Happy New Year

For some reason, starting a new year seems like there is new hope for things. It feels like a change can actually happen. This year my focus is going to be on having fun and enjoying myself. I have my online store to work on. I have my kids who are getting to a really fun age. My husband and I will have our motor finished by the spring so we can cruise around in our camaro this summer and maybe go to Mission Raceway Park a few times. I have a feeling that this is going to be one good year!

On to other news. Lorna's Laces has arrived and is now up online Valley Yarn. We will receive the new Noro Kureyon Sock Yarn in January as well. We have ordered all 12 colors. There is a sale on right now with 10% off everything in the store until Jan 8.

I haven't posted for awhile because of the holidays and because I was working night and day trying to finish my mom's Christmas gift (featured below - sorry for the blurry picture, our camera needs some serious help).

Last night I started a pair of socks for myself. I am going to fit some knitting in for myself but I am going to budget my time because I was so behind this past Christmas and that really takes the fun out of it for me.

I don't have a plan for this sock yet. I just cast on last night and started the ribbing. I love Lorna's Laces. It is so beautiful and soft. This color is 901 Baltic Sea and I am using Knitpicks 3.25 mm harmony needles (which I love love love and they're very pretty).
