Well, now that my Beekeeper’s Quilt is no more I need another way to use up all that leftover sock yarn. I mean, look how much there is!
And I think I found the perfect project (just pretend I haven’t said that before…)

Not Even Gonna Try
I’m just going to say it. It’s been almost a year since my last post. I could give you a long list of excuses but I won’t. I will say this though, I really missed blogging and I’d like to ease myself back into it. What better way to start than with this year’s Evergreen Challenge? You might recall I’ve been been attempting to read my way through the list Evergreen Award nominated books for the past few years (2014, 2015, and 2016). The nominees for 2017 are:
- Tomboy Survival Guide, by Ivan Coyote
- The Spawning Grounds, by Gail Anderson-Dargatz
- Serial Monogomy, by Kate Taylor
- The Name Therapist, by Duana Taha
- Middle-Aged Boys & Girls, by Diane Brcuk
- How Can I Help, by David Goldbloom and Pier Bryden
- The Hidden Keys, by André Alexis
- Five Roses, by Alice Zorn
- Carry Me, by Peter Behrens
- The Break, by Katherena Vermette
The first one I picked up was Coyote’s Tomboy Survival Guide, I’ll be posting my thoughts on it soon (hopefully it won’t take an entire year!).
One Lovely Blog
I was honoured to receive a One Lovely Blog Award Nomination from The Novelty Knitter (thank you so much!).
This is a really interesting, pay-it-forward type of thing. The rules are simple, all you have to do is:
- Thank and link back to the person who nominated you
- List the rules and display the award
- Include seven facts about yourself
- Nominate around 15 other bloggers and let them know about the award (their About page is a good place!) (I’m still new to this so decided to do a Top Ten instead)
- Follow the blogger who nominated you
