There's an empty spot- must need to buy more yarn!

Well, dear reader, if I have any, it has finally happened- the hubs and I are empty nesters. After 35.7 years, 35.7 LONGGGGG years:) and believe it or not, I am a little sad about that. But we had more than our fair share of blessings in the kid department, so it makes sense that the time would come later rather than sooner. Though I don't feel that old:)!
It's been a long time since I last blogged. Life has happened in the interim and I will try to catch up as best and as honestly as I can.
Today I had the unsettling experience of putting all my craftuals in one space (well, except for the projects I'm keeping close at hand for TV knitting). It was a bit disconcerting to see all I had accumulated since getting back into knitting in a serious way (yeah right!) some 9 years ago.
On 9/22, Ye Olde Columbia Sip'N Knit is having a Yarn Swap and I am hoping to give away a bunch o'yarn in exchange for hopefully less it also nice yarn. HA! We shall see!
On the knitting front, I've finished an started a number of projects and, due to weight loss, had to frog and/or give away others.
Most recent finished, my version of EZ's Green Sweater:

And a red vest based upon Amy Christoffers Acer Cardigan:

That's all for now-- more to come soon:)!
Until then, God be with you 'til we meet again:)!+
