I have been enchanted.
Spellbound.
Charmed.
Bewitched.
By this:
All it took was some mesmerizing blue silk with beads and some wooden needles.
I can't put this down.

- A slightly crazy, sort-of-stay-at-home-mom of 2, obsessive compulsive knitter who is married to a Commercial Lobsterman, and all the fun that goes with that! I live on an island eight miles out to sea. A very, very small island, with no gas stations, restaurants, or grocery stores. No Shopping!! (We're trying to change that last one.) I run our local Post Office, am Chair of the School Board, President and Treasurer of the Frenchboro Preschool (temporarily closed), and serve on the board of the Frenchboro Future Development Corporation. One day, I had a free minute, and started writing a book. When friends, family, and neighbors asked what I do all day, I started this blog. In the summer of 2008, I had a second free minute, and opened a bakery here on the island, and then put it online. I don't really sleep. I should be writing three separate blogs: family, island life, and knitting, but there aren't enough hours in the day. So it's all here: our crazy life on this rock in the middle of nowhere, Maine!
Welcome to my world!

Ooooh. So if you can knit lace, that means you can come play with us on Seasons of Lace http://seasonsoflace.com
Ooooooooooo...gotta love the sparkly stuff! Very pretty.
We all knew you could!
And another lace-knitter is born... welcome!
Woo hoo, it looks lovely so far, can't wait to see it! Maybe it's the shiny sparkly stuff you sekritly like ;)
i joined and turned down my first lace knit along I dont' know how many times because I knew I couldn't knit lace---what aurprise when the right yarn and the right pattern tell us otherwise and then you are hooked
Can't wait to see what that is when finished! What fibre is that, is that a Tilli Thomas? Love the color!
Breathtaking. Is it Tilli Tomas? I've been wanting some of that myself. Yum.
