one do you lean more towards?

More than ever, I think we need strong, supportive communities. I’d love for you to join the community that I’ve created, if you’re interested in learning about sheep and wool, polar pups, fiber arts, our Mexican collaborations, and other fun things along the way.

And speaking of communKNITy…there’s still time to join our SamanthALong!  I’ve narrowed it down to two patterns, Chalet Days and Fall Frolic! Which one should I choose?  What pattern of Samantha’s @samantha_guerin_design would you love to knit? All the details of the SAL and how to sign up can be found on our website.
