Happy New year and welcome to 2020! I will admit that I am still working on setting goals and trying to outline what this year will look like for RSBSY. I feel that this year will be full of changes and adjustments as life is getting busier and am about to embark on a personal journey of sorts unrelated to the yarnie world. -

Surprise Party Shawl by Helen Stewart

Hey guys,Welcome back! Ash and I had an awesome weekend last weekend! I decided that it was unfair that I didn't get March break anymore and decided to take an extended weekend to Ottawa to visit the fam! I even made it down early enough to have an impromptu knit night with a couple of friends that I don't get to see nearly often enough. We had a blast!

I'm definitely going to have to try this pattern again (sans gin) to find out exactly where I went awry. In any case, both mitts are done and blocked and the ends are in the process of being woven in.

There is also a huge pile of wips that have to be finished up but more on that in another post.
Stop by the blog and see what I have been dreaming about
