Robin Shawl done! By Lee Meredith in Kinu silk by Ito Yarns – 612 yards
Wips
New –Tanwen by Thayer Preece, aka ilikecake, a reversible scarf. Don’t want to giveaway secret sauce, she uses ribbing to make it reversible, but I rib slowly, so I changed those sections to stockinette to add speed – need to give it away June 9th!
Pattern Stalking
Changing Staircases by Trysten Molina a Harry Potter themed shawl with “Stairs” of knitting and lace that increase lengths. I saw it on Deb Brown’s Instagram page and LOVED it

I will be there Sunday for a photography class by Shanon and Jason Mullett-Bowlsby in the afternoon and hanging around the market in the morning. I'll be wearing my pink Mommy's Tunic - stop by and say hello!
In The Garden
Got out in the garden! Planted lots of seeds – carrots, parsnips, turnips & beets; sugar snap peas; kale; Brussel sprouts
Started seeds for more tomatoes, cucumbers, watermelon & impatiens
Supplies to mend fence
On the Run
Still no running allowed, cleared to walk a little – half a mile! But it’s something. As I mentioned I have 30 year old scar tissue from surgery as a baby causing some problems in my ankle and when the scar tissue releases your ankle has to re-learn how to use all the muscles and tendons so you have to be careful until you build up more strength
