House Cleaning

| | Comments (13)

I've been doing some work on my blog this weekend. As you can see I added a header image. What do you think? After about 2 hours of searching online I decided to just take my own pic. I am so not a photographer though. Anyway, it's a change and I like that. So it will stay for a bit.

I also did some work on PTD this weekend. Top downs are hard to see how they're progressing when they're on the needles so I threaded some scrap yarn through so it could lay flat.

The Calmer is living up to my expectations beautifully. It's light as air and drapey. A few more rows and I'll be down to the sleeve body only.

I like the new header pic. And I like your top down sweater. I hope you are feeling better.

Beautiful pic! You are SO a photographer! I have to show it to Erin, she will love it. I'm so glad you are feeling better and back to blogging, I missed reading it.

That picture is FAB! My only suggestion would be it seems even better for a fall header image (the fallen leaves).

Still, it's Most Excellent, and you've inspired me to take some of my own knit-ish outside pictures!!!

Love the new header, and the PTD looks gorgeous! Can't wait to see those other colors added into the mix!

The header pic looks great Jody!!!! I do have to agree with the previous content about it being a rather "fallish" picture due to the leaves.

Maybe find some of that great stuff just coming up in your garden for a pic? Some tulips or other such early spring plants.

First Off, let me commend your clarity on this subject. I am not an expert on this theme, but after studying your article, my understanding has improved considerably. Please tolerate me to snap up your rss feed to stay in touch with any incoming updates. Delightful job and will pass it on to friends and my followers.
