Thank you so much for visiting Life LDC here on Blogger and on YouTube! Documenting my monthly activity really keeps me on track and makes me think more about my knitting. (Is that possible?) What I mean is.....I am more focussed, less likely to get caught up in startitis :) or in buying yarn for that project that right now I love, but probably won't get to for months....and by that time I'll be enamoured by something else.....I know you understand that feeling!
Happy Knitting everyone!

Bead Whimsey with Sivia Harding That was the name of the class that I took at the Toronto Knitters Frolic.  I have attended many workshops in my time, so it takes a special workshop to catch my attention. Do you know her? I have to admit, I wasn't aware of Sivia's work until it was announced that she was the special guest for the Frolic.
