Something for Valentines Day
I discovered this site. Probably everyone except me knows about it.

There are some really nice shawl patterns. I am putting off any knitting content. I have a pile of sock cuffs that are headed to sock hell. It is too shameful to take pictures of. In a week I have knitted 6 sock cuffs and no socks. bah I just can’t settle down to anything. Do you ever feel like that? Things look interesting, but not so interesting that you want to cast on. I need a swift kick in the bum
Also I find it really interesting that Interweave Press set up a KAL even before their Sock book was available. Never mind, I am just cold and cranky 
My computer is located in the room over the garage. I have a small heater up here, but it is a bit on the chilly side. In the summer it is very warm.
ohhhhhhhhhhh Someone gave me a Valentines Present. Someone who knows I am nutty about these things. It is long so you might not want to watch the whole thing. The place is just magic

What a beautiful, beautiful video!! Thank you so much for sharing that. I wondered at the very first moment, the horseshoe shape, if that was Iguacu. About 30 years ago I bought a jazz album by a group called Passport, with the title and cover photo of Iguacu. And I’ve since seen other panoramic photos, but the sound and sights are more than I ever imagined. I will be sharing this with lots of friends. I wonder if the turntable still works??

No scary things popping up here. I hate being scared. The only scary things around here, is my knitting
There is another video at YouTube. It is very short and from the Nature program. Full of flyovers. But this is closer I think to what you would see if you were there

Oh, I would never want to leave. I love being near water and the sounds of water. This is truly a wondrous place.
Unfortunately I do know about restless knitting syndrome. Cast on a pile of stuff and then get nowhere. I usually end up winding it all back up.

I’ve been to the Vintage Knits site, but haven’t made anything yet. I love that style!

I can totally relate to restless knitter syndrome (it must be related to February blahs). I did finish a pair yesterday, but early in the week had 9 pairs of socks started, 2 sweaters, 2 scarfs and a pair of mitts. I won’t mention the “banished” WIP;s
. The good thing is, we aren’t alone!
