It’s been a project in the making for quite a while. Our sister-in-law asked if Karen would knit her an afghan. In February she and we shopped together for the yarn knowing that it take some time. The project traveled with us this summer growing in scale as we logged the miles. Eventually it got too bulky to work on in the front seat of the truck and stayed just tucked-in in the back seat. Now it’s a living room project. It’s once again growing in length add we watch concerts on Qello. Only four of nineteen balls of yarn left. Could it be finished before the year is done?
It’s turning out nicely. It’s a cotton yarn and a dream to knit with. Dovie picked out the colors and the waffle check stitch. Hopefully it will be comfy and pretty enough to merit a place in their lives and their living room for years to come.
It is sooooo beautiful! I can’t wait to have an original Karen Thole piece in our house. Thank you for all the loving time and work that has gone into it.
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
Beautiful colors and yarn, truly a treasure in the making!

Got a few more rows stitched this evening while watching “Mary Poppins”!
