Shetland sheep have changed my life and touched my heart. They have brought me joy, adventure and serenity. Follow along as I live each day influenced by memories of my mighty flock of mini sheep ~ aided and abetted by "Bellamica", the English Shepherd,"Sable", my livestock guardian dog and "Hero" the rescue dog that stole my heart! You'll also meet many of the homeless dogs that I rescue and rehome as part of Bluff Country Canine Rescue.

Guess what I'm making...
Sorry for not blogging earlier today.
I was busy...
I guess it COULD be any of those things. What it IS, is two socks on two circs! I've wanted to knit socks for years ~ and have even started once or twice. But I always ended up losing my place or worse yet, losing one of the double pointed needles and the stitches that were on it!
So, I decided to try something new. I figured that if I'm going to LEARN how to knit socks, I may as well learn how to do it using circular needles and since I know I'll never get around to knitting the second sock, the traditional way, this seemed like the most practical way to do it!
Wish me luck! I'll keep you posted...
P.S. Yes, it is homespun Shetland. From Alice. ;-)
Mittens?
