Project Updates

Marsha continues to work on Cloud Cover by Heidi Kirrmaier. It has an unusual construction. Knit yoke, then sleeves, then body, then collar. Marsha is hoping she doesn\u2019t run out of yarn before that big shawl collar is done.

Marsha has carded a bunch of Wensleydale x Corriedale x Merino fleece and has been spinning it. This fleece is a gorgeous dark espresso color! More spinning is in Marsha\u2019s plans for 2019.

Kelly has also been mostly monogamous on the knit front with the Mystery Knit Along with Cozy Up Knits. \xa0She\u2019s using the Two Ewes Replenish Rambouillet and loving the feel of the yarn. \xa0The shawl pattern is interesting and will result in a 3 color shawl in 5 weeks. No pictures of the full project because it\u2019s a mystery!

2019 Dreams and Schemes

Kelly and Marsha are both training for distance walking this year. \xa0Kelly will be walking the Big Sur 21-Miler in April with her Dad who will turn 79 in March. Marsha got a copy of her training schedule and plans to follow the training, but not do the event.
