Limitations live only in our minds. If we use our imaginations, our possibilities become limitless. - Jamie Paolinetti

The quote above is apt this week.

Whenever I see a butterfly I immediately feel a sense of wonder and joy!

Seeing the Blue Morpho butterfly was one of the highlights of my travels in Mexico.

One day I would love to see the Monarch Butterflies in Michoacán, Mexico.

This week’s Top 10 in Craft features inspirational Butterfly Crafts.

On My Needles

Slowly, slowly would describe my knitting pace trying to complete the Plum Lotus Dishcloth by Kalurah Hudson for Knit Picks.

It will be lovely when it is finished 🙂

I am considering trying a pattern by the wonderful Hat Architect; Woolly Wormhead. I love her Katara design.

I have never done short rows, color work, sideways knit or grafting. I no doubt will be on a steep learning curve but I am up for the challenge!

Gorgeous Sock Yarn For Spring!
