Stitches etc.

That Shakespeare rose again

I have been knitting for over 30 years and have always used

loops of yarn in a contrasting colour as stitch markers,

but when I saw these on ravelry I just couldn't resist.

This beautiful yarn was spun for me as part of a swap!

Not the most perfect specimen in the garden, but finally blooming, after relocation.

I know these are weeds, but look how pretty dandelions can be:

This is going to be my next quilt - yet another from the Jelly Roll book!
