D is for.....



Daffodils from my neighbors house. Sadly mine have not sprouted flowers yet! Here in NC the weather has been so mixed up....most of our spring plants are already starting to bloom and it isn't even March yet! So I will have a few more as the early budding progresses.

D is also for Dulaan. I decided to alternate between knits for me and the family to make a hat or scarf for them or the babies at the hospital, whichever one I feel like knitting. I have the yarns set aside, some from my early knitting days, some free, and some purchased at a great bargin just for this. So upon feeling a little down from being unable to finish my Olympic bag...I cast this on about 1am today and finished also today.. I just needed to finish something! So here is hat #2 (hat #1 is the FIL way to small hat from knitmas). hehe!



Lambs Pride Bulky in Orange you glad and Patons Divine in Floral Fantasy.. Really soft and I hope will be warm.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST! Kaleidoscope Yarns had a skein in the LP Wild Oak I needed...They were very fast in responding to my plea to make sure it was in stock before I ordered...I tell you with my luck on things lately..It is ready to be shipped! I cannot wait to finish!!

Very cozy looking hat. And I'm glad you were able to find more yarn to finish your bag. Bummer you ran out! Daffodils already?! Thanks for sharing them.

Wow, that's some speedy knitting! The hat is really cute.

I'm so glad to hear about the bit of good luck with the extra yarn too.

Daffodils remembered me on my childhood - the most beautiful ever. I have been living by the see, we have laways has some flowers and I was giving daffodils to my Mom on 8th of march (International Day of Women). Shit, I am going to cry!
