Congrats! You won some gorgeous yarn. Heh - you know I took a substantial break in the middle of my moderne, too. I think it's a smart thing to do.

Knitting a blanket is a task that needs built in breaks... you might go crazy other wise.

Let me know if you need more Mission Falls. I've got quite a bit in stash. Best of luck with putting the finishing touches on your Log Cabin.

Congratulations on your winning swag! Pretty stuff.

My Log Cabin wasn't a stash buster either. Oh well. I've got to finish it, one of these days.

That Highlander cardigan is beautiful. Variegated yarn with stitch patterning? Ex-cell-ent.

That's lovely yarn, and I adore beeswax candles!

I know the light feeling of an empty gradebook and waiting needles -- enjoy!

Hi Jodi, saw your comment on Posie's blog, re sewing machines. I'd suggest going to a local sewing machine shop, and ask for a good secondhand machine, a Bernina or a Janome. Don't be sucked in by lots of fancy stitches - no-one ever uses them. Hope this helps.
