grass

I’ve always loved the color green.  Even when I thought my favorite color was something else, there was always a love for the color green in there.  I can remember the green crayon in a pack of Crayola’s being my favorite.  I used to make sure that my pictures always had grass and trees in them so that I could use my green crayon. 🙂

I’m a knitter and if there’s one thing you should know about knitters is that we generally are the ones giving the knitting while no one really knits for us.  I’m a part of our local Knitting Guild here though and six months ago we were given the opportunity to participate in a secret swap.  Each participant had to bring in enough of their yarn to make a scarf, cowl, or shawl.  I picked a scarf because I’m not a shawl or cowl person.  The yarn that each person brought was then packed up into secret brown paper bags and mixed up among other members.  I got someone’s yarn and had to make a scarf for her while someone else got my yarn and made a scarf for me.  Tonight was the reveal night and I got my scarf back.  I’m in LOVE!  I’ve had this sock yarn for a few years and have always loved it but never picked a project for it.  Judy who did the knitting for me made this beautiful scarf and I just adore it.  It’s so wonderful to have someone knit for me for a change!
