It’s Friday… Ahhhh… The weekend is almost here!!!  Lots of projects to work on… End of summer days to enjoy the outdoors and a new project off the hook…

Last night I needed a break from pattern writing for my upcoming hat… Sadie…  I love her,,, But, my mind spins with pattern writing!!  So, I sat down with some new yarn I bought a couple of weeks back… Mohair, Acrylic and Sequins… Yummm!!!!  With fall beginning to creep in our air here in Northern California… I decided some nice new cowls would be great for my Etsy Shop!!  And wow… They were quick and easy and with this fabulous yarn they are so beautiful!!
