For Mom



It's my mom's 72nd birthday this week!



I wanted to surprise her so I spent several weeks working on something for her.



She just got it in the mail. I think she likes it.

Happy Birthday mom!

  1. Of COURSE she likes it. I know her. She's an intelligent, stylish, lovely person with two eyes that work. What's not to like? Ginna - are you reading this?

  6. Misty, When I saw the yarn I fell in love with the colors. Can't go wrong with red right?

    Korrie, Me too!!!! I'm working on a ruffly lace scarf right now out of bamboo yarn. Bamboo yarn! Who'd have thought bamboo would be made into yarn? I'll post photos when I am done. When I'm finished it will have over 2000 stitches on the needle....ugh! :D
