Alls Well That Ends Well, Right? ~
By Sarah | May 7, 2008
I don’t know what to say except that I am overwhelmed with gratitude with the sweet, kind and understanding responses that I’ve received regarding the yarn base issue. Is it any wonder why I think you guys are so lovely? Again, I can’t thank you enough. Now I think I need to come up with some sort of fun cowl pattern for the sportweight version – what do you think?
On another note – Spring has totally and completely sprung around these parts (I know, it’s a little late, but this is the MidWest) and Mr. Plucky is hard at work on the patio garden. Don’t you just love a guy who works in the garden?
And, I realize this may come as a total shock, but I still knit! Really, I do. It’s not all yarn dyeing, yarn base angst, teen drivers and their Volvos and gardening. I am this closeto finishing…. well, can you guess? Hmmm. I’ll keep you waiting. Maybe I can finish it up tonight and share tomorrow. Then, back to the No Purl Monkey. Wouldn’t do to have that start talking to me again.
Still with me? Ok. One last thing – as requested, I dyed up a bunch of Summer of Love (in the MCN Sport Weight that I thought was fingering weight, but I digress) and it is now the shop. Which means that as soon as the fingering MCN arrives I will dye that up and let everyone that was interested know. In the meantime…. these lovelies are up for grabs.
These and lots of other lovelies have been added to the shop.

More gorgeousness – thank you for sharing – I don’t mean the husband (because I would never say that about someone else’s husband, even if I thought it – haha!) – better watch myself – I meant the yarn. I love a man who works around the house – warm fuzzies for sure!

Yum….and the yarn is lovely too.
I’m SO kidding, Plucky! Husband stealing is not my style. I just couldn’t resist the joke.
Hope you’re enjoying the nice weather. I can’t wait for Saturday to get here. A sheep and wool festival is on the books. More stashing in store for me.

Yeah B is looking really cute…even when he’s gardening..I know I’ve made him blush in the past with the cutie pie compliments…but you guys are the cutest couple ever.
Can’t wait to see the finished……top down sweater? And you better hurry up or some weirdo will make your monkeys speak again.

Where did you get that fabulous Eiffel tower in your garden?

Your garden looks really neat. Is that a raised garden? I would like to do that in our yard. Is it hard to do? Also, your new yarn is beautiful. I would like to order some once I find a pattern worthy of it!
