I began my knitting journey slowly--a few gifts for Christmas--a couple of hats and scarves. Then along came the Loopy Ewe challenge. I couldn't resist. I have completed the first two challenges. But then word came of Camp Loopy. I told myself no--just stick with the quarterly challenge. But I found a beautiful shawl courtsey of Ginny. I order a beautiful lemon yellow Cascade Heritage silk yarn. Now you might think it difficult to wait until May 27 to "go" to camp but---I am also taking part in the Ravelry group, Madelinetosh Lovers' challenge Madelintosh MadMay12 ! I am attempting to complete 3 projects. the good news is that Nellie is almost done. I just need to buy the buttons to complete it. I have casted on my socks. I think it is a pipe dream that I will even cast on Vodka Lemonade. But a girl can dream.

Camp Loopy
Have I mentioned that I have knitting fever? Knitting was my first love many years ago until I discovered the world of quilting, applique and stitchery. So my yarn and needles were retired but just for awhile. I caught the "bug" from Judy L. She seduced introduced me to a few very special knitting sights on her blog.
