So, um, Happy Ash Wednesday? :-D
I do like Lent. We'll talk about that more in a second. First: Yarn!
This is a completed Barton Cottage Crafts commission--it's my signature basketweave scarf in the weathervane colorway. The colors are much richer in person. In the line this is my "Jane Bennet" color--I think it suits Jane quite well. :)
I'm currently working on a shawl for another customer, in a deep yellow color. When I have more of it to show, I'll post a picture. At the moment, it's a very small triangle!
My shawl is coming along gorgeously! I'm finally into the blue stripes!
What are you reading right now?
My Lenten Rule
AKA, what I'm doing for Lent.
1) Giving up book buying (except at the Catholic Women's Conference this weekend--and actually, my book buying has dropped off a lot this year since I'm focusing on my financial goals. So go me!)
2) Attending weekday Mass at least once a week
3) Confession every other week
4) Doing Nancy Ray's Contentment Challenge again. You can read ore about it on Nancy's blog here and here . Here are the first month guidelines! I think Lent is a perfect time to kick this off.
And of course, Above All. You can still join us! Order the book, pop into the blog, or join us on facebook, twitter, and instagram.
