Floofys, Floofys, Everywhere

If you thought I was never coming back to post anything on my blog I have to confess I thought the same thing. Sometimes life just happens but hopefully my life will once again allow me to check in here more often. I firmly believe that knitting is good for the soul. It's a rhythmic, quiet, individual process that suits me just perfectly. I can't stop making Floofy's. If you read back several posts I got hooked on these while teaching for the Bewitching Stitchers SAGA group in Boston. Lucky for me, I will be going back to teach for the same guild in March and will get to revisit 'Yarns In the Farms' where all this started. The photos are of my two favorite Texas girls (oldest daughter and oldest grand daughter)wearing their birthday Floofy's and my gorgeous, good natured twelve year old wearing hers.

  1. The Floofys and models are all fabulous! I agree, knitting is great therapy even though my results are not nearly as stunning as yours!

  5. I was in your class at the MP School of Art Fashion. I loved every minute of the class and learned so much! I also love your skirt. I am a knitter, also. I think I may have to knit one if I can find any extra free time!

  6. So pleased you were able to post again. I missed your blogs. I love to knit too, and I agree, it is very theraputic! Take good care of yourself.
