A stone path travels through the garden, across a bit of grass before ending at the dirt road that is my driveway. I walk it on my way to the shop. Nice commute.

walk with me wednesday
through the years…
On August 1st, smatterings walked through another year and I didn’t even notice. I thought I’d go back through my files and look at some of the banner images I’ve used through the years. Starting with the first in 2003:
There were others, there will be more. Some of you have walked with me for a long time, others, I’ve only just met. Thanks for your company, it’s been great.

Hey………… that means it’s my Blogiversary too!We both started at the same time although we began with our ISP then you went to Typepad and I went to Blogger. Remember when I found our first template!

Happy Blogiversary! I for one, am glad to have “met” you 🙂 Here’s to many more!

Congratulations! The bottom banner reminds me of that silly song, “lama, lama, lama, duck.” Except of course with sheep instead of lamas and alpacas instead of ducks. As a newbie, I’m glad I found you!
-
Happy Blogiversary, Judy! May you have many more.
-
Congratulations on your blogiversary. I always look forward to “seeing” what you have seen on your walks, and sharing your woolly thoughts.

Happy blogiversary! I remember those banners. Has it really been that long? You’ve been an excellent part of my blog and real life.

Congratulations on your blog anniversary (albeit a couple of days later). The banners are all very impressive pictures; while the one with the sea and the wave must be older than the time I discovered your blog, I think it is my favourite. Thanks for sharing the beauty that surrounds you in such a creative way.

Happy Belated Blogiversary!!!

hot, cold, & sock yarn
Read a chapter, jump in the pond and cool off, move chair wherever the breeze blows (if there is one is blowing), read chapter, jump in the pond, … Last week was hot, rip your clothes off hot. Today is cold. Cold enough that C has been wearing a knit cap, and socks. Perfect day, I thought, for dyeing. By 7:30 this morning, I had the dye pot going. Then the skies opened up, the lightening snapped and flashed, and the thunder….well Bu went and hid under the bed. I got one batch of yarn in the pot before I decided that standing on a dirt floor under a steel roof, stirring a pot of water heating on an electric burner, in the pouring rain, made no sense at all. It’s been one of those days. I don’t have as much to show as I’d like. The Harry Potter is finished, and digested. Some of the alpaca / merino / silk blend I carded over the weekend has been spun just "to see".
Here are a couple of the colors that I did manage to dye on the days when it wasn’t SO hot.
Gourd sock yarn
Sure looks bright in that picture, it isn’t. Shades of orange, subtle to a bright rosy orange with khaki undertones. Guess I need to photograph it in better light. I made a pair of socks from this colorway last fall or winter. I tried to go back to reference it, but waiting for pictures to load on dial up.. not in this lifetime.
Dress Blues sock yarn

Have Gourd from the last batch- drool worthy indeed!

Love the gourd. And the cloud. And the lichen . . .
-
I love your description of the thunderstorm. Everyone likes gourd up there. I like Dress Blues!
-
Oooo nice! I like them both!
-
The blue does it for me. Beautiful!!
-
beautiful new colors! Today seems to be shaping up well weatherwise too. Sounds like it might stay cool!

Ooohhh….is this the alpaca lace? It’s lovely! I can’t wait for the merino/silk yarn…..so far it is my favorite of all yarns to knit with 🙂
Simply scrumptious!
Daylilies and matching yarn – I’m in heaven.
Honestly Judy, you really manage to capture beautiful colors in your dyepot! It is always great to see what you have been doing at “work”.
Wow! Those colors are incredible! How do you do that???
Wow Judy, they are lovely !
Vibrant Colors! I want to surround my life with color these days. I continue to dream of buying your yarn. I figured out yardage for weaving but since have been dreaming of a couple different projects. We’ll see which wins.
Wow. What heaven. Silence, yarn, daylilies.
