Everything is clean and washed and green. We've been dry--but last week we got 4.5" (DH was cheering--our corn and soybeans will grow like crazy now) and while we were gone this weekend we got another inch. I'm able to avoid the knitting bug--but I love to see what everyone else is making.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02930975280752577392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537635298413013528.post-32964865897438605572013-07-22T21:37:02.410-05:002013-07-22T21:37:02.410-05:00We are so tempted by all kinds of projects as craf...We are so tempted by all kinds of projects as crafting people in this techno world.

I like doing socks but honestly I can't wear them often as my feet start sweating. But I like your progress. Maybe you should work up to one of those beautiful lacy shawls? Don't you hate it when the thread gives you grief on the long arm? Maybe everything needs to be rethreaded and given encouraging words? I love a good book too which frequently gets me behind on other things!Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04758275644964547751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537635298413013528.post-88191278467105834252013-07-22T08:00:55.367-05:002013-07-22T08:00:55.367-05:00Awesome rainbow!!
