Obviously many things must have happened between now and September! I have moved back to the Piney Woods and am loving how every day when I drive to school at sunrise there is a different picture almost every time. Lately the weather has been diverse. Sometimes there is so much fog you cannot see but 30 feet in front of you. Sometimes there is less and you can see the outline of the skelaton like branches of the trees. There has been snow and ice, heavy on the branches and truly a wonderland emerged. Other times the sunrise is so beautiful to see on a clear day. The sun can be yellow, orange, pink. The pine trees are magical and I wish I could stop every time to go explore. I'm pretty sure that is illegal, being private property. I hate fences sometimes.
I have visited the people at First Monday that have the yarn for sale and sheep farm. I think it's called Golden Fleece farms. The guy there showed me how to weave. I think that I would like to try that sometime, weaving.
I finished a couple projects and gave them as gifts for Christmas. I still have a bunch of yarn to work with though and have been stagnant due to time. My new job certainly does not allow for knitting like my old one did. Hopefully over spring break I'll pick it back up!
I'm going to the Irish festival this weekend in Dallas. I'm going to ask around for people who know about Irish fisherman sweaters. :)
