Syd – thanks for weighing in and I’m sorry the photo was disturbing for you. That was definitely not my intention! Of course I didn’t take it – I got it over at istock.com (a great source of photos from many different photographers.) I thought it was a good representation of lighting a fire to get us all going forward. (And he does look like he’s having rarin’ and ready to go. But then again, I am good at assuming to know what all animals must be thinking at any given time ….)

My Camp Loopy yarn is stuck in the mail service and Canada Post has locked out the postal workers. I will have to knit super fast when it gets here I guess.

Thought the photo of the turtle was fun, we have turtles all over the front lawn laying eggs in holes…

Waiting for the post lady to be allowed back into work

I understand many think the turtle thing is cute, but I found the picture quite disturbing. Sorry but I needed to voice that.

Hope you are all enjoying camp! Looking forward to seeing the knit a longs.

Love the turtle!! Love your two color choices together!! – green is a neutral and goes with everything – just look outside at nature
I would have participated with the KAL but had just started a lacey capelet for my daughter – a nursing mother who has a lot of nursing mom tank tops with the bra built in but needed something for being in ac and to help cover up when going visiting (only using one color – 3AM Enchantments (beautiful color to work with! – I had purchased it from Loopy Ewe) I have 16 more rows to go – but unfortunately with what is on my plate (work, things at home, etc) I am more like that dear turtle minus the “firecracker encouragement”

Sadly no camping for me. Because I, like Sheri am neglecting packing to move in favor of working on a project. I’m only moving about 15 miles away not all the way to the Rockies though.

Cast on — my first KAL — just love camping, even if it’s only virtual. Since this is purely recreational knitting — no stress, even with a Loopy contest deadline, it’s just a very simple knitted triangle at present. Having fun with the 2 beautiful soft hanks purchased right here.

Cast on during the bus ride to work, knit at lunch, and on the ride home so I’m off to a good start – especially since I picked a smaller project knowing my time would be limited for this first camp project. I’m staying in the hotel – I like my hot morning shower and didn’t want to wake up any cabin mates since I’m a night owl and an early riser. Working on the Flower Scarf from the blog free patterns so it should be done in no time – I hope.

Hi Sherri,
I JUST found your business and have been to your space twice. I love everything about it and I think your blog is so fun! But then I heard you are moving and moving the yarn with you!!! But I JUST found you!!!
Any way you could keep the physical business here in the Lou? Think about no packing, no moving, no finding new elves!

I’m just sayin’!
