I was blessed today! See the shoes? I am a shoe fiend, and when my dear friend Jane showed these beauties at LaGuilde I was in love. But, sigh not within the budget. "Hey if you see those go on sale, let me know." I said, hoping beyond hope they might come within my price range. "What size do you wear?" Jane asked. (I wear a size 8 and Jane had two size 8s)
"You can have them." she said.....
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? I protested, that was just too generous. We started talking about something else and I intentionally forgot to try on the shoes. But, not Jane......
"Go try those shoes on" she said. My resistance was low (did I tell you how I love shoes?) and I tried them on. They fit!! I adore them! I am going to embroider them when I find the perfect pattern. Jane claims they are payment because I am driving her to Knit Michigan for her book signing. (Jane is legally blind.) I know better she is just that way, too generous for her own good.
But gee whiz do I love those shoes!
On a crafty note, tomorrow is a dyeing day!
In the picture you see silk hankies, superwash sock yarn (for hxckari), merino roving and some yummy alpaca blend yarn.
