it's happening.

 we are going camping this weekend. no backing out. because we've already paid for the spot. :) last weekend it was just far too wet. now we're stubbornly going. even if it does rain a little.

thank goodness the forecast doesn't look nearly as bad as it was last weekend.


of course this means that today is a bit of a crazy day. packing, grocery shopping and a trip to the library planned... and as we store our tent trailer about half an hour away, we have to go and get that too :) but it's all fun... right?


naturally, i won't be forgetting my knitting. because umm all these pretty pics.. are of yarn i just got in the mail!!
squeee! and yes. 2 skeins have been wound into cakes already. i just might cast on for a(nother) project! haha.


i don't know why but i always have so many wips on the go. it works for me.


this weekend is a holiday weekend for us canadians as we are celebrating canada's birthday! :) so we'll be wearing red! i hope to pop in here on monday, but it may be a bit later in the day... as we'll be packing up the campsite in the morning. and of course, all of the canada day celebrations lie on monday as well.
and for those of you wondering what the yarn is ... it's all knit picks. the grey is stroll fingering in dove heather, and the rest are stroll tonal, in gypsy, blue yonder, springtime, and goldrush. droooool. check out the info here .

what are your plans for the weekend? what crafting will you be doing? you can be certain my knitting needles will be on fire! xo

    1. of course, rosa..we have to be used to camping in the rain. though a tent trailer sure beats a tent! ha. we packed up and went home a day early, while the tent trailer was still dry. but we had a lot of fun nonetheless. xo
