Marialis – Day 1
I got quite a bit done on the Marialis scarf (Ravelry link to pattern) last night. I wasn’t so sure about the way the colors were looking after the first 14 rows, but I kept going, trusting that I’ll like it better when it’s further along. I had a couple of times I had to…

Frank is mine!!!!!
bwahahahahahaha!!!!!!! “Frank is an other-worldly escapee of Erik’s Menagerie made of kermit green fleece and celestial fabric. He requires no oxygen or food, but does enjoy spice of all types. Quite often when he appears to be staring off into space he’s merely searching for the nearest sandbox to play in. He’s really very friendly,…
