Mondays Are For Makers….

Ok, so this is not a great picture of my Airy yarn and that is my fault…the lighting wasn't the best and I hate using a flash, but what I am going to show you in a little bit will show you just how much fun these colors really are!

I sometimes struggle to think of myself as a maker because it sounds a little presumptuous, even though most of what I have done over my life has been done with my hands.
 Years ago when I was a waitress, a palm reader came in and gave all of the girls some fun readings, but when she read my palm she became very quiet.  It was unsettling, but the one thing she did say to me was that the creativity in my hands would make me find my way in the world.  "A Maker"

(as a side note….the reasons for her quietness were made evident in the few difficult years that followed, but those years are probably what gave me the empathy for others that I have grown to embrace.)

Now for the fun part!!  How wonderful is @wonderplanned's usage of these colors that I sent to her last week??
When I am packaging up yarns for people, I try to put them in the bag in a way that I feel compliments each other…it gives me joy to see my yarns leave in a happy bag.

Go visit @wonderplanned aka Kristin Houston on Instagram and see her fun creations, beautiful patterns and her sweet little puppy!!
…and those nails?  How perfect are they for her soon to be new @westknits #bubblecardigan 
I LOVE it!!
