Did You Miss Me?

I knew things hadn't been right lately.  I knew I had been neglecting certain things.  I had no idea I hadn't posted since April:  Man, where does the time go.

I could make all sorts of excuses but that's all they would be.  If I had really wanted to be here, I would have been here.

Remember the picture of my son a few months ago?  Well, sixteen has NOT been very kind.  My son has been replaced by a monster I do not recognize.  The last day of school was Wednesday and I think I am even more happy about it than he is. 

What was I saying.....Oh yes, "I'm back."  I may not have been here but that does not mean I have not been thinking about all the wonderful things I want to do.  I did make a lovely wreath for our dear friend, Ronnie aka Ronzo for Memorial Day.  He is a Vietnam Veteran and I just wanted to let him know he was remembered.  I want to make another one for our front door before July 4 gets here. 

For the month of June 2014 ALYOF I am going to try to complete, "The Hitchhiker."  It is a lovely scarf/shawl that I have made before and I found this amazing yarn for this time around.  The author of this pattern can be found on Ravelry.  I have knit a number of her patterns and they are not only easy to read but easy to work and they turn out beautiful.

I know you cannot really see this very well and I'm having issues
with the camera on my phone but I promise I'll take some really
great pictures when I finish the scarf.  Here is the yarn I will be using
and I have already started. 

Martina Behm is the author/creator.  Check her out on www.ravelry.com I promise you'll love her patterns.
